• 2:22
  who

  doesn't
• 2:23
  like
• 2:23
  that?
• 2:24
  Today
• 2:24
  I
• 2:25
  wanted
• 2:25
  to
• 2:25
  talk
• 2:25
  about
• 2:25
  a
• 2:25
  battle
• 2:26
  that's
• 2:26
  going
• 2:26
  on
• 2:26
  up
• 2:26
  in
• 2:27
  Washington
• 2:27
  state,
• 2:28
  not
• 2:28
  where
• 2:28
  I
• 2:28
  live,
• 2:28
  but
• 2:29
  close
• 2:29
  by.
• 2:31
  And
• 2:31
  the
• 2:31
  voters
• 2:32
  this
• 2:32
  last
• 2:32
  election
• 2:33
  did
• 2:33
  something
• 2:34
  surprising
• 2:34
  for
• 2:35
  Washington.
• 2:36
  They
• 2:36
  stood
• 2:36
  up
• 2:36
  for
• 2:37
  themselves
• 2:37
  and
• 2:38
  said,
• 2:38
  no,
• 2:39
  you're
• 2:39
  not
• 2:39
  going
• 2:39
  to
• 2:40
  legislate
• 2:41
  that
• 2:41
  out
• 2:42
  of
• 2:42
  us.
• 2:42
  What
• 2:42
  am
• 2:42
  I
• 2:42
  talking
• 2:43
  about?
• 2:43
  So
• 2:44
  nearly
• 2:44
  2
• 2:44
  million
• 2:45
  residents
• 2:45
  voted
• 2:45
  to
• 2:46
  approve
• 2:46
  Initiative
• 2:47
  2066,
• 2:48
  which
• 2:49
  aims
• 2:49
  to
• 2:49
  protect
• 2:50
  the
• 2:50
  use
• 2:50
  of
• 2:50
  natural
• 2:50
  gas
• 2:51
  as
• 2:51
  an
• 2:51
  energy
• 2:51
  source
• 2:52
  in
• 2:52
  state
• 2:52
  law
• 2:52
  and
• 2:53
  within
• 2:53
  Washington's
• 2:53
  building
• 2:54
  codes.
• 3:55
  This
• 3:55
  month's
• 3:56
  climate
• 3:56
  advocates
• 3:57
  joined
• 3:57
  by
• 3:58
  King
• 3:58
  county,
• 3:58
  which
• 3:59
  is
• 3:59
  the
• 3:59
  county
• 3:59
  around
• 4:00
  Seattle,
• 4:00
  and
• 4:00
  the
• 4:00
  city
• 4:01
  of
• 4:01
  Seattle
• 4:02
  filed
• 4:02
  suit
• 4:02
  in
• 4:02
  court
• 4:03
  to
• 4:03
  block
• 4:04
  the
• 4:04
  will
• 4:04
  of
• 4:05
  those
• 4:05
  voters.
• 4:06
  So
• 4:06
  here's
• 4:07
  what's
• 4:07
  been
• 4:07
  happening
• 4:07
  is
• 4:07
  they've
• 4:08
  been
• 4:08
  banning
• 4:08
  natural
• 4:08
  gas
• 4:09
  and
• 4:09
  new
• 4:09
  developments
• 4:10
  and
• 4:10
  people
• 4:10
  said,
• 4:11
  hey,
• 4:11
  no,
• 4:11
  we've
• 4:12
  had
• 4:12
  enough
• 4:12
  of
• 4:12
  it.
• 4:13
  And
• 4:13
  Washington
• 4:14
  state
• 4:14
  has
• 4:14
  a
• 4:14
  great
• 4:15
  initiative
• 4:15
  system
• 4:16
  where
• 4:16
  the
• 4:16
  voters
• 4:16
  can
• 4:17
  stand
• 4:17
  up
• 4:17
  and
• 4:17
  say
• 4:17
  we
• 4:17
  don't
• 4:18
  like
• 4:18
  what
• 4:18
  government's
• 4:18
  doing
• 4:19
  we're
• 4:19
  going
• 4:19
  to
• 4:19
  change
• 4:19
  the
• 4:20
  law.
