Capitol Report with Rep. Abell: Fighting tax hikes and defining personhood


Rep. Hunter Abell, R-Inchelium, discusses his role on the House Finance Committee and the fight against 20 proposed tax increases, which he and fellow Republicans opposed. He highlights efforts to require local voter approval for tax hikes, arguing that Washington has a spending problem, not a revenue problem. Abell also discusses House Bill 2029, a response to recent attempts to grant legal personhood to inanimate objects like rivers and rocks.
