  • Washington State Senate
    Washington State Senate Chair Fitzgibbon, Thank you for your dedication to pursuing the Low Carbon Fuel Standard for our state. While we sometimes disagree on the methods, we all share a commitment to ensuring our state does its part in reducing our carbon footprint to address climate change. As you know, HB 1091 passed the Senate Thursday night on a vote of 27-20. Our five votes represent more than the margin of passage and it is crucial that you know the changes made to the legislation in the Senate were integral to our support for the bill. We worked closely with our partners in the Building Trades to make sure all voices were heard. As we likely head to conference, these are the Senate changes to the legislation that must stay in the final bill to earn our support: • Ensure that this policy does not dramatically increase the cost of fuel, which is a burden that will likely fall on consumers and disproportionately impact those who can least afford it. • Ensure that Washington State benefits from the jobs created by the additional money that will be spent by consumers on low carbon fuels. This includes new biofuel facilities in Washington and an assurance that some of the crops used to make those fuels come from our state. • The bill must maintain a link to the transportation package. • Maintain the legislative review beyond the 10% threshold so that elected officials can weigh the efficiency of the policy after implementation. Addressing our climate impacts doesn’t have to be just a bitter pill.

January 21, 2020 Chairperson Reuven Carlyle Vice-Chairperson Liz Lovelett Ranking Member Doug Ericksen Honorable Bob Hasegawa Honorable Joe Nguyen Members, Senate Environment, Energy & Technology Committee Re: Electronics Manufacturers Opposition to Senate Bill 5799 Dear Chairperson Carlyle, Vice-Chairperson Lovelett, Ranking Member Ericksen, Senator Hasegawa and Senator Nguyen: On behalf of the hundreds of manufacturers and businesses our organizations represent, we respectfully oppose Senate Bill 5799 (SB 5799) legislation which would mandate original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) of digital electronic equipment or a part of the equipment sold in Washington to provide independent repair providers with diagnostic and repair information, software, tools and parts. Our organizations represent a broad spectrum of manufacturers of consumer electronics, home appliances, HVACR, security equipment, toys, lithium ion batteries, and other connected electronic products as well as companies that rely on the secure operation of these devices. All of these companies stand behind the quality of their products. Our members develop products and services for a wide range of commercial, government, and consumer users. Their customers depend on these products to operate safely, securely, and accurately, whether they are being used to support banking and commercial transactions, transmit and store sensitive personal data, support industrial operations, medical applications, or securely offer and deliver entertainment and other services. As businesses, government agencies, and consumers continue to increase their reliance on connected devices to help deliver efficiency, convenience and services, it is important to remain vigilant and focused on mitigating the risks associated with the safe and secure operation of those products.

These infrastructure investments—in things like mass transit, vehicle and ferry electrification, clean buildings, and more—are a bedrock to our state’s competitive edge. Washington State is also experiencing extreme and historic heat waves and drought conditions. We are at severe risk of a wildfire season even worse than last year, and many of the federal hydropower dams that are an essential component of our region’s infrastructure are likely to produce significantly less of the clean power that our economy relies. Climate policy is economic policy and the historic commitments Washington State has made will help protect the health and wealth of our state for generations.

They cannot undo the actions of the man who ended his life. They cannot erase the history of racism and racial violence that blinded that man to George Floyd’s humanity, and gave him such a sense of impunity that he believed he could snuff out another person’s life without consequences. “But today: George Floyd’s killer did face consequences. We use our words now to commend this outcome – a just verdict and rare accountability, for George Floyd’s loved ones and Black Americans in our state and country – but also to reiterate our commitment to making sure that justice is not rare. That accountability is not uncertain. That another father, friend, or neighbor is not another victim. That Black Lives Matter. “Words cannot undo what went wrong – but they can set us on the path to what is right.
