Momentum Builds as Cap & Invest Clears Key Senate Committee

Thanks to Senators Carlyle, Hobbs, Das, Liias, Nguyen, Stanford and Wellman for their leadership in bringing historic progress on climate policy to Olympia! 

This morning, the Senate Environment, Energy and Technology Committee passed the cap & invest Climate Commitment Act by a vote of 7 to 3. It becomes the only carbon pricing bill that has passed a committee this session accelerating momentum for this essential climate action.
