Time for political transfusion

The Spokesman-Review

Washington state Senate Democrats are proposing to gut Initiative 960, which currently requires a two-thirds majority vote of the Legislature or a vote by the people – us – in order to raise our taxes. Our state Democrats, who are in the majority, are thwarting the will of the people just like the federal government.

When it is time to vote for state Senate and representatives, let’s vote in new blood.
