PAY-PER-MILE TAX vote tomorrow in Olympia. Help us STOP IT. Join me/us Tues, Dec 16, 12:30pm, Olympia (WSDOT HQ Bldg, 310 Maple Park Ave SE, Nisqually Conference Room). The Washington State Transportation Commission votes @ 1pm but THEY HAVE TO LISTEN TO PUBLIC TESTIMONY BEFORE they vote. Wherever you live, get here. I welcome the chance to meet you and thank you for representing the voters who overwhelmingly passed I-976 to bring back our $30 tabs.
I-976 FALLOUT FUELS SPLIT IN STATE (Spokesman Review)
Put that headline in the “no duh” category.
Seattle government sues the voters because voters outside Seattle overwhelmingly backed $30 Tabs.
AG Bob Ferguson intentionally sabotages I-976.
A Jay-Inslee-appointed judge – whose boss is the plaintiff – sees no conflicts for AG Ferguson on defending I-976.
Lyin’ Jay refuses to ask Legislature to pass $30 tabs because he says voters were “confused” by Fergie’s ballot title for 976, calls voters stupid.
And for some reason, citizens are furious / livid / enraged.
Not a shocker.
And now they’re about to throw a barrel of gasoline on this raging bonfire: tomorrow the GOVERNMENT in Olympia is gonna vote on imposing a PAY-PER-MILE TAX. Join us and add your voice to ours as we give public testimony AGAINST this outrageous new tax. They’re gonna vote right after we testify.
Let’s get this straight: they take away democracy, they insult us, they disrespect us, they take away our $30 Tabs, and now they’re voting to impose a PAY PER MILE TAX in addition to one the highest gas taxes in the nation and sky-high tolls. It’s insane!
Show up early so we can sign up early to testify early. They won’t listen to us unless we show up!! Wherever you live, make it here.
To send emails to the Commissioners (all of them were appointed by Jay Inslee), send emails to: TransC@wstc.wa.gov; Tim@Tim4Gov.com.
