This campaign is all about getting you stuck in your fears and remain disconnected from the part of you who believes that everyone deserves to be paid equitably for their labor.
Prop 1 is only harmful to those who believe your labor is not worth their investment.
Olympia, please take the time to learn more about Prop 1 before casting your vote in the upcoming election.
This measure may have good intentions for helping people get ahead as things get increasingly more unaffordable, but it will do more harm than helping.
It piles on more rules, more costs, and more red tape on our local businesses and nonprofits. The very groups that create jobs, feed families, and keep our community strong will be the ones hurt most.
The measure requires the City to enforce new regulations and our current budget will be significantly impacted by the costs to enforce these new requirements.
Businesses and non-profits are barely recovered from the pandemic. Some are still trying to survive. We now have high inflation and tariffs that drive up costs to our businesses and weakens our nonprofits. Our City Council will also consider raising the business and occupation tax retail rate to help close the gap on this year’s budget. Now, Prop 1 threatens to pile on more regulations under these economic conditions.
Those costs will be passed on to you!
We can’t afford a measure that makes it harder to run a business, harder to serve the community, and escalates our affordability crisis.
NO to hurtful regulations.
NO to higher costs for Olympians.
NO to fewer opportunities for business and nonprofit workers.
Olympia deserves solutions that do not hurt our residents and our local economy.
🗳️ Vote NO on Prop 1 to protect Olympia from this harmful measure.
