EVEN MORE COSTLY. Ferguson’s tax increases cost taxpayers $40.2 billion, NOT $37.8 billion! Our efforts are needed now more than ever.

Fighting for taxpayers for 28 years
As I wrote last Thursday, the state budget office reported that Ferguson’s biggest tax hikes totaled $37.8 billion.

That spreadsheet is accurate.
But it’s also incomplete.
How do I know that?
Because one of my supporters, after reading Thursday’s update, contacted me and pointed out some were missing.
So I re-contacted the state budget office and asked them for a complete list of all the tax bills that Ferguson signed into law.
This morning, they sent it to me.
In just one legislative session, Ferguson cost taxpayers $40.2 billion, not $37.8 billion.
That’s right: $40.2 billion

By way of comparison, Inslee took away $62.3 billion.


BUT IT TOOK HIM 12 YEARS TO DO IT!
Ferguson confiscated NEARLY 2/3 OF THAT AMOUNT in just 5 months!

Our fight for the people of the state of Washington is needed now more than ever.

Hi Tim, I discovered something, I divided Inslee’s budget (amount thanks for that info.!) by 12 and it was 5.19 Billion yearly. While you were right about our governor and his warp drive budget amount and it’s timimg, Inslee I believe made Governor Ferguson possible! By intent!
