Every year these critical programs are pit against each other, fighting for too few dollars in the state budget.
They shouldn’t have to choose. And neither should we.
Whether you’re a nurse, teacher, construction worker, or childcare provider, we all do our part.
No matter our background, faith, or color, we all contribute to our communities.

We’re paying more for the services that benefit everyone, like schools, roads, mass transit, health care, senior services, and other programs. And we’re feeling the biggest impact when it comes to taxes.
But, we can make a different choice.
We came together in 2021 to take the first step to make our tax code more fair by creating a capital gains tax on extreme stock profits.

It’s time to make sure Washington’s mega-millionaires and billionaires contribute to our schools, housing, hospitals, and more.

We are a movement of educators, working families, and everyday Washingtonians advocating for progressive revenue solutions. We believe that the best way to support families and businesses during the COVID- 19 crisis is to keep money flowing to our communities, invest in people, and ask the wealthy few and profitable corporations to do their part. Together, we can build a Washington that works for all of us.
