"We all have a stake in the future of our state, and it’s time for the wealthiest among us to contribute equitably toward that. Let’s pass the Millionaires Tax." Check out Dr. Soleil Boyd's op-ed in @seattleschild #waleg #balanceourtaxcode #millionairestax

“which is why it’s all the more baffling to me that he was not supportive of proven new progressive revenue sources that would have put Washington in a stronger position to invest in its own economy and its own people.”

Excellent recap of the #waleg state budget struggles thanks to @governorferguson.bsky.social by @amysundberg.bsky.social with good quotes from @organizewithshaun.bsky.social and @eoionline.bsky.social

THIS. 👆👆

If he does not sign or if he exercises his line item veto, odds are good there will be more cuts.

We need to keep educating folks about @governorferguson.bsky.social's betrayal of our #progressive values this budget season. #blamebob #taxthemoney #balanceourtaxcode

Another opportunity to potentially (but probably not) talk to Bob about #balanceourtaxcode #wealthtax #taxthemoney #taxtherich

Two of our "favorites" in one place.

If a "Cornerstone Office Supporter" actually got to talk to Bob about balancing our tax code, this might be worth it.

Poll: Bob Ferguson's appeal shifts amid economic concerns Washingtonians show stagnant views on the future as economic fears grow, revealing shifting sentiments toward Bob Ferguson and party dynamics.

Article discussing Bob's approval shifting from #wadems to republicans. (Gee, I wonder why.)

That's a wrap: The 2025 regular session of the Washington State Legislature has adjourned Sine Die - NPI's Cascadia Advocate Legislators concluded a grueling one hundred and five day "long" session in Olympia on Sunday, April 27th, with gavels falling almost simultaneously in the House and Senate, as is tradition.

Where does Washington state go from here with regards to tax reform after sin die? We CONTINUE to tell @governorferguson.bsky.social EVERY DAY that he needs to adjust his thinking on revenue abd budget cuts. #balanceourtaxcode #taxthemoney #taxtherich

This is so true. The nickle-and-dime nature of the revenue increases are EXHAUSTING.

also #taxthemoney is a slightly nicer way to say #taxtherich 😉

Washington state needs to #balanceourtaxcode

<sarc> good job, bob. </sarc>

This is a regressive tax on multiple types of services - not just tech - and it was introduced because bob signaled he would not #taxtherich

We got a republican governor in democratic clothing.
