Dear Friends and Neighbors, People all over Washington love spending time outdoors during the summer months, and those living in the 20th Legislative District are no different. We launch our boats, grab our fishing poles, and pitch tents at campgrounds around the state. Unfortunately, our options for where to enjoy the outdoors are shrinking this […] The post NEWSLETTER: Campground closures, the I-5 bridge over the Columbia and more appeared first on John Braun. -
Daycare fraud concerns should be a priority Dear Friends and Neighbors, Since news came to light months ago about the rampant daycare fraud in Minnesota, I have been concerned about the possibility of similar fraud here in Washington. As the legislative session got underway, I shared these concerns publicly. Democrat leaders in Olympia dismissed […] The post NEWSLETTER: Exposed — Democrat motivations on the income tax and fraud at DCYF appeared first on John Braun. -

Dear Friends and Neighbors, Community means teamwork, and in a county that experiences floods from time to time, we unfortunately know just how true that is. At the Packwood Improvement Club meeting last week, it was a time to pause and recognize the many people and organizations who stepped forward when rising waters disrupted lives […] The post NEWSLETTER: Democrats turn sheriffs into political pawns appeared first on John Braun. -
Dear Friends and Neighbors, Earlier today, Gov. Bob Ferguson announced that he supports the changes the House of Representatives has proposed to the income tax and will sign the bill if the House passes it. Senate Bill 6346 proposes an unconstitutional income tax — the kind of income tax Washingtonians have rejected repeatedly. It levies […] The post NEWSLETTER: No surprise – governor backs down from demand for $1.6 billion in tax relief appeared first on John Braun. -
Watch my weekly legislative update. Dear Friends and Neighbors, The Senate Democrats released their operating budget proposal this week. It’s not good for our state. If you remember, last year, Democrats responded to a $7 billion deficit in the state budget by approving a $12.3 billion package of state and local tax increases. This year, […] The post NEWSLETTER: Budget proposals are out — what it means for you appeared first on John Braun. -
OLYMPIA…More than $70 million for projects in the 20th Legislative District is included in the Senate versions of the proposals for the 2025-27 supplemental capital and transportation budgets, which were released this week. Both budgets were cowritten by bipartisan teams and would pay for local priorities such as flood response, public-school modernization, and improvements to […] The post Senate capital, transportation budget proposals include $70 million for Lewis County area appeared first on John Braun. -
Watch my weekly legislative update video. Dear Friends and Neighbors, You might be tired of hearing about the income bill, and I am tired of talking about it. But this bill is so bad that we can’t stop talking about it until we stop the bill itself. WATCH MY WEEKLY UPDATE Senate Democrats passed […] The post NEWSLETTER: Income tax to be heard in the House Feb. 24 — sign in CON again appeared first on John Braun. -
Dear Friends and Neighbors, Once in a while, a legislator will refer to a bill that everyone supports as a “good little bill.” Today, however, Senate Democrats passed a big, bad bill — an unconstitutional state income tax. Misleadingly labeled a “millionaire’s tax,” Senate Bill 6346 levies a 9.9% tax on income. To start with, […] The post NEWSLETTER: Democrats pass 9.9% income tax, but wouldn’t restrict it to millionaires appeared first on John Braun. -
OLYMPIA…Seemingly oblivious to concerns about affordability, Democrats passed a multitude of bills out of the Senate Ways & Means Committee Monday that will increase the cost of living for Washingtonians. Out of 69 bills on the meeting agenda, all but one of those that undermine affordability passed out of committee and await being brought to […] The post Senate Democrats pass pile of bills undermining affordability out of committee appeared first on John Braun.
