Initiative 1098 and Income Taxes

Sightline sets the record straight on a Washington ballot measure (I-1098) that would levy an income tax on the very wealthy to fund schools and health care, as well as reduce taxes for property owners and small businesses. Sightline does the math, using visuals to make tax policy comprehensible and engaging.
