Voting analysis

One of Marilyn Strickland's bills would set up a task force on a preservative used in tyre rubber. The compound protects tyres from cracking; a substance it turns into when it washes off roads kills coho salmon before they spawn. Almost nobody knew that until recently, and a task force is the instrument for a problem that is understood but not yet regulated.
