We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.

I know I speak from many of your constituents when I say we want you to obstruct and fight back against this fascist takeover of our government. You do not owe them any politeness or decorum.

Slowly but surely…Choose 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. One book per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just covers.

The Capital Asset Tax (AKA "wealth tax") just dropped in #WALeg! House Bill 1319 would make the wealthy few pay what they owe in taxes.

It's a 1% tax on stocks etc, worth more than $100 million: https://app.leg.wa.gov/BillSummary/?BillNumber=1319&Year=2025&Initiative=false
