Opponents of Initiative 2117 hit the airwaves Thursday with a commercial that warns passage of the measure to erase a signature climate policy in Washington would increase air and water pollution, hurt the economy and endanger the state transportation system.

Such negative impacts would ripple across the state foes assert in the 30-second spot that features a firefighter, a small business owner, two doctors, a tribal member, and a farmer.

The ad will run on broadcast and cable television stations, and stream on digital channels, for two weeks in the Seattle media market. It is the first in what is expected to be a sustained on-air campaign until ballot counting begins Nov. 5.

“From now until Election Day, we will do everything we can to make sure Washingtonians across our state understand the costs of I-2117 to their community: More pollution and more traffic,” said Wellesley Daniels, campaign manager for the No on 2117 political committee, which made a six-figure buy for the commercial.
