If Trump won’t fight climate change, we will.

With President Trump’s decision to pull out of the Paris Climate Agreement, we must work to pass a strong climate policy here in Washington. The truth is that we can make our biggest impacts here where we live.

Email your legislators to support the carbon tax proposal in Olympia. HB 1646/SB 5509 would reduce carbon pollution, help fix our state’s upside down tax code, and invest in the communities hurt most by climate change.

Subject: Pass a Strong Climate Policy in Washington

Personalize your message

President Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Paris climate agreement is a national embarrassment that threatens the health and safety of our communities. In the absence of national leadership, Washington state must take strong action to fight climate change.

I strongly support the policies of HB 1646/SB 5509 that put a price on carbon and invest the proceeds in a just transition to clean energy. These bills creates jobs by investing in clean energy, clean water, and healthy forests to reduce carbon pollution and address the impacts of climate change. The bill creates an innovative, performance-based carbon tax that scales in response to progress in reducing emissions. By targeting a share of investments to communities most burdened by pollution, climate threats, and poverty, the policy will spur an equitable shift to a clean energy economy. Through creating good jobs and supporting workers and households with lower incomes, it ensures no one is left behind.

I urge you to support this equitable and effective approach to addressing climate change and transitioning to a clean energy economy.
