OKANOGAN COUNTY – Democrats in the State Legislature and Executive branch have added another new payroll tax for all workers in Washington state, starting on January 1st, 2022. They have also raised the rate, by 50%, of another payroll tax that was imposed last year. In coming years, it is expected that there will be further steep tax increases for these taxes that come out of every worker’s paychecks, because the entitlement programs that they fund are not actuarially realistic with their projections.
