This is for Tim Eyman’s cynical anti-capital gains tax initiative (trust me, I know) and while sure, Tim’s a crook, a con artist & a liar, if there’s one thing we know this horse’s ass knows how to do, it’s buy enough signatures to qualify for the ballot. I’m just gonna lob this bomb and then duck out of the room, but direct democracy in Washington is broken and we should kill it.

They say they need 400,000 signatures before Dec 30 of this year, which they think will cost about $2.7 million to round up, and they appear to be in the process of trying to get them. The initiative would ban all taxes related to “income,” which they say would invalidate Seattle’s JumpStart tax, the newly passed capital gains tax, etc.

Jim Walsh and a guy who I thought wasn’t supposed to be managing PACs for initiative campaigns have launched a campaign to put I-1408 on the November 2022 ballot. Tim Eyman is back at it: I’ll write more on this later, but right-wing Republican Rep. “Delta-related demand” spurred the company to limit purchases of “toilet paper, paper towels… Kirkland Signature water and high-demand cleaning products,” the Seattle Times reports.

Today the Economic and Revenue Forecast Council added over $900 million to the state’s expected collections. The thing that excites me the most about Dones?

The Seattle Times‘ Scott Greenstone wrote a good profile on Marc Dones: The new CEO of the new agency tasked with ending homelessness in the region plans to “fix the county’s laggy and incomplete data system so they know exactly who is homeless where, then impose a sensible set of requirements for homeless shelters and nonprofits housing people,” the Times reports.

Let’s take an orca break: KING 5 spotted some of the pretty killers in the water this afternoon. 4 or receive an exemption – or risk losing his job.” The state’s highest-paid employee still refuses to take the vaccine: The Spokesman-Review reports that Washington State University football coach Nick Rolovich still hasn’t sat for the jab yet: “He’ll have to either receive the single-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine by Oct. That said, if we lived in a world with stronger unions, workers wouldn’t need to take unsympathetic positions to get time off that they should already have. Another contract gives city employees who worked in-person a “one-time payment of $1,750,” and it also allows those who “choose to telework until January 19, 2022” much more time to get vaccinated.Īll of this seems to compensate well beyond the “impact” of forcing workers to take the day to get a goddamned shot that will save their goddamned lives. In any event, according to a press release from the Mayor’s office, “highlights” of the tentative agreement include a day off for workers who get the shot before the deadline, 10 days of “COVID-19 Supplementary Paid Leave,” and use of “applicable leave” time for those who start the process by Oct 18 but who won’t be fully vaccinated until afterward. Strange that our fearless protectors, the selfless public servants who think of nothing but ensuring the safety of every single Seattleite, still refuse to protect us from themselves. Paul Kiefer at Publicola said the cops are “pushing for an extended deadline and bonuses.” People joked about the vaccine mandate as a way to inadvertently defund the police, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it ends up funding the police quite nicely.
