Washington Speeds Up Public Records | Seattle News

Washington’s Attorney General is pushing for faster public records access, targeting the 2,000+ state agencies bogged down by delays that have ballooned from 15 to 24 days since 2019—and ballooning costs exceeding $128 million. New guidelines aim to triage requests, prioritizing simple, single-document asks for a five-day turnaround, while tackling the backlog of complex requests. The push, driven by journalists and transparency advocates since 2024, also mandates moving personal-device-stored records to official systems within five days. Critics worry about legal risks, the five-day window’s leniency, and local government strain—but with a new chief transparency counsel on board, final rules are targeted for summer.

High Earners Tax Repeal Heads to Ballot | Seattle News

Over 500,000 signatures have been submitted to repeal Washington’s new high-income tax, nearly doubling the threshold and guaranteeing a November ballot showdown. The tax, set to begin in 2029, targets earners over $1 million, with proceeds funding schools and services — but opponents, led by hedge fund manager Brian Heywood, argue it’s unfair and will force cuts to essential programs. Supporters warn repeal would slash education, housing, and healthcare funding, while critics say the tax is flexible and not tied to specific programs. With legal deadlines looming and certification underway, the state braces for a high-stakes election battle over who controls Washington’s future tax policy.
