What @daveupthegrovecpl.bsky.social said
Trump’s forest executive order uses wildfires as an excuse to gut protections, reward timber companies, and push for more tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. Commissioner Upthegrove is right: 'That’s not smart forest management. That’s not good government. We deserve better.'

How the Pacific Northwest’s dream of green energy fell apart
Oregon and Washington passed aggressive goals to decarbonize their power supply but left it to the Bonneville Power Administration to build the transmission lines needed for wind and solar. The agency hasn’t delivered.

Thank you @repemilyrandall.bsky.social and @murray.senate.gov for your leadership on this opportunity. Let’s lock in protections for our Olympics!
Today I’m reintroducing my bill to permanently protect the #WildOlympics with @repemilyrandall.bsky.social.
The Wild Olympics are a crown jewel of Washington state, bringing together families and people from all walks of life—& our bill will ensure they can be enjoyed by generations to come.

We'll be monitoring this closely in Washington state. The initial targets appear to be in other states.
Trump’s mine-everywhere order calls for a list of public land with potential mineral deposits and the prioritization of mining on those lands. Numerous national monuments have clear targets on their backs due to mining claims or previous industry conflict in their protections.

🔥⛺ Federal budget cuts are leaving our parks understaffed and weakening wildfire response. Washington must stand strong. @governorferguson.bsky.social, let’s ensure our state doesn’t make the same mistake. No cuts to parks, clean air, and water! #ProtectWAParks #InvestInWA
