Senate Page, Ella Garcelon asks House Environment & Energy Committee Vice Chair, Victoria Hunt (D), and Ranking Member, Mary Dye (R), about the impacts of Green Energy Incentives.

The House Environment & Energy Committee considers issues relating to air quality; aquatic lands; oil spill prevention; solid waste; hazardous waste; toxics; climate change; energy; Puget Sound; the State Environmental Policy Act and the Shoreline Management Act; state parks; and outdoor recreation.

Overview:

During the 2025 session, Legislative Pages (students ages 14-16) had the opportunity to interview legislators from both the Majority party and the Minority party about issues of interest. In this lesson, students will learn about where the Majority Party, currently the Democrats, and the Minority Party, currently the Republicans, stand on three important policies regarding the environment and energy.

Essential Questions:

  • How do the beliefs of those in the majority party differ from those in the minority party? 
  • To what extent is there bipartisanship in the Washington State Legislature?
  • What is Washington State doing to protect our environment and access to energy?
