Fifty-two percent of voters approved I-2066 of the measure last month
Seattle and King County are subverting the will of voters and the initiative process by suing over the natural gas initiative (I-2066), signed by more than 550,000 Washingtonians, according to Let’s Go Washington. Fifty-two percent of voters approved of the measure last month.
Actions meant to undermine the will of voters is precisely why the WAGOP (Washington State Republican Party) launched its Project to Resist Tyranny in Washington, recently.
“This project is designed to prevent elected officials with authoritarian impulses from ruining the lives of people living in Washington,” says WAGOP Chairman Jim Walsh. “It is also designed to protect free people from retaliation by state government agencies because of those people’s political beliefs or voting records.”
Instead of defending the initiative process, protected by the Washington State Constitution, Democrat politicians are pandering to the far-left climate mob.
“It’s not every day you start publicizing a lawsuit but when we think our planet, our air, and our water and how we are trying to save this planet is affected, we will come together, and we will fight,” Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell told The Seattle Times. Under Harrell’s watch, violent crime & fentanyl deaths continue to skyrocket, but pandering to climate zealots ranks higher on his to-do list.
Harrell’s virtue-signaling fails to address the financial burden on homeowners. For those forced to electrify their homes, it could cost up to $70,000.
And instead of holding Democrat politicians, like Mayor Harrell, accountable, the local media, in classic form, prints vapid talking points, while pushing an extreme climate agenda.
Voters across Washington should be outraged.
