Senate Democrats are changing the rules of the Senate in the final two weeks, in order to rush through their tax hike agenda with the LARGEST TAX INCREASES IN STATE HISTORY. Senator Drew MacEwen: Rules exist for a reason and Democrats had plenty of time to come clean with Washingtonians about their tax increases without changing the rules to rush them through at the last moment. #UnaccountableWA #ReinstateAccountability #waleg | Washington State Senate Republican Caucus

Happening Now: The Budget Debate Senate Republican Budget Leader Chris Gildon explains on the Senate Floor why the State Legislature should adopt the Senate Republican Budget instead of the Senate Democrat Budget which has the LARGEST TAX INCREASES IN WA STATE HISTORY. The Senate Republican Budget has NO new taxes, NO tax increases, NO cuts, and NO cuts & furloughs for State Employees (but it does give them a $5,000 bonus). It's a responsible, honest budget. $aveWA #waleg | Washington State Sena

Senate Republican Leader John Braun warns about a terrible and costly new property tax scheme from Legislative Democrats. Their plan hikes the tax growth rate limit from 1% to inflation plus population, which is higher than their proposal for a 3% cap (HB 1334). It would result in BILLIONS in increased taxes for YOU and drive up rental prices as well, making living in Washington State even more expensive. We adamantly oppose this outrageous proposal that would hurt many WA families and individua

She criticizes the plan for overspending, lacking sound policy, and failing to support K–12 education.
