This video discusses two proposed Washington State bills, Senate Bill 5819 and House Bill 1386, highlighting perceived hypocrisy in the legislative process. SB 5819 aims to tax temporary staffing for paid protesters, while HB 1386 proposes an 11% tax on firearms, ammunition, and parts. The speaker argues that while SB 5819 is unlikely to pass due to claims of taxing protected speech, HB 1386 is expected to pass, demonstrating a double standard in how legislation affecting constitutional rights is treated.

This video from Washington Gun Law TV discusses Washington House Bill 2238, sponsored by Representative Liz Barry, which proposes an 11% tax on ammunition sales and use. Host William Kirk argues this tax is an attempt to disarm law-abiding citizens and fund further gun control measures, rather than genuinely addressing gun violence. The bill's legislative findings and tax structure are analyzed, with a warning that similar taxes have been upheld in other jurisdictions.
