PARENTS RIGHTS INITIATIVE BATTLE CONTINUES — here’s my report on Friday’s court hearing.

Sun, July 13, 2025

So on Friday was the scheduled court hearing on one of Brian Heywood’s Parents Rights Initiative.

I showed up early (as always):

I went inside and was ready and rarin’ to go as I saw my case on the screen:

But a funny thing happened on my way to the courtroom … 

Here’s what’s going on and why this was actually a good thing.

Initiatives are really really tough.

Drafting one, collecting enough voter signatures to qualify for a public vote, overcoming the opposition and having voters pass it, and then getting it through the courts … that’s a Herculean task. 

It’s important to get the language “just right.”

Brian Heywood filing various versions of his “Restore the Parents Rights Initiative.”

He’s right to do so.

Because as I’ve certainly learned after doing this for nearly 30 years, your first version is rarely the best version. 

That’s why Friday’s cancellation was actually a good thing — it shows he’s finetuning his initiative and it’s getting better with each successive version.

He wants to get it “just right.”

I’ll continue to keep you updated as this moves forward.

ABUSE OF POWER — Bob Ferguson has spent more taxpayer money going after me and my family than all other cases in the last 13 years COMBINED! 

I really need your help to fight back. Please donate to the Tim Eyman Legal Defense Fund so Richard Sanders can get this ridiculously unconstitutional ruling overturned.