• 4:21
  And
• 4:21
  you
• 4:21
  know
• 4:21
  something?
• 4:22
  Those
• 4:23
  people
• 4:23
  in
• 4:23
  King
• 4:24
  county
• 4:24
  and
• 4:24
  the
• 4:25
  governor
• 4:25
  love
• 4:25
  to
• 4:26
  try
• 4:26
  to
• 4:26
  go
• 4:26
  around
• 4:26
  that
• 4:27
  and
• 4:27
  beat
• 4:27
  that
• 4:27
  back
• 4:28
  down
• 4:28
  again.
• 4:28
  It's
• 4:29
  been
• 4:29
  happening
• 4:29
  for
• 4:30
  decades
• 4:30
  in
• 4:30
  Washington.
• 4:32
  Somehow
• 4:32
  they
• 4:33
  keep
• 4:33
  voting
• 4:33
  for
• 4:33
  the
• 4:33
  same
• 4:34
  people.
• 4:34
  But
• 4:34
  that's
• 4:35
  not
• 4:35
  my
• 4:36
  problem.
• 4:36
  I'm
• 4:36
  not
• 4:37
  a
• 4:37
  Washington
• 4:37
  voter.
• 4:39
  So
• 4:39
  the
• 4:39
  votes,
• 4:39
  the
• 4:40
  courts
• 4:40
  are
• 4:40
  gonna
• 4:40
  have
• 4:41
  a
• 4:41
  final
• 4:41
  say.
• 4:41
  But
• 4:42
  Governor
• 4:42
  Jay
• 4:42
  Ins
• 4:43
  and
• 4:43
  Democratic
• 4:44
  legislative
• 4:45
  leaders
• 4:45
  support
• 4:45
  killing
• 4:46
  off
• 4:46
  what
• 4:46
  they
• 4:46
  see
• 4:46
  as
• 4:47
  misguided
• 4:47
  and
• 4:48
  overly
• 4:48
  broad
• 4:49
  initiative.
• 4:50
  So
• 4:51
  they
• 4:51
  are
• 4:51
  trying
• 4:51
  to
• 4:51
  ban
• 4:52
  natural
• 4:52
  gas
• 4:52
  and
• 4:52
  the
• 4:53
  people
• 4:53
  of
• 4:53
  the
• 4:53
  state
• 4:53
  are
• 4:54
  saying,
• 4:54
  no,
• 4:55
  you
• 4:55
  don't
• 4:55
  get
• 4:55
  to
• 4:56
  do
• 4:56
  that.
• 4:57
  And
• 4:57
  now
• 4:57
  we're
• 4:57
  going
• 4:58
  to
• 4:58
  see
• 4:58
  some
• 4:58
  battles.
• 5:00
  So
• 5:00
  their
• 5:00
  view
• 5:00
  brushes
• 5:01
  aside
• 5:01
  the
• 5:01
  concerns
• 5:01
  of
• 5:02
  the
• 5:02
  majority
• 5:02
  of
• 5:02
  state
• 5:03
  voters.
• 5:03
  Those
• 5:04
  leaders
• 5:04
  fail
• 5:04
  to
• 5:04
  see
• 5:04
  a
• 5:04
  genuine
• 5:05
  fear
• 5:06
  that
• 5:06
  of
• 5:06
  course
• 5:07
  during
• 5:07
  this
• 5:07
  clean
• 5:08
  energy
• 5:08
  transition
• 5:09
  that
• 5:09
  their
• 5:09
  rates
• 5:09
  are
• 5:09
  going
• 5:10
  to
• 5:10
  go
• 5:10
  up,
• 5:10
  which
• 5:10
  they
• 5:11
  have
• 5:11
  been.
• 5:12
  A
• 5:12
  lot
• 5:12
  of
• 5:12
  people
• 5:12
  rely
• 5:13
  on
• 5:13
  that
• 5:13
  natural
• 5:14
  gas.
• 5:14
  They
• 5:14
  have
• 5:14
  natural
• 5:15
  gas
• 5:15
  furnaces.
