Again, It's about the Money
Over at The Stranger Slog, Goldy reports yet another interesting story about 1240; the Bezos family is funding four PACS. They are Children for WA PAC, Democrats for Ed Reform WA PAC and Education Voters Political Action Fund. The newest one is Revising the Status Quo.

(It's a long line of circulating money usually starting from a wealthy person/entity like the Gates Foundation.)
Further more, all of these IEs were done by the same direct mail house, Amplified Strategies, a firm that proudlyboasts its work on the No on I-1098 (High earners income tax) a campaign to which the billionaire Bezos family contributed $150,000.
So while it may look like Cann and Bowman are getting a lot of support from a broad array of good-sounding
