INITIATIVE 2020-10
REET abused by Land Bank
In 2011 continued funding for the Real Estate Excise Tax or REET (which is distributed to the Land Bank) passed by just 2.8%. The votes were 4,168 yes to 3,726 no. On San Juan Island it failed 1,565 no to 1,440 yes. Using that tax, the Land Bank has purchased over SIXTY million dollars worth of real property and millions more in easements. The Land Bank has had a 30 year run that’s removed over SIXTY million dollars of property off the tax roles. We think that’s enough

Vote @KimWyman12, along with Republicans up and down the ticket before August 4!

New York’s primary election occurred 40 DAYS ago.
We are STILL waiting for results.
It is totally unacceptable, and why we cannot afford a rushed transition to mass mail-in voting.
They are gaslighting you. Video below of Seattle “vandalism” in the form of… arson. https://twitter.com/projectlincoln/status/1290015710597378048
In the Trump Administration, vandalism needs a federal coordinated response, but a pandemic doesn’t.
Reasonable, moderate Washington State Democrat voters – vote Republican and help us enact common sense policies that benefit our communities and let’s put an end to this lawlessness.
