A veteran member of the Washington 14th District Legislative contingent wasn’t happy with the tone of Governor Jay Inslee’s State of the State speech. Republican Norm Johnson felt Inslee, a Democrat, offered no indication of seeking to work with legislators on both sides of the aisle, and felt that message should have been there with the 147 total members of the Senate and House split with 74 Democrats and 73 Republicans. Inslee touted proposals to eliminate a handful of tax exemptions and to raise some taxes as he looks for revenue to address what he calls “the nation’s most unfair tax system.”
