MacEwen

Sen. Drew MacEwen, R-Shelton, is calling for an immediate special legislative session to address fuel prices and utility rate hikes, framing it as an energy affordability crisis caused by made-in-Olympia policies.

“This is an energy affordability crisis, plain and simple. Families are paying the price for policies coming out of Olympia, and they need relief now. A special session would give us the opportunity to take immediate action to address fuel costs and utility rate hikes before the situation gets worse.”
