The Governor just announced that he's planning an "all cuts budget," but frankly, Washingtonians can't afford more cuts.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

2025 was the worst year of layoffs since the pandemic. AI automation played a huge role in this, allowing large corporations to automate and layoff thousands of people. 207,572 are without income AND there are more unemployed people than jobs. We need a basic income!
