Residents and employers in Washington State face ever-increasing taxation, even with revenues already growing from an expanding economy and increased population. If you felt like government was spending wisely, maybe that would be acceptable. However, we continue to see a growing homeless population, increases in crime, more traffic congestion, and more misguided government regulation.
Politicians continue to raise taxes and fees, including the largest increase ever in Washington in 2025, $12 billion in new burdens on Washington residents and taxpayers.
And when the voters tell them enough is enough, they press court actions against the will of the people and work to enact even more tax legislation in Olympia.
