Was your name falsely added to testify AGAINST the Millionaires Tax? More than 100 confirmed names (and more) were fraudulently entered in opposition to fixing our 100-year old tax code. There's still time to let your State House members know you SUPPORT!

Group claims WA ‘millionaires tax’ opposition was inflated in hearings
Advocates allege fraud in WA's public comment system, saying duplicate and fake sign-ins inflated opposition to a proposal to tax income over $1 million.

3/5 Earlier in 2025 I was sworn in to the WA House. With my colleagues, I secured funds for recovery from the bomb cyclone, removed the cap on special ed funding and secured meaningful wins for our communities. I passed 3 bipartisan laws, proving even in divided times collaboration gets results.

2/5 This year was marked by loss; after Senator Bill Ramos’ unexpected passing, being appointed to the Senate was an honor and huge responsibility. We ran a challenging grassroots campaign to keep the seat and with support of family and friends, an incredible team, and community trust, we won.

This Saturday, Nov. 1, at 3 PM, we’re hitting the doors in Issaquah for Sen. Victoria Hunt, one of WA’s tightest races. Families are feeling the pinch because Republicans are cutting food assistance, but we can make a difference. Every conversation matters for our communities!

While housing and childcare costs stretch family budgets, Trump‘s policies are raising prices and threatening jobs. As your State Senator, I will continue focusing on local solutions, increasing resources for public safety and education, and protecting our communities and economy. Vote by Nov 4!

2/3 This isn’t a joke to families in our community struggling to afford groceries while Trump moves to slash SNAP benefits. It’s not a joke to the Issaquah mother who was arrested by immigration officials this week while dropping her child off at preschool. These are real people facing real harm.

Victoria Hunt @victoriahunt.com · 26/10/2025
1/3 It’s shocking that after everything we’ve seen (after January 6, after four years of division, chaos, and attacks on our democracy), Chad Magendanz still voted for Donald Trump. And now to dismiss Trump’s words as him just ‘joking around’ is beyond comprehension.

Can the GOP undo an Eastside Trump-era defeat?
A state Senate race may test whether Republicans will again be dragged down by Trump's unpopularity or whether Democrats see backlash for raising taxes.

Violence has no place in our politics. My thoughts and deepest sympathies are with those impacted by violence. We can and must resolve our differences through debate and democracy, not through threats or attacks.
