Vote yes on all 4 INITIATIVES!! Ferguson is lying to you, always has, always will. Think about how much he's fighting and using our own money on commercials against us!
Repeal
No. Nope.
I can’t understand why people would want to not vote yes, they are taxing us to death!
If we passed this and repealed this carbon tax.The state would just turn around and tell us that either we didn't know what we were voting on or just ignore what we voted for.
They did that multiple times to us for Term Limits for our politicians and for our thirty-five dollar car tabs.
Gonna be a no from me dawg.
Why are you advocating for taxation?
Why should it be repealed? Because gas went up .50 per gallon the first day it took affect.
Phag state
Who do they survey?
I've never been surveyed.
People are struggling to make ends meet with high inflation. Now is not the time to put your foot on their throats
Repeal it. You and I would pay for it. Don’t be stupid.
The only poll that matters isn't even officially held until November 5.
Nice try, KING5. We see you.
Who benefits from not repealing this? Chinese companies and big government. Not the average Washingtonian.
Well that’s a horrible idea! We have paid so much on BS studies yet they are trying to allow a battery storage in the Skagit Valley? It’s the not in my back yard BS from those city dwellers. The climate commitment act is just another way to allow more of the same terrible tactics. Repeal it.
The powers that be say the climate commitment act is to save the environment while the same people sell off forested land from the DNR to enable more urbanization which is the #1 driver of salmon and Steelhead decline and climate change locally.
Nothing is more important to Washington state Democrat's than tax dollars.
The taxes from these scams only makes the middle class poorer and funnels money to politically mobbed up special interest groups and will do nothing to benefit the environment.
Voted to repeal!
Vote yes on all 4 initiatives that Inslee voted in against our will in the middle of the nite.
Washington is obviously enjoy paying the highest gas prices in the nation because of this extra tax. Curiously, they don’t really know where this money is going. Or they won’t say.
GTFO polluters!
accelerate everything. lets see how anything and everything winds up in its end status. your a liar before you even speak in todays culture of BS. It's not hard to understand… the gov hates you and needs to be much much much smaller. fin.
Another reason for the mass exodus of industry from Washington.
Repeal repeal repeal repeal
This is a complete lie payed for by democrats
If WA residents keep this carbon (gasoline) tax, then no one can complain anymore about how we have the 2nd highest gas taxes in the continental USA (only behind California).
Wouldn’t matter anyway. No chance dem judges would let it go thru.
Why would anyone vote no? It is hidden taxes
Have no fear: If Voters (even overwhelmingly) repeal the Climate Commitment Act, Olympia will simply overturn the Will of the Voters — you know: like they did with our Voter-approved "$30 Tabs" vote. If you think your common-sense vote counts in WA State, you are delusional. But… I stand behind voting so we can at least get that fuzzy feeling, anyway. Don't let the fact that gasoline in WA is about $1 more per-gallon than many other States — according to the Media, you're just imagining that.
I can't believe this state. It just pulls em down and bends over year after year.
You can not make company who has pricing power pay penalty. Instead incentives for clean R&D. I doubt it was about the planet to begin with.
The polls are reflective of a system that desires the results. Not a result of an informed public.
Big money trying to keep us slaves vote yes.
no, no, no, no
Good lord ,the world is burning and you're busy playing your Violin !
Y'all been voting democratic since 1981 nothing is ever going to get better
Get rid of this garbage act among others

Who are you polling? Citizens voted against carbon taxes when we got the chance to vote. Then our not so representatives decided to put it through anyway. Vote yes pay less on all initiatives.
I don't care about the planet, but it funds schools and public transit. so I'm voting no. otherwise yeah, I would have voted to repeal it because the climate isn't my problem
We are supposed to trust government with our money. I am more than happy to give them all of my money. Lol
The carbon tax was copied from Canada where they have repeatedly increased the tax which is decimating the middle class, as intended. They don't dare speak on the environmental impact of manufacturing of EV's where drinking water systems are destroyed in the slave labor mining of minerals for batteries. Guess it's ok if drinking water in China and Africa is destroyed as long as it's not in your backyard. In the 70's they told us repeatedly we are approaching another global ice-age. Wake the 48% out of their deep sleep.
I’m a hardcore Dem and I can’t wait to vote to repeal this stupid tax law
I love this state