• 5:15
  They
• 5:16
  have
• 5:16
  all
• 5:17
  the
• 5:17
  things,
• 5:17
  gas
• 5:18
  ranges,
• 5:18
  gas
• 5:19
  dryers,
• 5:19
  gas
• 5:19
  furnaces,
• 5:20
  all
• 5:20
  those
• 5:20
  things.
• 5:22
  So
• 5:22
  they
• 5:23
  are
• 5:23
  really
• 5:23
  trying
• 5:24
  to
• 5:24
  battle
• 5:24
  that
• 5:24
  out.
• 5:25
  And
• 5:26
  it's
• 5:26
  gonna
• 5:26
  be
• 5:26
  interesting
• 5:26
  to
• 5:27
  see
• 5:27
  how
• 5:27
  this
• 5:27
  plays
• 5:27
  out,
• 5:28
  the
• 5:28
  lessons
• 5:29
  of
• 5:29
  this
• 5:29
  fall's
• 5:29
  election.
• 5:30
  Guess
• 5:30
  what
• 5:30
  happens.
• 5:31
  They're
• 5:31
  not
• 5:31
  paying
• 5:31
  attention
• 5:31
  to
• 5:32
  that.
• 5:32
  They
• 5:32
  are
• 5:32
  slow
• 5:33
  to
• 5:33
  the
• 5:33
  thing
• 5:34
  in,
• 5:34
  in
• 5:34
  Washington.
• 5:35
  So
• 5:35
  King
• 5:35
  county
• 5:36
  is
• 5:36
  basically
• 5:36
  sticking
• 5:37
  the
• 5:37
  middle
• 5:37
  finger
• 5:37
  up
• 5:38
  at
• 5:38
  the
• 5:38
  rest
• 5:39
  of
• 5:39
  the
• 5:39
  voters
• 5:39
  of
• 5:40
  Washington
• 5:40
  saying
• 5:41
  we
• 5:41
  know
• 5:41
  better,
• 5:41
  you
• 5:42
  stupid
• 5:42
  idiots.
• 5:43
  And
• 5:43
  so
• 5:44
  we'll
• 5:44
  see
• 5:44
  what
• 5:44
  happens
• 5:44
  with
• 5:45
  this.
• 5:46
  It's
• 5:46
  interesting.
• 5:47
  Senate
• 5:47
  Majority
• 5:48
  Leader
• 5:48
  Jamie
• 5:49
  Pederson,
• 5:50
  Democrat
• 5:51
  Seattle,
• 5:51
  said
• 5:52
  the
• 5:52
  voters
• 5:52
  were
• 5:52
  in
• 5:53
  sync
• 5:53
  with
• 5:53
  recently
• 5:54
  enacted
• 5:54
  policies.
• 5:55
  A
• 5:55
  cap
• 5:55
  and
• 5:55
  trade
• 5:55
  market
• 5:56
  for
• 5:56
  polluters,
• 5:57
  payroll
• 5:57
  deduction
• 5:58
  for
• 5:58
  long
• 5:58
  term
• 5:58
  care
• 5:59
  and
• 5:59
  capital
• 5:59
  gains
• 6:00
  tax.
• 6:00
  But
• 6:01
  they
• 6:02
  think
• 6:02
  that
• 6:02
  they
• 6:02
  know
• 6:03
  better.
• 6:04
  So
• 6:04
  it's
• 6:04
  going
• 6:04
  to
• 6:04
  be
• 6:04
  interesting
• 6:05
  to
• 6:05
  see
• 6:05
  this.
• 6:07
  The
• 6:07
  voters
• 6:07
  were
• 6:08
  smart
• 6:08
  because
• 6:08
  they
• 6:08
  voted
• 6:09
  for
• 6:09
  the
• 6:09
  things
• 6:09
  that
• 6:09
  they
• 6:09
  wanted.
• 6:10
  But
• 6:10
  then
• 6:10
  they're
• 6:10
  dumb
• 6:11
  because
• 6:11
  guess
• 6:11
  what?
