Democrat lawmakers in Washington State want to jail residents for using gas-powered landscaping tools such as leaf blowers and edgers.

State Rep. Amy Walen (D-Kirkland) has pre-filed legislation which would radically alter the state's Clean Air Act, according to Jason Rantz of MyNorthwest, who reports that HB 1868 would ban "gasoline-powered and diesel-powered landscaping and other outdoor power equipment" for "contributing to climate change."

As Rantz further explains, the bill contains a laundry list of unintended health consequences tied to the tools as well, including a claim that they cause asthma.
