No on I-2117 – August 16, 2024

Washington’s public employees union (WFSE) just weighed in: They’re voting NO on 2117.

“We need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions all across the planet, and this law allows us to be a leader, nationwide and worldwide. But it’s also funding so many different investments to protect our forests, protect our water, protect human health, and to give people the tools that they need to protect themselves. All of that is going to be stripped away. We would be taking many steps backwards in our ability to protect people, and it’s going to cost people’s lives and livelihoods. It would really deteriorate our quality of life.” — Felipe Flores, WFSE Local 443 Member, Dept. of Health

This is a major show of support from the people who make Washington work. They know that I-2117 would cut funding, threaten public health, and jeopardize raises for hardworking people. It’s unacceptable.

We need to build on this momentum and make sure Washingtonians hear about this. Chip in to hit our flash goal of $2,500 by 8/18.

Onward,

No on 2117
