  • Possible Executive Session on Bills Heard in Committee
    Washington State Senate 206 Irv Newhouse Building PO Box 40462 Phone: (360) 786-7566 Olympia, WA 98504-0462 Republican Caucus FAX: (360) 786-7173 March 27, 2020 Governor Jay Inslee Office of the Governor PO BOX 40002 Olympia, WA 98504-0002 Dear Governor Inslee, During this time of crisis, it is important that we put aside minor differences and come together to work for the common good of all Washingtonians. For that reason we have made it a priority to work with you and your agencies to help prevent the spread of coronavirus, giving you a broad amount of leeway to make decisions you see as appropriate to help curb the transmission of the disease – without questioning those actions. We have also brought our concerns, and those of the people we represent, directly to you and your agency officials. We are, however, aware that government is acting inconsistently – and when that happens during an emergency, public confidence can be shaken at a time when it is needed most. We therefore write to once again voice our concern at the lack of a consistent response from you on the issue of residential construction and the essential nature of that industry in our state. The clarification issued by your office on March 25, regarding your “Stay Home, Stay Healthy” order of March 23 stated that most commercial and residential construction should be considered a non-essential activity, effectively shutting down residential construction and ordering workers to remain at home. We could not disagree more. The people of Washington rely on the residential construction industry to not only provide housing, but to maintain housing structures and make sure that they do not present a danger to individuals.

  • Washington State Legislature Olympia, WA 98504-0600
    Legislative Building Washington State Legislature Olympia, WA 98504-0600 January 25, 2021 The Honorable Governor Inslee PO Box 40002 Olympia, WA 98504 Dear Governor Inslee, We thank you for your service to our State. For the constituents and citizens of Pierce County, the passage of the Connecting Washington package offered the promise of accomplishing a 40-year dream—the completion of State Route 167. Yet, weeks before a key stage of the project was to go out to bid, you unilaterally decided to freeze it. We are writing to express our extreme disappointment and frustration with what we believe to be a short-sighted decision. We are confident you are fully aware that the Puget Sound Gateway package was the keystone project in Connecting Washington, drawing support for the overall package from over 165 business, labor, agriculture, maritime, and local government organizations from around the state. They all recognized the central importance this project plays in supporting the competitiveness of our ports and their labor partners, growers, shippers, and manufacturers who seek access to the global marketplace. In fact, you led the cutting of the ribbon to start this project. Delaying it threatens the state’s economic recovery, serves as a complete disregard to that coalition of project advocates, and does a disservice to all the working families that will benefit from this project. We are very disappointed in your decision. The last year has highlighted the importance of a well-functioning supply chain. While there has been a reduction in transportation revenue across many categories of funding because of remote work and social distancing, diesel tax revenue has remained relatively stable.
