Is THIS The Breaking Point?

On episode 2 of the Fix Washington Podcast, host Rep. Peter Abbarno sits down with Rep. Suzanne Schmidt to hear her perspective on how Democrat tax hikes and overregulation are crushing employers, raising gas and housing costs, and pushing jobs across the border to Idaho. After Democrats passed $9.2 billion in crushing new taxes in 2025, Rep. Schmidt says her constituents are taxed enough already.
