@Ballotstrategy, @TeamTopos and many others have been working over the last yr on some bold research about how people understand #BallotMeasures & what we can do to remind them they support this critical tool. @Megbostrom takes the stage to share the outcomes of that research.

Research from BISC + @TeamTopos finds that using “playground messages” that are playful and connect the dots can be effective in getting people to #DefendDirectDemocracy, without triggering partisanship. #RoadAhead23

So gratifying to experience this march toward justice in our state. Congratulations to every Washingtonian, and thank you @budget_policy @InvestWANow @BalanceTaxCode @FuseWA @TeamTopos!
Replying to @GovBobFerguson
Washington’s capital gains tax helps right an upside-down tax structure where low-income Washingtonians ultimately expend a much larger share of their income in taxes than our wealthiest residents. (2/4)

NEW: Polling from @TCFdotorg and @TeamTopos shows integrated schools are popular, as 8 in 10 Americans say racially and economically diverse schools are important. Read more: tcf.org/content/commentary/s…
We have a simple choice to make: We can keep giving tax breaks to the super-wealthy and giant corporations — or we can invest in working families. I’m going to pick working families every time.

The economic consensus is clear: the best hope for our economy to recover is massive public investment that creates jobs, raises wages & keeps people out of poverty. That’s why #ProsperUS is pushing for the big public investment we need. #MoreInStore prosperus.org/

General support for increasing taxes on the wealthy is nearly universal among Democrats (96%), solid among Independents (71%), and is even significant among Republicans (47%) according to a @TeamTopos survey of WA voters.

Here's how economic recovery works: when people have more money, they spend more in their communities, businesses have more customers, and hire more workers. Take action by signing in "pro" to tax the wealthy and invest in people: bit.ly/WindfallTax

We have the resources for economic recovery. Tax the wealthy and plow that money into communities. @TeamTopos
