Could Washington Adopt JumpStart statewide?

Rep. Scott has proposed something similar to the JumpStart high-earners payroll tax we have here in Seattle, to raise $2.2B per year and shield us from ugly Trump cuts.

However, this one would be statewide and come with a rebate for Seattle companies already paying the local tax. There are a few differences, but the basic gist is similar.

Unfortunately, the Senate Majority leader seemed uninterested in the idea based on some comments he made on KUOW, because he thinks it would put Washington Jobs at risk..

I beg to differ. Here is a two minute video on why.

Please watch it to the end, share it with your friends, comment, and like it. (I know, irritating to ask, but these algorithms are still getting to know me). We need to get the word out.

On Tiktok (yes, I know -I’m like the least Tiktok-watching person ever)

Tax Washington corporations to protect us from Trump cuts.
