Next month’s election could potentially be historic for Washington State, where voters have the choice of enacting the first-in-the-nation carbon fee.
Measure 1631 has the support of several prominent Washington-based businesses including REI, Expedia, Microsoft and Northwest Energy, and over 100 businesses in total. Many eyes will be on the results, because if Washington passes a carbon fee, it’s likely only a matter of time before other states follow.
