Modifying the Washington commercial electronic mail act.

Summary

HB 2274 updates Washington's commercial email law to prohibit sending commercial emails or texts from a Washington computer, or to a Washington resident, that use another party's internet domain without permission or contain misleading subject lines. It lowers the minimum damage award for harmed recipients to $100 (or actual damages) and keeps a $1,000 minimum for affected online services. The law applies to any suit filed after June 11, 2026, even if the conduct happened earlier.
