What does RCW mean?

The Revised Code of Washington (RCW) is the compilation of all permanent laws now in force. It is a collection of Session Laws (enacted by the Legislature and signed by the Governor or enacted via the initiative process) arranged by topic, with amendments added and repealed laws removed. It does not include temporary laws such as appropriations acts.