• 6:11
  They
• 6:12
  didn't.
• 6:13
  So
• 6:13
  be
• 6:13
  very
• 6:14
  careful.
• 6:14
  I've
• 6:14
  seen
• 6:15
  something
• 6:15
  here
• 6:15
  now
• 6:15
  work.
• 6:16
  And
• 6:16
  I
• 6:16
  think
• 6:16
  it's
• 6:16
  really
• 6:16
  important
• 6:17
  for
• 6:17
  people
• 6:17
  out
• 6:17
  there
• 6:18
  that
• 6:18
  are
• 6:18
  trying
• 6:18
  to
• 6:18
  protect
• 6:19
  their
• 6:19
  natural
• 6:20
  gas.
• 6:20
  And
• 6:21
  I
• 6:21
  think
• 6:21
  the
• 6:21
  important
• 6:21
  thing
• 6:22
  to
• 6:22
  hear,
• 6:22
  to
• 6:22
  see
• 6:22
  is
• 6:23
  that
• 6:23
  even
• 6:24
  if
• 6:24
  you
• 6:24
  voted
• 6:24
  in,
• 6:24
  make
• 6:25
  sure
• 6:25
  it's
• 6:25
  gonna
• 6:25
  withstand,
• 6:26
  do
• 6:26
  your
• 6:26
  due
• 6:27
  diligence
• 6:27
  to
• 6:27
  make
• 6:27
  sure
• 6:28
  that
• 6:28
  it's
• 6:28
  gonna
• 6:28
  withstand
• 6:29
  the
• 6:29
  courts
• 6:29
  because
• 6:30
  those
• 6:31
  people
• 6:31
  that
• 6:31
  you've
• 6:31
  elected
• 6:32
  in
• 6:33
  are
• 6:33
  gonna
• 6:33
  vote
• 6:33
  against
• 6:34
  what
• 6:34
  the
• 6:34
  will
• 6:34
  of
• 6:34
  the
• 6:34
  people
• 6:35
  want.
• 6:36
  So
• 6:37
  now
• 6:37
  we
• 6:37
  need
• 6:37
  to
• 6:37
  close
• 6:37
  this
• 6:38
  loop
• 6:38
  for
• 6:39
  all
• 6:39
  of
• 6:39
  the
• 6:39
  people
• 6:39
  out
• 6:40
  there.
• 6:41
  If
• 6:41
  they're
• 6:41
  voting
• 6:42
  against
• 6:42
  this
• 6:42
  and
• 6:42
  saying,
• 6:42
  hey,
• 6:43
  we're
• 6:43
  gonna
• 6:43
  file
• 6:44
  suit
• 6:44
  against
• 6:44
  your
• 6:45
  will,
• 6:46
  the
• 6:46
  people
• 6:46
  should
• 6:46
  start
• 6:47
  paying
• 6:47
  attention
• 6:47
  to
• 6:47
  who
• 6:47
  these
• 6:48
  people
• 6:48
  are,
• 6:49
  maybe
• 6:49
  think
• 6:49
  twice
• 6:50
  about
• 6:50
  electing
• 6:50
  them
• 6:51
  back
• 6:51
  in
• 6:51
  again.
• 6:52
  But
• 6:52
  the
• 6:53
  problem
• 6:53
  that
• 6:53
  we
• 6:53
  have
• 6:53
  is
• 6:54
  that
• 6:54
  on
• 6:54
  some
• 6:54
  of
• 6:54
  these
• 6:54
  west
• 6:55
  coast
• 6:55
  states
• 6:55
  is
• 6:56
  you
• 6:56
  have
• 6:56
  one
• 6:56
  population
• 6:57
  center,
• 6:57
  which
• 6:57
  is
• 6:57
  King
• 6:58
  county,
• 6:59
  and
• 6:59
  then
• 6:59
  you
• 7:00
  have
• 7:00
  the
• 7:00
  rest
• 7:00
  of
• 7:00
  the
• 7:00
  state
• 7:01
  that
• 7:01
  basically
• 7:02
  gets
• 7:02
  to
• 7:02
  abide
• 7:02
  by
• 7:03
  what
• 7:04
  they
• 7:04
  think
• 7:04
  over
• 7:04
  there.
