This fall, the Northwest won big on climate action
Despite a bleak outlook for climate action nationally, the people of the Pacific Northwest showed up in a big way this November, demonstrating that when communities get organized and work together for a healthier future, we can accomplish remarkable victories.
After a Decisive Victory on the Ballot, the CCA is Here to Stay
Voters made their values loud and clear in November- they want Washington to lead on climate. With the CCA firmly defended, the final CCA allowance auction of 2024 brought in an additional quarter Billion dollars for climate investments.
Leading on climate in the Northwest (despite strong headwinds)
While national election results represent a monumental step backward, results in the Pacific Northwest show that voters and diverse coalitions in our region want to keep going, to do more to protect our residents, and to lead on climate and clean air.
Cleaner air, happy students, can't lose!
Washington’s students and schools will receive considerable benefits from the Climate Commitment Act, but Initiative 2117 threatens these critical investments.
Join Governor Inslee and fight Initiative 2117!
The clock is ticking! Ballots drop in just two weeks—we need to act NOW. Let's hit the doors together!
Clean energy progress in the balance
A new study confirms that Washington's landmark climate law is on track to catalyze more than $9.1 billion in economic output and create more than 45,000 jobs over eight years. Unless it's repealed.
Washington climate advocates, it's time to suit up!
We are spreading the word across the state to make sure people vote NO on I-2117 to protect our air and water, forests and farmland, jobs, and transportation investments. And NO on I-2066 to protect energy efficiency programs and keep energy costs from rising.

Because of your efforts, the Northwest is headed in the right direction on climate and clean energy!. But this fall, we've got to be fired up to protect our clean air, our clean transportation, our clean energy jobs, as big-spending fossil fuel allies try to push us backwards.
