After 5 months I finally got our (WA State) ferry display reinstalled in our yard. Completely refurbished with a new motor, track system, and lighting. People can activate it just by pressing the button while they walk by. Just in case you're looking for a little joy or there.

Have historic preservation and grant writing experience? Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve on Whidbey Island, Washington is looking for a new Reserve Manager.

EBLA is a unique unit within the National Park system governed by partnerships between NPS, WA State Parks, Island County, and the town of Coupeville. I had the pleasure of working there for a few years, it's a beautiful place full of history.

Remember that scientific paper @datasaurus co-authored about Lake Washington water quality improvements over the past couple of decades?

King County released a press release with a really great video that includes Daniel talking about what the findings mean for the #Seattle metro area. This is your chance to see and hear him in action -- he's an amazing science communicator!

Two great developments on safer and healthier buildings in Washington and Oregon. A fossil fuel industry-backed ballot initiative that narrowly passed in Washington (I-2066) – that would have severely hindered local and state efforts to accelerate buildings moving to high-efficiency electric appliances – was found unconstitutional. An appeal is likely, but this is a great development.

Sharing good news as a tonic: The State of Washington rejected an initiative that would have repealed the carbon auction cap-and-trade system. It has produced revenues for greatly increased investments in transit, active transportation, home energy improvements, and other climate-friendly work (including programs I oversee so yes I'm relieved).

Who needs a voters guide when the initiatives are literally just “repeal taxes on $250,000+ capital gains, and take the money from K-12 education?”

Thanks to maga millionaire Brian Heywood for making the Washington State initiatives super easy to just vote 'NO’ down the line this year.

Usually try not to order Starbucks when I'm traveling but it's what's available in the lobby of this conference hotel in Baltimore during a short break. Two observations on differences between here and Seattle: a 12 oz iced mocha only cost me $4 even, and they sell hard liquor and cocktails in cans and bottles.

This #Elections #worker in #WaState had a surreal day last year after suspicious white powder showed up in an envelope at several sites nationwide
Now we have #police presence all day long. As if that would stop white powdery envelopes from showing up 😒🙄

#WholeWashington (the volunteer organization that is working to bring #UniversalHealthcare to #WashingtonState) is currently studying when to attempt their next signature-gathering campaign for a ballot initiative. In the mean time, you can help them out by signing this "Pledge to Sign" petition so they are ready to go when it's time to gather official signatures: https://wholewashington.org/pledge-to-sign/
