There's never been a better time for a Millionaires Tax!

February 4, 2026
This week, a meaningful opportunity for Washington State to fix its inequitable tax code and stabilize our state’s overall health was introduced in the legislature. This Millionaires Tax (HB 2725/SB 6346) will be a major structural shift in the direction of fairness and tax justice. It asks millionaires to pay a little more while we bolster sufficient funding for essential programs and become less reliant on regressive taxes like the sales and property tax.

On Native Hawaiian & Pacific Islander Women’s Equal Pay Day: Demand Congress and the Trump administration end the attack.

August 28, 2025
Pop Quiz: How many additional months in a year do Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) women have to work to earn what white, non-Hispanic men make in one year? If you said 8 months, you’re sadly correct. It’s unfair, yet true: NHPI women make just 65 cents on the dollar compared to white...