• 7:05
  So
• 7:05
  it's
• 7:05
  a
• 7:05
  battle
• 7:05
  and
• 7:05
  it's
• 7:06
  an
• 7:06
  unfortunate
• 7:06
  situation
• 7:07
  because
• 7:08
  you
• 7:08
  have
• 7:09
  so
• 7:09
  many
• 7:09
  square
• 7:09
  miles
• 7:10
  voting
• 7:10
  for
• 7:10
  the
• 7:10
  entire
• 7:11
  state.
• 7:11
  And
• 7:12
  that
• 7:12
  does
• 7:12
  happen
• 7:12
  there
• 7:13
  in
• 7:13
  the
• 7:13
  state
• 7:14
  of
• 7:14
  Washington
• 7:14
  just
• 7:15
  like
• 7:15
  it
• 7:15
  does
• 7:16
  in
• 7:16
  Oregon.
• 7:17
  So
• 7:17
  this
• 7:18
  is
• 7:18
  something
• 7:18
  that
• 7:18
  happens
• 7:19
  over
• 7:19
  here,
• 7:19
  which
• 7:19
  is
• 7:19
  why
• 7:20
  you're
• 7:20
  seeing
• 7:21
  many
• 7:21
  parts
• 7:21
  of
• 7:21
  the
• 7:22
  states,
• 7:22
  Washington,
• 7:24
  Oregon,
• 7:24
  the
• 7:25
  eastern
• 7:25
  side
• 7:25
  of
• 7:26
  those
• 7:26
  states,
• 7:26
  are
• 7:26
  trying
• 7:26
  to
• 7:26
  join
• 7:27
  into
• 7:27
  Idaho
• 7:27
  and
• 7:27
  become
• 7:28
  a
• 7:28
  larger
• 7:28
  state
• 7:29
  because
• 7:29
  they
• 7:29
  don't
• 7:29
  want
• 7:30
  anything
• 7:30
  to
• 7:30
  do
• 7:31
  with
• 7:31
  the
• 7:31
  larger
• 7:31
  metropolitan
• 7:32
  areas.
• 7:33
  So
• 7:34
  don't
• 7:34
  want
• 7:34
  to
• 7:34
  get
• 7:34
  into
• 7:35
  politics
• 7:35
  today.
• 7:35
  But
• 7:36
  they
• 7:36
  are
• 7:36
  trying
• 7:36
  to
• 7:36
  protect
• 7:37
  their
• 7:37
  natural
• 7:37
  gas
• 7:38
  rates
• 7:38
  and
• 7:38
  I
• 7:38
  like
• 7:39
  them
• 7:39
  for
• 7:39
  it
• 7:39
  because
• 7:40
  there's
• 7:40
  room
• 7:41
  for
• 7:41
  both
• 7:41
  out
• 7:41
  there.
• 7:41
  I
• 7:42
  think
• 7:42
  competition
• 7:43
  between
• 7:43
  the
• 7:43
  electrical
• 7:44
  provider
• 7:44
  and
• 7:45
  a
• 7:45
  natural
• 7:45
  gas
• 7:45
  provider
• 7:46
  is
• 7:46
  what
• 7:47
  keeps
• 7:47
  everybody
• 7:48
  honest.
• 7:48
  And
• 7:48
  I
• 7:49
  think
• 7:49
  that
• 7:50
  also
• 7:50
  keeps
• 7:50
  it
• 7:51
  from
• 7:51
  being
• 7:51
  monopoly
• 7:52
  where
• 7:53
  those
• 7:53
  electricity
• 7:54
  rates
• 7:54
  or
• 7:54
  those
• 7:55
  natural
• 7:55
  gas
• 7:55
  rates
• 7:56
  can
• 7:56
  get
• 7:56
  very,
• 7:57
  very
• 7:58
  expensive.
