On an issue this important, the voters should get the final say. This issue has become hopelessly politicized in Olympia. Politicians aren't thinking about what voters want.

People wonder: 'What's the catch? It must be nefarious and evil. I just tell them, don't let it creep you out too much that you like I-900. It's ala carte you can support me this year and I can go back and be the devil next year.
