STATE GOVERNMENT
Coalition: Pass state transportation package… now!
OLYMPIA (May 14, 2013) — As was the case with last year’s successful effort to approve the “Jobs Now” bonds package, a strong coalition of labor, business, environmental and local government interests are coming together in the special session to urge the 2013 State Legislature to pass a transportation package that makes a significant investment in Washington’s crumbling transportation infrastructure. And to do it now.
“It is time to do the right thing and begin investing in a 21st Century transportation system.”
The following video released this week features labor, business, environmental and local government leaders calling for passage of a strong transportation package… now! It was prepared by the Greater Seattle Chamber of Commerce with the assistance of Washington State Labor Council Communications Director Kathy Cummings.
