Transportation
What’s happening? Washington State Governor Inslee, who when a Presidential candidate promoted banning gas vehicles, vetoed a measure that would prohibit the sale of gas powered vehicles beginning in 2030.
Why is this important? The veto came because of the the provision requiring a statewide legislative framework for a pay as your drive program to fund roads.
How will this be important? Road funding is complicated. Check that all the i’s are dotted and all the t’s are crossed. ” Inslee said the goal of 100% electric vehicles is “too important to tie to the implementation of a separate policy like the road usage charge.”
