@hannahkrieg Unless this appears on the ballot as “state income tax”, voters are going to be so confused.
Once it’s on the ballot, it’s going to be worded so confusingly and presented as if families are going to lose benefits, that people will vote to keep it.
We’re fucked.
@kristenmag@GovBobFerguson Sorry, Kristen. You’re wrong. The funds aren’t actually enough to provide care. The real benefit is the money I got from SEIU 775 and how much they’ll receive in state care contracts.
The money of many line the pockets of the few!
@GovBobFerguson Let’s not confuse how this happened. SEIU 775 dumped truckloads of money into election campaigns, and eventually the pockets, of me and Jay Inslee.
To show our gratitude, the state contracts for care went to SEIU 775. That investment made them billions!
@stevedavidson@GovBobFerguson The funds were originally required to be used in state because it was Washington’s SEIU 775 that funded the governor candidates.
@GovBobFerguson This is the beginning of bribes bearing the fruit of payments from the state government.
SEIU funded my campaign with millions and now the healthcare workers are cashing checks paid for by Washington taxpayers.
@GovBobFerguson The last time Washington voters had a majority vote for a Republican president was Ronald Reagan in 1984. The last election with a majority of voters casting ballots in person and not by mail.
@RepJayapal “Socialism” and “social services” are vastly different.
Republicans are supportive of “social services”, for American citizens.
Nobody should want true Socialism. But politicians like Pramila don’t understand the difference.
@RepBonamici@AGDanRayfield@ORSecretaryRead I have an aunt who literally voted with her dead husband’s ballot. Saw it with my own eyes.
Stop the bullshit. The fraud is real.
@PattyMurray You are a thief, liar, and scammer. I guarantee that you didn’t read any of the data sources.
1st: The cuts start October 2027.
2nd: A reduction in participants does not mean 800,000 kids are going hungry.
3rd: The cut is 5-15% based on state’s payment accuracy. 🙅🏼♂️ fraud
@seattletimes When a person has a .45 handgun illegally modified to be fully automatic, then uses it to kill a 16-year old girl, don’t call them a “boy”. You sound sympathetic to a repeat offender who was on probation for assault.
Get your shit together and start telling the whole story.
@PramilaJayapal Do you know why asylum exists?
It exists to rescue people from tyrannical governments.
Do you know why they want to come to the USA?
Because we have a 2nd amendment that protects us from a tyrannical government.
Now connect the dots.
