The 2012 Priorities are:

  • Toxic-Free Kids: Protecting Children’s Health from cancer-causing flame retardants and help put businesses on the path to using chemicals that won’t harm health, the environment, or their bottom line.
  • Fulfill our Clean Energy Initiative: Sustain the success of I-937 in bringing investments, jobs and economic development throughout Washington.
  • Pollution-Free Prosperity: Prevent attempts to weaken, delay or rollback state environmental laws and programs that are critical for clean air, clean water and healthy communities.

All together, the 2012 Environmental Priorities work to protect the things that are most important to Washington’s families – our kids’ health, rebuilding our economy, and maintaining our clean air and clean water.  Learn more about the Priorities here.

There's also a great blog post about the Environmental Priorities Lobby Day that our partner, People for Puget Sound, put up on their site.  Take a look at http://pugetsound.org/blog/lobby-day-2012.
