Cost of vehicle tabs is $30 in name only

Have you heard the one about the $30 license fee?

Well check out dol.wa.gov and find out how your new governor has gotten past that.

Now you pay the following:

License tab $30.

Filing fee $3.

License service fee $.75.

And get this – a fee for vehicle weight!

On a mid-size sedan it is $10.

My $30 license fee that I voted in is now $43.75.

Watch the filing fee, the service fee and weight fee as they go through the roof. Can you say $400 renewal fees?

Keep electing liberals – they know better than anybody how to extract your money from your pocket.
