Ferguson signals signing updated millionaire tax plan with family and small-business relief

Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson says he will sign the latest version of the proposed millionaire income tax, which would levy 9.9% on earnings over $1 million and redirect revenue to benefits like a expanded Working Families Tax Credit, free school meals for all students, OTC medicine sales-tax exemption, and childcare accounts, aiming to bolster families and small businesses; Democrats praise the changes while Republicans push back, and the bill still must pass both the House and Senate before signature.

Washington governor backs millionaires tax with family rebates, rejects under-$1M income tax

Gov. Bob Ferguson signaled support for a 9.9% tax on income over $1 million but would not back any income tax for individuals earning less than $1 million, insisting any bill must return significant revenue to Washington families and small businesses. He urged expanding the Working Families Tax Credit, broadening essential-item sales exemptions, and adding a biannual sales-tax holiday as the millionaire’s tax progresses from the Senate to the House; he did not commit to veto scenarios and highlighted the need for affordability measures as the session nears its March 12 deadline.
