And the beat goes on

Today, Governor Chris Gregoire signed into law a bill that guts I-601. I-601, which became RCW 43.135 specifically required a two-thirds majority vote of each house to raise state revenue above the level of economic and population growth. So much for the will of the people.

During her campaign, Gregoire wanted to start "Making State Government More Efficient, Effective, And Accountable to Taxpayers." Hey Mrs. Gob'na, so much for being accountable to the taxpayers.

I'm currently drafting a letter to Mrs. Gregoire, and my state senators and representatives informing them that my wife and I intend to take our incomes elsewhere as soon as possible. I'll post it when I get it done.
