Initiative 2117 was funded by a millionaire hedge fund owner from California with ties to the fossil fuel industry. This initiative will cut investments in clean energy, transportation, healthy forests, and more. LET’S VOTE NO! seattletimes.com/opinion/cli…

Here's how Rick Steves is voting on WA I-2117 | Op-Ed

The most powerful thing you can do as a Washingtonian — and as a citizen of our country and world — is to vote with our environment in mind.

Haven’t filled out your ballots yet? Here’s a reminder to reject the efforts of powerful interests: NO on Initiative 2066 Attacks energy efficiency and would increase your energy bills. NO on Initiative 2109 This would strip billions of $$$ from public schools and childcare.

NO on Initiative 2117 Stop the effort to remove limits on pollution & gut funds for salmon habitat restoration & transportation infrastructure. NO on Initiative 2124 This would increase healthcare costs and medical debt by taking away long-term care benefits.

Among the many exciting features of Mount Vernon’s new Library Commons building is its public EV charging station—now one of the largest in the US. I agree with Senator Cantwell that transit-oriented projects like this create more livable communities. bellinghamherald.com/news/st…

Mount Vernon has just opened its Library Commons project, boasting a massive children’s library, ample parking with EV chargers & a community kitchen. It’s being hailed as a “national model” for rural development and I’m proud to have supported it. cascadiadaily.com/2024/oct/0…

I support the efforts of Bellingham council members to get rid of junk fees for tenants. Costs to renters should be upfront and consistent, not hidden and piecemeal. These costs create added barriers to stable housing. bellinghamherald.com/news/po…

Bellingham City Council will consider measure to curtail rental home ‘junk fees’

Proposed ordinance caps application fees and other “hidden” costs to renters.
