	Mark Mullet on Health Care

Supports opting out of state long-term care program

The Northwest Progressive Institute is blasting state Sen. Mark Mullet over his decision to officially endorse Initiative 2124, which would make participation in the WA Cares program voluntary. The voter's pamphlet argument for I-2124 that Mullet helped craft, reads in part, "Washington workers should have the choice over whether their hard-earned money is taking to fund the program. Voting 'yes' makes the payroll tax voluntary and gives workers the choice to remain in or leave the program." Source: The Center Square on 2024 Washington Gubernatorial race , Sep 4, 2024
