Rep. Liz Pike talks with Lars Larson about the governor’s veto of her jobs bill

May 22, 2017

Rep. Liz Pike tells KXL’s Lars Larson she’s not giving up on seeking legislation to create jobs along the Chelatchie Railroad in Clark County, even though Gov. Jay Inslee vetoed her measure, House Bill 1504, which would have allowed limited development of freight rail dependent facilities along short-line railroads. Pike is working to re-introduce the bill in limited form, so that it would only take effect in Clark, Grant, Yakima and Spokane counties.
