Moms Rising – July 8, 2026

Breaking Bad News: The anti-family, anti-worker, anti-economy initiative (backed by Brian Heywood) just announced they have enough signatures to get on the November ballot. This initiative, if passed, would give the ultra wealthy a tax break and leave Washington families footing the bill for the things we need to thrive: health care, public education, and more. Not good.

SIGN NOW and pledge to support and defend the Millionaires Tax to protect and uplift hard working Washington families.

Brian Heywood, a mediocre millionaire himself, is trying his best to bend the rules in his favor and is asking Washington families to pay the price. He appears to have forgotten that quite literally thousands of people like you spoke up and linked arms with thousands of other families, workers, small businesses, and neighbors across the state to tell our state legislators to protect working families and pass a Millionaire’s Tax that rebalances our upside-down tax code. And we were heard!

Join with thousands of families across our Evergreen State to stand firm and defend the Millionaires Tax. 

Washington lawmakers passed the Millionaire’s Tax this year and here’s what Brian Heywood and his billionaire buddies are trying to steal from Washington families:

REPEALING Nearly $3.5 billion in new revenue every year—generated from less than 1% of households
REPEALING Real, sustainable funding for child care, early learning, K–12 education, and health care, with $150 million a year dedicated to early learning 
REPEALING Universal free school meals for Washington students 
REPEALING Expanding the income eligibility for the Working Families Tax Credit and removing age restrictions that hurt young adults and seniors 
REPEALING The removal of sales taxes on diapers and over-the-counter medicines
REPEALING A pathway to reinvest in programs that have faced millions of dollars in cuts and delays

Tell Brian Heywood that we don’t stand for this – commit to protecting the Millionaires Tax today!

Let’s be clear, the consequences of this initiative would be steep: it will cut funding for important services like health care and k-12 education, AND raise taxes on working families and small businesses. Washington families will protect the future of our state and defend the Millionaires Tax at the ballot. 

Together we are a powerful force for children and families in Washington,
