Friends,
Washington drivers just got more bad news: we’re the only state where gas prices are higher than a year ago. Why? A heavy dose of homegrown policy failure from Olympia.
Democrats' Climate Commitment Act is doing exactly what critics warned: driving up fuel prices while doing nothing meaningful to reduce emissions. And what do we have to show for it?
- A state EV charger rollout that’s missing deadlines and wildly over budget.
- A ferry fleet in crisis—routes canceled, vessels aging out, and no viable electric ferries in sight despite hundreds of millions spent.
- Billions funneled to consultants, not results.
And it just got worse. Beginning yesterday, the state added another 6 cents per gallon gas tax hike—with automatic inflation increases baked in to keep the punishment going for years.
Washington Democrats have built a system where working families get squeezed, while special interests cash in. They say it’s about climate—but the emissions aren’t dropping, the infrastructure’s not working, and prices just keep rising.
We need your help to stop the madness. Shift WA is fighting back – exposing the waste, calling out the lies, and rallying voters to demand real accountability.
Pitch in $25, $50, or whatever you can to fuel the fight.
Let’s stop paying more for failed policies and start putting Washington taxpayers first.
Thank you,
The Shift WA Team
