Governor signs I-960 bill without vetoing advisory vote repeal

Governor Gregoire signed SB 6130 as adopted by the Legislature. There was some question as to whether the Governor would veto the 2-year repeal of the non-binding advisory votes. She said that she delayed the bill signing today to consider the requests to veto that section of the bill. As a result of today's action the Washington Policy Center will be publishing an I-960 voter's pamphlet.

I think it's terrible that I-960 was suspended without clear understanding why it was necessary. Please be better in communicating exactly why this was necessary. Show me how the government is trying to close the budget gap by cutting costs as well as raising taxes. Right now, it sounds like you're taking the easy out option by raising taxes rather then making the hard calls to cut spending. I'm an independent that often votes for democrats that make sense. This does not make sense to me. I need more information in a way that I can easily digest it.

None of you that are supposed to be representing us seems to realize that all the increases you keep putting on, taxes, gas prices, groceries, etc. does NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE FACT THAT THE SENIORS HAVE NO INCREASE, yet we still have to try to pay for all the extras.   Here is a suggestion tho probably not one you would even consider:   You all put a FREEZE ON YOUR SALARIES, USE THE SAME MEDICAL & RETIREMENT PACKAGE WE GET & see how long that would go on.  Also, quit taking your full salary after you get out  of office.  That would be a BIG HELP on saving money and cutting the deficit.  Think about it.

How many times have the Democrats, who control this state, told us, the voters that they don't care a whit about what we want, especially when they want to confiscate more of our money to pay for their mistakes?

Vote all of the bums OUT!
