To realize this future, we must do it together with our partners. Few are as critical in this effort as Washington state’s tribal communities. I am introducing legislation that provides a stronger, clearer consultation process. We make progress when we work together. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

We must restore the green corridors along rivers and streams known as riparian habitat, which keeps the water clean and cool. Our legislation sets a unique ecological blueprint for each river and stream habitat to conserve and restore these critical lands. — PolitiTweet.org

As the future of salmon goes, so goes the future of our state. Our region’s salmon are threatened by climate change, pollution and habitat loss. My budget would put $187 million toward salmon recovery. #ActionThisDay #StateoftheStateWA — PolitiTweet.org

Through legislation, we can rev up this future and make new and existing buildings perform better. We can modernize regulations, incentivize industry to ensure clean energy projects are built here in WA with living-wage jobs and make electric vehicles more affordable. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Legislators can be proud their work created policies that will remove 43.5 million metric tons of emissions annually. But to meet our statutory commitment, we have to reduce emissions by 6 million more metric tons per year to reach our 2030 emissions limits. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

My budget builds on the work we’ve done previously and puts $626 million more toward this noble effort. Together, we are charting a path to fight climate change by cutting greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2030 and get to net-zero by 2050. — PolitiTweet.org

She said this: “The most important thing we need to survive is the ability to breathe clean air.” Our planet’s fragile state is clear on the ground as well. #ClimateChange is not merely a graph on a slide deck with an arrow pointed at calamity. — PolitiTweet.org

I recently spoke with astronaut Kayla Barron, a Richland High School graduate, aboard the @NASA @Space_Station. She is amazed by how thin our atmosphere is. At night there is a burnt orange glow at its edge, revealing how paper thin the layer is between a livable world & nothing. — PolitiTweet.org

Young people in foster care and their families have also been uniquely impacted by the pandemic. My budget offers $80 million to pay providers more for housing and support foster youth with complex needs, helps young people transition out of foster care and more. #ActionThisDay — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

As a result of COVID19, students have lost opportunities during remote learning and many still struggle to adjust. I propose reinvesting $900 million to help schools address students’ critical needs. Educators, when empowered, can develop solutions to overcome opportunity gaps. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

My budget also reflects a $125 million reinvestment fund to address economic and social disparities and take direct action in reducing poverty, using recommendations from my Poverty Reduction Workgroup. #ActionThisDay #StateoftheStateWA — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

We must pass legislation that removes antiquated barriers to middle housing options in our cities – such as duplexes and town homes – and provides more housing supply to make it available to all income levels. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

My supplemental budget includes an unprecedented $815 million investment in safe housing for those experiencing homelessness, creating more options for those struggling with housing availability and needing behavioral health services. We need more rapid supportive housing, now. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

We must take action this day to fight homelessness, reverse social and economic disparities, to educate our children and serve those in foster care, to fund our transportation system, to protect our salmon and orca and to fight the threat of climate change. #ActionThisDay — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

It's not an accident that our state continues to be named one of the best places anywhere to live, work and do business. Legislators have a lot to be proud of, but now as we enter 2022, we are going to be called upon to do more. #ActionThisDay #StateoftheStateWA — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

The Legislature #waleg has been a strong partner in the COVID19 pandemic. Last session, they extended 26 emergency orders through the end of the pandemic and made laudable investments in our recovery efforts. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

As we mourn the 10,000 losses to COVID19, let us also realize that because of our actions, we have saved thousands of Washingtonians and we are still doing everything possible to keep people safe statewide. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

I am happy to welcome our new members in the Senate- @SenatorTrudeau, Senator John Lovick and Rep. Brandy Donaghy in the House. #ActionThisDay #StateoftheStateWA — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Thank you to our frontline workers, educators and childcare providers, and our state employees for all they’ve done the last two years. Thank you to those who administer emergency services and plow the roads to keep WA moving. You are all heroes and we are grateful. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

We know every day of this legislative session is an opportunity to make good on our commitments and to change the course of our future for the better. We have begun a short session with a long list of things to get done. We need ACTION. #ActionThisDay #StateoftheState #WA — PolitiTweet.org
