I urge you to take action against the reckless cap-and-trade program being pushed in Washington State. Instead, support Initiative 2117, which would prohibit cap-and-trade. As we face a lethargic and difficult economy, this cap-and-trade program could be the death blow to many small businesses in our state. Rather than cede control of our state to shady actors, please work to restore the liberty that was hard fought for by our Founding Fathers. Cap-and-trade promises to strip us of our rights as citizens. We need to take action against this to prevent losing our liberty. Please support Initiative 2117, repeal Washington State's cap-and-trade program, and vote against all anti-liberty acts.

I implore you to support Initiative 2117, which would overturn Washington State's implementation of cap-and-trade. Cap-and-trade scheme would be disastrous to our economy and individual freedom. Our state has its own laws and regulations, separate from other states and foreign governments, but cap-and-trade would remove that by forcing other entities' emissions standards on us, removing our state's ability to decide for ourselves. What will go next if we decide to enact this legislation? What rights will be ceded afterwards, and how many people will leave the state as a result? Please support Initiative 2117, and oppose cap-and-trade, which will not help any resident of our state, and instead hurt the small businesses that are the lifeblood of Washington State.

I strongly request that you oppose all cap-and-trade schemes, and support Initiative 2117, which would overturn such schemes. Small businesses have been attacked for years with taxes and burdensome regulations. It is becoming increasingly clear that cap-and-trade could be the knock-out blow to our state's economy. Cap-and-trade would only benefit the climate czars who can use these laws to hurt small businesses. If you know someone who runs a small business, or shop at one, you know this will cripple their ability to operate. These schemes are a slippery slope toward even more egregious violations of our personal liberty and national sovereignty. I urge you to follow the U.S. Constitution and the liberty-minded principles our country was founded upon. You must stand up for individual liberty and personal privacy. Please protect and defend economic freedom, vote in favor of Initiative 2117 and oppose cap-and-trade.

I urge you to oppose cap-and-trade in Washington State -- instead, support and vote in favor of Initiative 2117. Cap-and-trade is a dangerous proposal that erodes U.S. sovereignty and, by extension, our God-given rights. Cap-and-trade would cripple our economy and remove many economic freedoms, and this will only serve to hurt people in the state. Finally, cap and trade is unconstitutional -- why is the Legislature endorsing and legitimizing a program that shouldn't even exist in the first place? Please support Initiative 2117, and oppose cap-and-trade, along with any other bill or proposal that erodes the value of U.S. citizenship and promotes international control.

I am writing to urge you to support Initiative 2117, which would overturn Washington's cap-and-trade program being pushed into our state. I am very concerned about what cap-and-trade would do to our economy, seeing as California has seen a marked decline since enacting the legislation we’re voting on now. Cap-and-trade seems to aim itself squarely at small and growing businesses with the intent of ensuring they have another burdensome regulation. Cap-and-trade would only serve to push entrepreneurs and young people out of the state, and create problems for us as we lose massive economy fuelers. I urge you to support and enact Initiative 2117, and to oppose all attempts to hoist cap-and-trade upon our state.
