Reuven Carlyle, D-Seattle, listens as he stands on the Senate floor Friday, Feb. 15, 2019, during debate in Olympia, Wash., on a measure sponsored by Carlyle that would repeal the death penalty in Washington state. The Senate on Friday approved the measure, which will now head to the House, just months after the state's Supreme Court unanimously struck down capital punishment as arbitrary and racially biased.
