Awhile back I pointed out that a group had not yet formed to opposed Tim Eyman's latest initiative. No on 960 is up, and so far they've raised close to $160,000. Go here to donate more.

The website is a bit thin for now, but this can get you started:

I-960 will make government less efficient
Routine fund transfers to address basic needs, such as road and bridge repairs, children's health care, or prescription drug assistance for seniors would require a two-thirds legislative vote and a public vote. This could cripple state government.

When a similar measure was enacted in Colorado, nonpartisan analysis revealed education funding dropped from 35th in the nation to 49th, child immunization rates fell to dead last among the 50 states, and prenatal care fell from 23rd to 48th. This must not happen in Washington State.    

I-960 will not cut taxes, but it will waste your money
More elections and longer ballots are expensive to administer and process. Sorting out the many legal issues created by I-960's confusing and poorly written language will tie up the courts, costing taxpayers time and money.
