In a gift to his big-money labor union donors just before Christmas, Jay Inslee sent a letter to the US Trade Representative last week trying to slow down negotiations on pending free trade deals.
Evidently, Inslee forgot that Washington is the most trade-dependent state in the country.
Or, maybe, our green governor just remembered that big labor put millions into his last campaign and he that has to keep his eye on the fundraising ball, regardless of how it hurts Washingtonians.
