Protecting Washington From Oregon's Fate

Measure 37's "surprising passage in Oregon highlights the need to refocus on how growth management protects property owners here in Washington." "Protected rural and resource land is at risk for development," and the measure creates "special privileges may be unconstitutional, a claim that Oregon courts will review in coming months.""With new threats to Washington's famed quality of life, we must protect the state's Growth Management Act from such challenges as Measure 37... Through continuous adaptation and improvement, Washington can continue as a model for the rest of the country in promoting livability and managing growth, instead of following our neighbors to the south on a dangerous road that will harm economic competitiveness and the environment."
