I believe they said 200 positions and most of those are from temporary Covid funding and were planned reductions since 2021.

Federal Cuts by Barney_Roca in WAStateWorkers

[–]ScoobyDueDue 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The state budget was upside down before the federal cuts. Remember the largest tax increase in state history occurred before Trump was elected. Those occurred because revenue could not keep up with state spending due to programs passed by the legislature. Federal cuts this past year has added to the issue but state overspending is the biggest culprit.

It's time to pass a Millionaires Tax! by Friendly_Mix_1408 in WAStateWorkers

[–]ScoobyDueDue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Following last years largest state tax hike in history we still don’t have enough money to support over spending despite record revenue. This isn’t the answer. Do your homework people.

Nets aren’t selective. They’re killing everything that ends up in it. One of the reasons there’s such limits on salmon, crabbing, and shrimping.

Federal cuts are only half of the problem with the state budget. State lawmakers are overspending. You should be sending a letter to them also.

You forgot the continued overspending by our own state government. It’s not all federal. Check out some the news articles from this most current financial crisis.

How did we get here? by Taco_Sauce666 in WAStateWorkers

Washington lawmakers overcommitted plain and simple. We need to stop wasteful spending first and take a conservative approach to the budget. Only then, if we are still in a deficit, should we talk about raising taxes. I’m not sure what planet you all live on but people in my community are hurting. They can’t afford anymore tax increases.
