In the space of 6 years Washington Democrats have systematically dismantled the comparative advantages that drew so many businesses and entrepreneurs to our state. The long term economic harm will be massive.
- Higher prices
- Fewer jobs
- Less growth and opportunity
WA State made a Promise
17 years ago my business partners and I decided CA was not good for our employees or our business. We looked around for alternative solutions.
WA state came up on our radar with a promise directly on the State Department of Commerce Website.
“We offer businesses some competitive advantages found in few other states. These include no taxes on capital gains or personal or corporate income. We also offer industry-specific tax breakss to spur innovation and growth whenever possible.”
So we moved 40 families up to WA and established roots.
WA state’s economic success can absolutely be attributed to this business friendly approach that brought talent , technology, innovation, entrepreneurs, and jobs from all over the globe. I was thinking about this the other day wondering if I could find a screen shot of that promise the legislature has now trampled on. The interwebs are forever.
Vote Yes on I-645 To repeal the income tax and help Olympia keep the promise it made to thousands of businesses that chose Washington as their home.
