They Raised Seattle's Taxes, your taxes. You Lost Your Local Businesses and Restaurants
Property taxes. Gas taxes. Climate fees. The people who still work and still own homes in Ballard, Magnolia, Queen Anne, Fremont, and Greenwood are paying more and living less.
There are more people in the 36th District who simply want lower property taxes and lower gas taxes than the politicians want to admit.
They are the ones who used to take their family out to eat once a month and no longer can without thinking twice. A neighborhood place isn’t a luxury. It’s where ordinary life feels like sitting at a friend’s table — and too many of those rooms are going dark while Seattle gets colder and more impersonal.
They are the ones who drive to Bellevue or Redmond for work and watch half a paycheck disappear into gas taxes and carbon fees every week.
They are the ones who still mow their own lawns, still pay their own bills, and still expect government to live within its means the way they do.
Seattle and Olympia have treated these costs as the price of “progress.” Working people experience them as a slow reduction in the quality of ordinary life.
This is not that complicated.
- When property taxes keep rising, families have less.
- When gas taxes and the Climate Commitment Act keep stacking on, a normal commute becomes an extra bill.
- When restaurants and small businesses feel the same squeeze, the neighborhood loses the places people used to go.
Enough.
In November we can choose lower property taxes, an end to the layered fuel and carbon levies that punish ordinary drivers, and a government that stops treating the people who still work here as an unlimited source of revenue.
That choice only happens if the people who feel the squeeze actually show up and vote — in the general election.
November 3.
Bring your neighbors.
Tell the people who raised the taxes that the bill has come due.

Lower taxes. Reliable energy. Government that lives within its means.

The August primary is final. Under Washington’s top-two system, both Noel Frame and Jillian England advance to the November ballot. Our primary total finished at 5,876 votes — real votes for a different direction on energy, taxes, public safety, and the cost of living.
