Stronger Families. Stronger Communities. Stronger Washington

I recently discussed #WaCares on Seattle Channel.

A “Yes” vote for I-2124 allows workers and working families to opt out of the regressive payroll tax that provides very limited, if any, benefit for long-term care needs. Voting “Yes” gives workers the choice to decide their long-term care options based on their family situation.

Almost 500,000 Washington workers opted-out, but option is no longer available without the Initiative. Over 400,000 Washingtonians have signed I-2124 so they too can opt-out. Vote Yes!
