Friends, Washington State SB 6229 (removes QSBS) is moving forward. No matter where you stand on raising income for the State, we cannot let this move forward as it will both decrease funding and damage an already struggling startup ecosystem. Our legislature is trying to kick us while we're down (startup formation is already in an absolute free fall) and we need your help to make sure that they know that. Please email Senators and their legislative aides. Below are links to a sample letter and their contact information. Personal outreach matters. Tell your startup story: Why did you choose Washington? Why this company? How long have you been building it? What does it mean to you and your team? How would a 9.9% tax on QSBS impact your future here?
