Inslee Asks For Transportation Package in State of the State Address
In his State of the State address yesterday, Washington Governor Jay Inslee challenged the Senate to pass a transportation package to restart negotiations with the House, which passed a plan last year.
He also called for action on climate change, although he didn't mention any specifics. Republicans say that if that action includes promoting low-carbon fuels that raise the price of gas, they'll oppose it.
The Spokesman-Review tells us why, plus has the full report on Inslee's State of the State speech.
