That's NOT All Folks...
There's certainly more wasteful spending in this Budget Bill than is listed here. I have been scanning through this Bill for a bit over 24 hours now. Frankly, I am exhausted and will have to come back to it in a few days. For now, I am going to focus on sharing my findings with my fellow Washington State Residents. Catch me on Tiktok for the most up-to-date findings and latest news.
