Benton County Democratic Central Committee

Friend,

First, a political action committee led by hedge fund manager Brian Heywood spent millions to put Initiative 2109 on the ballot.

Now, another well-funded committee – called the “Repeal the Capital Gains Income Tax Committee” – is preparing to spend big to pass it.

Most Washingtonians aren’t aware of what’s at stake with I-2109 – and the stakes are incredibly high.

Take it from the recent article from Axios: “If voters opt to nix the tax by approving Initiative 2109, the state will lose more than $2 billion in revenue for child care programs and education over five years.”

Two billion dollars in lost revenue – all so mega-millionaires like Brian Heywood can pay less in taxes.

So when we say we need you to chip in to make sure we can defeat I-2109, we really mean it. Please contribute $20 or another amount before our end-of-month deadline, midnight Monday, so we can spread the No on I-2109 message before voting begins.

Whether you chip in $5, $20, $100, or another amount, every dollar helps. Together, we will defeat this initiative and ensure Brian Heywood and other mega-millionaires and billionaires pay what they owe.

Onward,

No on I-2109
