THEY LIED: Leaked Emails Expose Washington’s Millionaire Tax Plan


​What really happened behind the scenes of the "Millionaire’s Tax" (SB 6346)? While Olympia claimed to be closing loopholes, new documents obtained via public records requests tell a different story—one of back-channel coordination between the Attorney General’s office and legislative sponsors.

​In this episode of Left Coast News, we break down the 1,000-page document dump that critics say reveals a strategic roadmap designed to circumvent a century of constitutional precedent and ignore the will of Washington voters. We’re moving past the press releases to examine the paper trail.

​In this episode, we cover:

​The breakdown of the coordination between the AG’s office and the legislature.

​How SB 6346 was "engineered" to attempt to bypass the 1933 Culliton v. Chase ruling.

​What this means for the future of fiscal accountability and the separation of powers in Washington.
