The governor spoke with Crosscut's Paris Jackson about mental health, climate change and the Huskies ... prior to their national championship game.

In November, voters will cast their ballots for someone to succeed Jay Inslee, the governor of Washington for more than a decade. 

Until then, Inslee has some key issues he wants to address. 

The governor sat down with Crosscut’s Paris Jackson in early January to discuss some of his priorities for 2024. 

In this episode, you’ll hear the full conversation between Jackson and Inslee, who went in depth on a range of issues including climate change, housing and the University of Washington’s football team.

Read the full Q&A with Inslee here and watch a video version of the conversation on Crosscut.com or KCTS9.org on January 11th.
