DescriptionThink biking to work is good for the environment? Think again, according to Washington state Rep. Ed Orcutt.

Orcutt wrote in a recent email that bicyclists should be taxed due to the greenhouse emissions they cause while riding.

The Republican who represents Kalama wrote in an email that he supports the inclusion of bicycles in the Washington House Transportation tax proposal, even though Orcutt said he’s “not much of a fan” of the proposal in general.
