Fighting Initiative 912
On the eve of the trial's first day last Sunday, we announced the relaunch of Washington Defense, a project website we've had for a couple years which we are transforming into a campaign against Initiative 912.
We encourage you to take a look and spread the word about it.
Speaking of I-912, John Carlson mentioned yesterday on air that their anti-roads initiative has run into a little roadblock - or, shall we say, pothole.
I-912 was filed a couple of weeks ago (see Washington Defense for more details) but a concerned group of state leaders and citizens have recently challenged the current initiative ballot title and summary (written by the Attorney General's office) in court as allowed by state law to obtain better language.
The group includes former Governor Dan Evans, former Seattle mayor Wes Uhlman, and Rep. Shirley Hankins.
While the challenge to the ballot title isn't likely to hurt or delay the Initiative 912 campaign very much, it's welcome to see that this KVI-sponsored effort is being closely watched and monitored.
