Let’s Go Washington challenges AG’s ballot warning on income-tax repeal, calls it ‘factually incorrect’

The Attorney General’s PIID is not just misleading; it’s factually incorrect,” Let’s Go Washington founder Brian Heywood said. “In fact, it increases funding by returning millions of taxpayer dollars that would’ve been spent setting up an income tax bureaucracy and defending an unconstitutional income tax against legal challenges.” The group contends that the Attorney General’s language assumes future tax collections, future legislative appropriations, and future spending decisions that have not yet occurred. The initiative would prohibit state and local governments from imposing a tax on individual income, the receipt of individual income, or any tax measured by a person’s income. Its language directs that the prohibition be interpreted broadly to block any form of individual income tax.
