Also, even Democrat Randy Dorn admits that Inslee’s first priority was and is his extreme “green” agenda, not education. And, if you think that … Continued

With November right around the corner, Democrat lawmakers are [understandably] getting antsy over kicking-off their 2016 campaigns and defending all the sketchy votes they took this session. In other news, House Democrats exhibited unbelievable hypocrisy when they expressed outrage over the GOP’s decision to publicize their latest supplemental budget offer. Meanwhile, the Seattle City Council’s … Continued

Jay Inslee’s trend of failed, ineffective leadership has led to more special sessions than previous governors. Also, if recent emails are an indication, Democrat Rep. Suzan DelBene is having difficulty raising money for her campaign. And, state House Democrats are scrambling to explain why they voted “no” on the bill to save public charter schools. … Continued

The state Supreme Court plagiarized its majority opinion when it ruled to strike down charter schools as unconstitutional last year.

In other news, liberals are pushing a … Continued

Team – Last week, state lawmakers failed to agree on a supplemental budget. So, the 2016 legislative session will go into overtime.

The I-405 tolling debacle highlights their failed leadership. In other news, ten Democrats broke off from their party and big labor to help pass a bill to save charter schools … Continued

By delivering an empty ultimatum to lawmakers, Jay Inslee reinforces his image as a weak, ineffective leader. Luckily for Inslee, extreme “green” California billionaire Tom Steyer is sure to come to his aid this November.

With just days (hopefully) to go before the end of the 2016 legislative session, the lawmakers have not touched Initiative 732, the so-called “revenue neutral” carbon tax. Also, unlike the President of the United States, Jay Inslee does not have pocket veto power. But, that’s exactly what he threatened lawmakers with yesterday. If Inslee follows … Continued

The 2016 legislative session is scheduled to adjourn this week, but state House Democrats have yet to act on voter-approved public charter schools. In other news, Seattle liberals have (once again) proved that they prefer delusional visionaries who fall for scams over people with any degree of competency. Also, a Democrat state senator decided to … Continued

Team – Washington’s House Democrats proved (again) that, when given the opportunity, they will always pick special interests over what is best for working families. Last week, Democrats serving on the House Education Committee demonstrated how beholden they are to the Washington Education Association (WEA) when they blocked a bill that would save voter-approved charter schools in our state.
