| This measure was not put on an election ballot |
The Washington State Song, Initiative 1158, did not appear on the November 2011 statewide ballot in Washington as an Initiative to the People.
The proposed measure would have changed the official Washington state song from “Washington My Home” to “Not In Our House” by Sir-Mix-A-Lot. The official state song would have remained “Not In Our House” until a city in the state received an NBA franchise basketball team. The state song would have changed back to “Washington My Home” upon the time of the franchise’s first home game.[1]
The measure was sponsored by Kristopher Brannon.
