“Bob has had an incredibly positive impact on our state as Attorney General these last 12 years. He is steady, strategic, and passionate about helping Washingtonians. He’s fought to protect civil liberties, reproductive health freedoms, marriage equality and was a leader when Washington state stood up against an unconstitutional travel ban six years ago. I am proud to endorse his campaign for governor."

"Bob Ferguson stands up for the people – and he does not back down. He takes on powerful special interests and wins — including defending our state and our values against the Trump Administration time after time. Because of Bob’s leadership, the most vulnerable among us are safer and more prosperous. Our state will be well served with Bob Ferguson as its next Governor.  That's why I’m proud to give his campaign my full support."

“Bob’s commitment to advocating for Washingtonians is unmatched. He’s fought for — and delivered — protections for immigrants, children, women, and workers. He’s also an incredible advocate for consumer protection and antitrust enforcement. And he does it all with humility. For Bob, the work is not about scoring political points. It’s about delivering justice and doing what’s right. That’s why I’m supporting Bob Ferguson for Governor of Washington state.”

"I am happy and honored to endorse Attorney General Ferguson to be our next Governor because we need a leader with the vision, tenacity and integrity to fight for a brighter future for all and the skills necessary to achieve those lofty goals. He shares the values of Tribal leaders and the proven commitment to protecting Tribal sovereignty and reforming Tribal consultation, urgently fighting climate change, and holding polluters accountable."

"I am proud to support Bob Ferguson as he runs to be the next Governor of Washington state. Bob puts Washingtonians first; by protecting access to medications that save lives, banning the sale of assault style weapons to keep our communities safe and holding opioid distributors accountable. Bob understands the needs of our state and works hard to deliver results."
