Rep. Leonard Christian urges House to protect taxpayers from high energy prices

Amendment 1138 would eliminate the authority for the director of the Department of Ecology to enter into a linkage agreement and instead provides a process for the Department of Ecology to recommend to the Legislature that Washington enter into a linkage agreement and to publish a report containing certain details of the recommended linkage agreement, including the text of the proposed linkage agreement and projected revenue impacts from the linkage agreement.

The amendment failed 40-56.
