I-601 required a 2/3 majority of the State Legislature in order to raise taxes. By a simple majority and the Signature of Gregoire the the 2/3 requirement was removed and then a simple majority raised taxes. If this lawsuit is successful then the Legislature will have to do it all again except we should have a new governor by then.

I get it. So Gregoire is a typical Democrat who does NOT want limits on spending.
