The bill has passed the House and will be deliberated next Tuesday, March 23, by the Senate Ways and Means Committee, which would have to approve the legislation before it could be sent to the full Senate for a vote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe more we make this emerging technology affordable, the less we have to worry about traffic, parking, greenhouse gas emissions, and steep car payments,\u201d says the bill\u2019s prime sponsor, Rep. Sharon Shewmake of Bellingham. Shewmake, elected in 2018, is an avid e-bike rider and a Washington Bikes champion in the state Legislature.<\/p>\n<p>Members and supporters of Washington Bikes are encouraged to <a href=\"https:\/\/app.leg.wa.gov\/pbc\/bill\/1330\">contact their state senator to voice support for the measure<\/a>. Individuals can also give their thumbs up to the Ways and Means Committee by <a href=\"https:\/\/app.leg.wa.gov\/CSIRemote\/Testimony\/Form?chamber=Senate&amp;meetingFamilyId=28894&amp;agendaItemFamilyId=142038&amp;remoteLocationId=50&amp;testify=False\">going to this link<\/a>, clicking \u201cpro\u201d on the Position menu, then filling in their name and information.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a win for our wallets, the environment, our health, and people who just want to get around town easily,\u201d Rep. Shewmake says.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why E-Bikes?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hugely popular in bike-friendly European nations, e-bikes are less common in the United States, where their sales are growing. E-bikes must be pedaled like regular bikes, but they provide a boost that amplifies a rider\u2019s power, making them a practical solution for replacing cars for commuting and running errands, especially in the hilly Pacific Northwest.<\/p>\n<p>If passed, the exemption would take effect Aug. 1, 2021 and expire in 2027, or when $500,000 in sales tax exemptions have been granted.<\/p>\n<p>Bike manufacturers and e-bike shops are speaking up in favor of the legislation. \u201cThese tax incentives will help lower the cost of acquiring an e-bike, making a purchase accessible to many more riders in the state,\u201d says Larry Pizzi, chief commercial officer for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.izipelectric.com\/\">Alta Cycling<\/a>, the Kent-based parent company of bike brands including Diamondback and IZIP. \u201cE-bike trips will replace car trips, easing congestion on our highways, benefiting the environment and improving riders\u2019 health.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brian Nordwall, owner of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electricbikeseattle.com\/\">Seattle E-Bike<\/a>, says he has potential customers for whom the sales tax exemption would make a big difference. \u201cThe social, health, and environmental benefits of this bill would far outweigh the loss of revenue to the state,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>Supporters point to the subsidies Washington provides to the buyers of electric cars as a precedent for passing this bill into law. Washington provides up to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.governor.wa.gov\/sites\/default\/files\/documents\/clean-transportation-policy-brief-bill-signing.pdf\">$2,500 in sales tax incentives<\/a> for purchasing electric cars. The state sales tax incentive is in addition to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cars.com\/articles\/which-electric-cars-are-still-eligible-for-the-7500-federal-tax-credit-429824\/\">federal tax credit of up to $7,500<\/a> for buying an electric car. \u201cWe already provide exemptions to electric vehicles in Washington state, and we should do the same for e-bikes,\u201d Shewmake says.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-22872\" src=\"https:\/\/wabikes.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rad-Mission-SLU-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Cars and the Climate Crisis<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Increased use of electric bikes could help solve the climate crisis, which is being driven in large part by gasoline-powered motor vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>Transportation is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.governor.wa.gov\/sites\/default\/files\/documents\/clean-transportation-policy-brief-bill-signing.pdf\">largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in Washington<\/a> state, accounting for nearly <a href=\"https:\/\/ecology.wa.gov\/Air-Climate\/Climate-change\/Greenhouse-gases\/2018-Data\">45 percent of the state\u2019s emissions<\/a> in 2018. Transportation is likewise the biggest source of carbon emission in the United States, accounting for 29 percent of the U.S. carbon footprint, with gasoline alone comprising<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/totalenergy\/data\/browser\/index.php?tbl=T11.01#\/?f=M&amp;start=200001\"> 22 percent of the U.S. carbon emissions.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>More than 45 percent of car trips in the United States are <span style=\"background-color: #ffff00;\">three miles or less<\/span>, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/nhts.ornl.gov\/vehicle-trips\">National Household Travel Survey<\/a>, while more than 20 percent are <span style=\"background-color: #ffff00;\">one mile or less<\/span>. A large percentage of these trips could be accomplished with an electric bike by people of all ages.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S1361920920306696\">A study<\/a> conducted in Portland, Ore., estimated the city\u2019s carbon emissions would drop by 12 percent if electric bikes were used to replace 15 percent of car trips. \u201cThese estimates show that e-bikes have the potential to help cities and regions achieve their climate goals,\u201d the study\u2019s authors wrote.<\/p>\n<p>A survey of e-bike owners by the <a href=\"https:\/\/ppms.trec.pdx.edu\/media\/project_files\/NITC_RR_1041_North_American_Survey_Electric_Bicycle_Owners.pdf\">National Institute for Transportation and Communities<\/a> shows that, once people have an electric bike, they use their cars less. Electric bike owners ride more often, and they feel safer riding the streets on an electric bike than a traditional bicycle. Respondents said that 76 percent of their e-bike trips would have otherwise been made by car.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt doesn\u2019t get treated as a serious commute mode, but it is,\u201d says Rep. Shewmake, a professor of environmental economics at Western State University in Bellingham. \u201cI lost 10 pounds and began riding it everywhere after I got an e-bike.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>E-Bike Subsidies Work<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Washington\u2019s e-bike bill is part of a growing national and international effort to boost the use of e-bikes as car replacing vehicles. The U.S. Congress is considering an e-bike bill.
