    Legislative Building Washington State Legislature Olympia, WA 98504-0600 6 July, 2021 The Honorable Patty Murray, U.S. Senator The Honorable Maria Cantwell, U.S. Senator The Honorable Suzan DelBene, U.S. Representative, 1st District The Honorable Rick Larsen, U.S. Representative, 2nd District The Honorable Jami Herrera Beutler, U.S. Representative, 3rd District The Honorable Dan Newhouse, U.S. Representative, 4th District The Honorable Cathy McMorris Rodgers, U.S. Representative, 5th District The Honorable Derek Kilmer, U.S. Representative, 6th District The Honorable Pramila Jayapal, U.S. Representative, 7th District The Honorable Kim Schrier, U.S. Representative, 8th District The Honorable Adam Smith, U.S. Representative, 9th District The Honorable Marilyn Strickland, U.S. Representative, 10th District Dear Members of Washington’s federal delegation: Washington State has taken the climate crisis seriously with the passage of new laws and regulations and committing billions in new investments that we know we need to transition our economy away from fossil fuels. 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.