• 7:59
  So
• 8:00
  keep
• 8:00
  an
• 8:00
  eye
• 8:00
  out
• 8:00
  Everybody
• 8:01
  on
• 8:01
  Initiative
• 8:01
  2066
• 8:03
  and
• 8:03
  see
• 8:04
  what
• 8:04
  happens
• 8:04
  here
• 8:04
  with
• 8:05
  I
• 8:06
  think
• 8:06
  it's
• 8:06
  just
• 8:06
  really
• 8:07
  disgusting
• 8:07
  that
• 8:08
  the
• 8:08
  city
• 8:09
  of
• 8:09
  Seattle,
• 8:10
  the
• 8:10
  mayor,
• 8:11
  the
• 8:12
  governor
• 8:13
  are
• 8:13
  going
• 8:13
  against
• 8:13
  the
• 8:14
  the
• 8:14
  will
• 8:14
  of
• 8:14
  the
• 8:14
  people.
• 8:15
  So
• 8:15
  we'll
• 8:16
  see
• 8:16
  what
• 8:16
  happens
• 8:16
  here
• 8:17
  with
• 8:17
  the
• 8:17
  new
• 8:17
  governor
• 8:18
  that
• 8:18
  comes
• 8:18
  in.
• 8:18
  If
• 8:18
  that
• 8:18
  changes.
• 8:19
  I
• 8:19
  don't
• 8:19
  think
• 8:19
  it
• 8:19
  will
• 8:20
  cause
• 8:20
  Bob
• 8:20
  Ferguson
• 8:20
  is
• 8:21
  just
• 8:21
  another
• 8:22
  Jay
• 8:22
  Inslee
• 8:23
  and
• 8:24
  I
• 8:24
  think
• 8:24
  that's
• 8:24
  going
• 8:25
  to
• 8:25
  be
• 8:25
  an
• 8:26
  interesting
• 8:26
  one.
• 8:26
  The
• 8:27
  good
• 8:27
  news
• 8:27
  is
• 8:27
  though,
• 8:28
  people
• 8:28
  like
• 8:28
  the
• 8:28
  Seattle
• 8:28
  Times
• 8:29
  editorial
• 8:29
  board
• 8:30
  and
• 8:30
  people
• 8:31
  like
• 8:31
  that
• 8:31
  are
• 8:31
  actually
• 8:32
  supporting
• 8:32
  the
• 8:32
  will
• 8:32
  of
• 8:32
  the
• 8:32
  people.
• 8:33
  That's
• 8:33
  a
• 8:33
  nice
• 8:34
  change
• 8:34
  up
• 8:34
  there.
• 8:35
  So
• 8:35
  I
• 8:36
  wish
• 8:36
  the
• 8:36
  people
• 8:36
  of
• 8:37
  Washington
• 8:37
  state
• 8:38
  luck
• 8:38
  up
• 8:38
  there
• 8:39
  and
• 8:39
  maybe
• 8:40
  natural
• 8:40
  gas
• 8:40
  isn't
• 8:41
  something
• 8:41
  that's
• 8:41
  going
• 8:41
  to
• 8:42
  go
• 8:42
  forever,
• 8:43
  but
• 8:43
  it
• 8:43
  should
• 8:43
  be
• 8:44
  there
• 8:44
  as
• 8:45
  they
• 8:45
  transition
• 8:45
  into
• 8:46
  cleaner
• 8:46
  energy,
• 8:47
  which
• 8:47
  is
• 8:48
  them
• 8:48
  building
• 8:48
  nuclear
• 8:49
  plants
• 8:49
  on
• 8:49
  the
• 8:49
  eastern
• 8:50
  side
• 8:50
  of
• 8:50
  the
• 8:50
  state.
• 8:51
  We'll
• 8:52
  see
• 8:52
  what
• 8:52
  happens
• 8:52
  with
• 8:52
  that.
• 8:53
  All
• 8:53
  right
• 8:53
  everybody,
• 8:53
  I'm
• 8:54
  going
• 8:54
  to
• 8:54
  keep
• 8:54
  this
• 8:54
  short.
• 8:55
  We

  a
• 8:55
  great
• 8:56
  show
• 8:56

  Make

  We've
