Washington’s climate policy is failing. Federal policy is changing rapidly. Is there a way to promote environmental sustainability and prosperity? Join us May 22 in Spokane to discuss the future of environmental policy with the Lands Council and Kalispel Tribe. #waleg 1/2

Executive Vice President Greg Lane was on the Seattle Channel yesterday to represent BIAW and advocate for I-2066. A ban by any other name is still a ban. The people of Washington State deserve to choose how they get their energy. @greg_lane @SeattleChannel #YESonI2066 #waleg #naturalgas #biaw #energychoice

Advocates of the tax on carbon say removing the tax won't lower gas prices. Huh?!

This is the final straw. Because of this law and the many others that preceded it, attacking both families and companies, SpaceX will now move its HQ from Hawthorne, California, to Starbase, Texas.
So the state is the parent in California now @GavinNewsom?

I announced my plan to address Washington’s behavioral health crisis earlier today. With that, I make a promise to Washingtonians: As Governor, I will move my office to Western State Hospital and work out of the Hospital for a week.  I am committed to making behavioral health the urgent priority for state government that it is for people experiencing the impacts of this crisis firsthand.
Today, I released my plan to build the best behavioral health, mental health, and substance abuse support system in the country.  Fewer than half of individuals with a mental health disorder in Washington are getting proper treatment. As Governor, I will ensure our treatment and responses match the scale of the crisis. We must improve access and decrease wait times for Washington’s behavioral health programs. I will appoint the first-ever statewide Mental Health Director to implement reforms and coordinate a fragmented behavioral health system.  We will intervene in today’s crisis and prevent tomorrow’s crisis.

A handful of anonymous activists desperate to protect failing public schools accuse charter school supporters of racism. But what is more racist than locking minority children into failing schools? I understand why they want to remain anonymous #waleg washingtonstatestandard.com/…
