(Olympia, WA)  --  Lawmakers from both sides of the aisle want to review Washington's laws regarding the sentencing of criminals.  Spokane Valley Senator Mike Padden says his legislation contains a provision to review the state's Sentencing Reform Act of 1981, a law which mandated a tougher stance on crime.  The measure calls for hiring a consultant to work alongside the Sentencing Guidelines Commission, which advises the governor and the Legislature on sentencing policies.  Padden says he'll push to have the bill passed during the special session.
