Not content to lie about resigning if I-695 passes, Rep. Ruth Fisher lies about Eyman #3!

greenspun.com : LUSENET : I-695 Thirty Dollar License Tab Initiative : One Thread

From the Seattle Times, Dec 21: http://seattletimes.com/news/local/html98/init_19991221.html

Mumbling from the still-upset-at-the-will-of-the-people-outcome, Rep. Ruth Fisher, most famous for lying to the people about what her personal response to the passage of I-695 would be, mumbled this:

Fisher says Eyman's initiative is altogether off base because the state already spends about 96 percent of available transportation dollars on road construction - 6 percentage points more than Eyman is seeking.

Now... what's wrong with THIS picture?

Have you emailed Rep. Fisher (fisher-ru@leg.wa.gov) to resign today?

(here's a little hint: How much of the transportation budget is related to the construction, operation and maintenance of the ferry system? No peeking!)

"Fisher says Eyman's initiative is altogether off base because the state already spends about 96 percent of available transportation dollars on road construction - 6 percentage points more than Eyman is seeking. " If true, she should have no objection to the initiative, since it won't seriously change anything then.

I thought she was going to resign........?
