John Wilson was the chief of staff to former King County Executive Ron Sims and a former King 5 TV journalist who is running for King County Assessor. Wilson worked under his opponent, incumbent assessor Lloyd Hara, for four years before the two split ways. Wilson is widely credited with revamping technology in the department. He has made housing affordability a central focus of his campaign, proposing changes in tax assessment practices to support affordability. He also pledges to ensure all taxpayers pay their fair share and continue to revamp technology to make the office more accessible and save the county money. Wilson would take a more activist approach to the office – engaging the office in tax policy debates, and is endorsed by a number of our labor partners.

Initiative 1366
Initiative-1366 from Tim Eyman orders the legislature to send a constitutional amendment to the voters next year requiring a two-thirds supermajority vote to close tax loopholes or raise revenue. If legislators refuse, Eyman’s initiative would create an $8 billion hole in our state budget over the next six years by cutting the sales tax by a full 1 percent.
