Great news: As of March 11, 2026, the Washington State Legislature passed a #MillionairesTax imposing a 9.9% tax on personal income over $1 million. The measure is headed to Governor Bob Ferguson, who supports it. Millionaires that oppose it, can get the fuck out of WA state!

the Washington State Department of Revenue has performed a new analysis on the #millionairestax… The new estimate expects $3.1 billion in its first year (instead of $2.7 billion originally predicted) and $8.3 billion in the 2029-2031 biennium (instead of $6.9 billion).

In a big victory for WA + a once in a generation move for #taxjustice, we were thrilled to witness the #MillionairesTax pass out of the #WaLeg Senate. Every WA resident, no matter their background, deserves quality schools, accessible health care, & affordable childcare. #EconomicJustice

This is important b/c the huge, ongoing influx of tech wealth has made WA State absurdly unaffordable for most.
Seattle is now the 9th most expensive city in the U.S. and it also has the 3rd highest rate of homelessness:

🧵The #MillionairesTax vote continues in the House from last night! Big thanks to the lawmakers fighting for this bill!
We've got a few reminders about the tax:
1. It would be paid by around 20,000 households, less than 1% of the wealthiest people in WA. Over 99% of Washingtonians wouldn't pay it
