Mosbrucker Bill For Youth Suicide Panel Under Consideration In Committee

The Washington House Children, Youth and Families Committee is expected to take action later this week on a bill by 14th District Reprsentative Gina Mosbrucker that would create a team of experts to look into the reason for suicides of young people up to the age of 25.  The committee held a public hearing on House Bill 1354 last week.  Under the bill, the Washington Youth Suicide Review Team is instructed to perform an in-depth review of each instance where a person under age 25 has died by suicide during the 2020 calendar year, excluding suicides on tribal reservations if the trial government opposes the review.  The measure has been scheduled for committee action either Wednesday or Thursday.
