Guarantee Long-Term Care Funds For Seniors & Disabled Washingtonians
Approve 8201 This November To:
Guarantee Long-Term Care Funds Are There When We Need Them
8201 requires 100% of investment income earned by WA State’s Long-Term Care Trust Fund be spent on long-term care services for vulnerable seniors and disabled people. Washingtonians want to live with dignity as they age. 8201 supports this shared goal, strengthening the benefit’s Trust Fund to help seniors and disabled Washingtonians while protecting taxpayers.
Protect Washington Taxpayers, Ensure Tax Dollars Go Further
Approve 8201 to increase investment returns by $67 billion over the next 50 years, money that can be used to increase benefits for people with disabilities and seniors without costing taxpayers a penny. Higher earnings mean more money for care – good for seniors, disabled Washingtonians, their families, and taxpayers.
“Nurses support 8201 because when our patients are disabled, suffering from dementia, or just aging, they need a reliable, guaranteed fund for their long-term care needs.”
Approve 8201 has wide, bipartisan support across the political spectrum
The Washington State Nurses Association, League of Women Voters, AARP, the National MS Society, Washington Health Care Association and both Governor Ferguson and State Republican Leader John Braun support 8201. It is approved by a bipartisan supermajority of the legislature. See more supporters.
