After 40 years (born and raised) I left WA. Moment is leaving this month as well. I'm not even a millionaire affected by this tax. But when you add up all the costs to run a business in WA we can't afford it. You can build a remote team and re-open in Wyoming, removing all of
The Millionaires’ Tax passed by the House represents historic progress in rebalancing our unfair system. It sends significant dollars back to Washington families and small businesses. It expands the Working Families Tax Credit to 460,000 additional households – that’s money

Friends, Washington State SB 6229 (removes QSBS) is moving forward. No matter where you stand on raising income for the State, we cannot let this move forward as it will both decrease funding and damage an already struggling startup ecosystem. Our legislature is trying to kick us

I feel bad for Tyler Lockett... Join the Seahawks after back to back SB appearances. Give the team a FULL decade of your life. Leave the team and they go to the SB the very next year. Bummed for him. If we win, they should give him a ring just because.
