Washington st has THEE #1 most regressive tax system in the country because they have no income tax.

His business is running Initiative campaigns, backed by a few rich curmudgeons (and big oil, for his last campaign).

He got caught a few years ago taking a 'salary' from the money he raised, after denying it, so he turned it into a full-time business.

Most of his Initiatives have failed a court test (a few still stand). He's sometimes called an 'anti-tax populist' in the local birdcage liner media, but he's essentially a scammer who figured out how to make a living by annoying and obstructing the state/county/city governments.

The court’s ruling is in response to a lawsuit filed by the League of Education Voters and other groups against Initiative 1053, an initiative sponsored by Tim Eyman in 2010 that reinstated the two-thirds requirement.

Voters first authorized the two-thirds requirement in 1993. They reimposed it in 1998, 2007, 2010 and reaffirmedin 2012, at least in part because of lawmakers’ penchant for suspending the requirement to raise more revenue.

Under state law, it takes a two-thirds vote of the Legislature to amend an initiative in the first two years after voters approved it — a near impossibility given the current makeup of the Legislature. After two years, lawmakers can change voter-approved initiatives with a simple-majority vote. They have done so repeatedly.

Eyman has sponsored new initiatives requiring a two-thirds vote in an effort to stay ahead of the Legislature.

King County Superior Court Judge Bruce Heller ruled the two-thirds requirement unconstitutional in May. The case was appealed and the Supreme Court heard arguments in September.

Who knew???

This is one of those "make it harder to raise taxes? Sounds like a good idea!" things that end up being a terrible idea the minute a minority of state senators decide they are shitheals who oppose the government doing anything of value.

How much money is that asshat Eyman going to cost this state with his initiatives anyway.
He needs to go back to school to learn about constitutions.
