(The Center Square) – If you’re a Washington resident reluctant to buy or drive an electric vehicle due to the lack of charging infrastructure around the state or in cold weather conditions, you’re not alone.

Jay Inslee's efforts to electrify the public transportation sector. Most agencies are not on track to meet the state's 2025 objectives.
