Climate warming:
The most important issue of our lifetime-
The potential death of our planet
.
.
Governor Jay Inslee:
"We are the first generation to feel the sting of climate change, and we are the last generation that can do something about it. The science is clear – we have a short period of time to act. Whether we shrink from this challenge, or rise to it, is the biggest question we face.
I’ve dedicated my public life to fighting climate change. That's why I'm running for president to take on the defining issue of our time.
Will you join us?"

Jay Robert Inslee (/ˈɪnzliː/; born February 9, 1951) is an American politician, author, and lawyer serving as the 23rd and current governor of Washington since 2013. A member of the Democratic Party, he served in the United States House of Representatives from 1993 to 1995 and again from 1999 until 2012.
As governor, Inslee has emphasized climate change, education and drug policy reform. He garnered national attention for his critiques of President Donald Trump. Inslee, State Attorney General Bob Ferguson and State Solicitor General Noah Purcell sued the Trump Administration over Executive Order 13769, which halted travel for 90 days from seven Muslim-majority countries and imposed a total ban on Syrian refugees entering the United States. The case, Washington v. Trump, led to the order being blocked by the courts and it was later superseded by other executive orders.
