Endorsed: No on I-1053
Tim Eyman is back. His latest initiative, I-1053, recycles the failed concept behind Initiative 960 - forcing a two-thirds vote of the legislature to pass any increase in revenue for our state, such as taxing polluters. If this initiative passes, next legislative session's expected $3 billion budget deficit will have to be closed with another brutal all-cuts budget. Critical protections that keep our air safe to breathe, our water healthy to drink, and toxic contaminations cleaned up would once again be at risk.
