March 28, 2025

Rep. Hunter Abell, R-Inchelium, warns of would coud become the largest tax increases in state history — $15 billion in the House and $20 billion in the Senate. He emphasizes the severe impact these hikes would have on 7th District residents, particularly with proposed increases in property and gas taxes. He also discusses House Bill 5098, which seeks to ban firearms in public places, and his proposed amendment to exempt frontier counties.
