Letter: Support Oneil for utilities

By Andrea Smiley, Vancouver

As someone who works in housing and energy policy, I know firsthand that affordability is the largest concern for Washington families today. Natural gas remains the most cost-effective way to decarbonize without putting undue financial pressure on low- and fixed-income families, schools, hospitals, and more.

James Oneil understands the need to balance environmental goals with affordability, which is why I support him for public utility district commissioner. With courage and conviction, James will ensure that we move forward in a way that benefits everyone.

Please join me in voting for James Oneil for public utility district commissioner.
