How a bill becomes law in Washington State apparently involves MC Hammer. The Senate Ways and Means committee Friday in Olympia voted to move forward a bill seeking to end the so-called “dance tax” in the state. CHS has reported on local clubs hit by the tax including the Century Ballroom which is holding a series of fundraisers to try to cover some $90,000 owed due to the tax which critics say is inconsistently applied and too often a surprise to venues. SB 5613 still has to wend its way through the rest of the legislature but another barrier is down. Check out the funky fresh moves of your elected officials in the clip showing the committee vote, below.
