Elected and unelected officials in the Pacific Northwest have attempted to take away our access to natural gas while passing laws to discourage its use. These actions raise energy costs for consumers, limit major appliance options, and even threaten family-wage jobs. Banning sources like natural gas will only harm families, businesses, and our economy.

State and local efforts in Washington and Oregon to restrict or ban natural gas hookups in new residential and commercial construction are limiting the ability of families and businesses to choose the energy sources that best meet their needs. These policies drive up costs for consumers and threaten energy reliability.
