KIRO7 did a breakdown:

•Why is gasoline already so expensive in Washington? Our state has no income tax, so lawmakers heavily rely on the gas tax to fund road projects.

•Washington’s primary petroleum supplier is pricier, coming from Alaska and Canada instead of the South or Southeast because of geography - the mountain ranges block easy transport of crude oil to the west.

•Washington’s Climate Commitment Act, or cap and trade program, charges the state’s biggest carbon emitters for carbon credits past a certain level. Companies end up passing that cost along to you.
