Here’s a Word doc, with full text below. Many thanks for legal help to Bill Appel and to David Petteys, a member of the Washington State Bar Association Taxation Section. (The standard disclaimer applies: David’s participation does not necessarily represent the views of, nor any endorsement by, the WSBA Taxation Section. WSBA rules generally preclude the Section from taking a position with respect to the substance or merits of tax policy legislation.) more
