Great news for our southern resident orcas — HB 1578, which improves oil spill prevention in busy Puget Sound, has passed the Legislature. Many thanks to Rep. Lekanoff for helping to make this happen. #waleg #zerospillswa #SRKW — PolitiTweet.org

This week #waleg made historic commitments to the well-being and health of Washingtonians by passing all four of our bills to transform WA's #behavioralhealth system. Thanks to both chambers for your bipartisan support. I’m looking forward to them coming to my desk for signing. — PolitiTweet.org

I am deeply saddened to hear about this. Jess Roskelley was an inspiration to climbers young and old. Together with his father John, they epitomized a great climbing tradition. Trudi and I send condolences to the families of all who were lost. https://t.co/aLnmEF6u7N — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to our former governors and the incredible number of community leaders and advocates who came to Olympia to speak out on I-1000, a well-reasoned policy that will bring more equity and opportunity for all Washingtonians. #waleg https://t.co/2e7Ahk3PDY — PolitiTweet.org

From advancing labor protections and expanding health care to tackling homelessness and building new transit and mobility options, @KingCountyWA is an important partner. There's more to do, but I know we’re up to the challenge. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

With the region growing faster than ever before, I appreciate @kcexec Dow Constantine and all who are working to tackle both the challenges and opportunities facing @KingCountyWA. — PolitiTweet.org

Cecile Lindquist was a great friend of the Inslees and a hugely passionate advocate for all kids in Washington state. Trudi and I are deeply saddened by her passing. https://t.co/88CC7gTGfm — PolitiTweet.org

Today I was proud to acknowledge @wastatepatrol Chief John Batiste for his 40 years of service to Washington state. A lot of what I've been able to accomplish as governor is because of the great support and work of Chief Batiste and his team. Thank you for all that you do. https://t.co/LQpjyga3gv — PolitiTweet.org

This means you can’t be denied insurance after surviving cancer, it means you can’t be forced into bankruptcy because of a lifetime cap, and it means you can’t be forced to pay for basic and essential health benefits such as contraception and mammograms. #waleg #ACA — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Today I signed a bill that protects Affordable Care Act health care insurance practices in WA state. This bill assures Washingtonians that regardless of what happens in D.C., we’re protecting your access to care here here at home. #waleg #ACA https://t.co/e3g35Fch68 — PolitiTweet.org

We’re helping lead the nation’s transition to a carbon-free electric grid. With these latest grants, our state Clean Energy Fund helps WA’s leading utilities, along with their technology partners and customers, move the industry closer to a low-carbon future. #cleanenergy — PolitiTweet.org

Trudi and I are saddened to hear of former Sen. Margarita Prentice passing. As a nurse and legislator, she served her community and constituents. She helped lead WA through difficult times during her six-years as Ways & Means chair. We send condolences to her family and friends. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Today #waleg moved on bills that protect WA by phasing down super-polluting hydrofluorocarbon #greenhousegases and raising #EnergyEfficiency for buildings and appliances. More to do, but thanks to @BethDoglio, @joefitzgibbon, Morris @TheRostrum, @Reuvencarlyle & @WAStateCommerce. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Our hearts go out to the family of the Cowlitz County deputy killed in the line of duty last night. Every one of these tragedies is a reminder that these men and women put their lives on the line every day in service to us all. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Today we recognize the tremendous contributions volunteers make to communities across our state. I encourage all Washingtonians to honor Volunteer Appreciation Day, remember to thank a volunteer and find a way to #getinvolved. #GoVolunteer — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

We must be creative and innovative if we're going to fix the homelessness crisis for all Washingtonians. Critical community partners like @HomesFirst and @cysoly create safe, affordable options to get young adults housed and set up for long term success. https://t.co/H7LObEDpL4 — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to @gaeltarleton, @joefitzgibbon and the House for passing our clean energy bill. This landmark legislation will help us secure #100percentclean electricity for Washington. #waleg — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

The #waleg took a huge step to save Southern Resident orcas in passing HB 1579. Thank you to Rep. @joefitzgibbon for leading this bill, which increases the amount of Chinook salmon and other prey to feed our orcas. #SRKW — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

You can make simple changes in your driving habits and save a life. This is something each and every one of us can do behind the wheel. I extend a big thank you to what our road crews do for Washington state. #Orange4Safety @wsdot https://t.co/cX4qmVLZ61 — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

We stand with governors and attorneys general across the country in opposing this dangerous attack on our environment and our families’ right to clean water. We'll challenge any attempt by the administration to illegally constrain WA’s authority to protect our natural resources. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

No amount of politicking will change the facts — states have full authority under the #CleanWater Act to protect our waters and our people. WA won't allow this or any presidential administration to block us from exercising our authority lawfully and effectively. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

President Trump announced today an executive order curtailing states' legal authority under the Clean Water Act. This is an unprecedented assault on the right and obligation of every state to protect their waters and their communities. https://t.co/5MfV775xjJ https://t.co/2d650GHy3L — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Good start to budget negotiations. House and Senate budget leaders and my staff just finished their first meeting. It was a positive and productive conversation with another session coming up in the morning as we all work to adjourn on time. #waleg — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Open internet is as critical as freedom of speech. I'm glad to see the US House pass the #SavetheNet Act today to restore #NetNeutrality in all 50 states, protecting unfettered access for all Americans. The Senate should take it up without delay. #USleg https://t.co/6bVXRGMoIw https://t.co/3T8YNcwRJa — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Glad to be here and I look forward to a great conversation this morning. — PolitiTweet.org

Today @wsdot workers are going #Orange4Safety during National Work Zone Awareness Week. This display of barrels and a truck recently crushed in a work zone is one of several across the state. Please, remember to #slowdown and pay attention near all work zones. #GiveEmABrake https://t.co/thTJNyf2xG — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to @UW_MBB player @MatisseThybulle for winning the 2019 Naismith Defensive Player of the Year Award. Today @UW President Ana Mari Cauce and I snapped a photo with these Husky purple flowers to celebrate. Go Dawgs! https://t.co/uB8mnfFGRA https://t.co/YbrQrE55Hw — PolitiTweet.org

We know the risks associated with tobacco and nicotine. It is easier to prevent our children from becoming addicted in the first place than to treat the addiction later, or even worse, treat the cancers and diseases caused by smoking. #waleg #Tobacco21 https://t.co/51hyaK4b7M — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

95 percent of smokers start before the age of 21. Today WA joins the growing number of states and 400+ cities that recognize the opportunity to save lives by raising the age for purchasing tobacco and vaping products to 21. The #Tobacco21 law WILL save lives. #waleg — PolitiTweet.org
