Republicans Push to Pause Climate Tax | Seattle News

Washington State Republicans are pushing for a special legislative session to pause the Climate Commitment Act, blaming it for soaring gas prices and claiming it fails to deliver road improvements. Nine senators have formally requested the session, arguing the CCA imposes “hidden fuel taxes” on drivers.
