Highlights of the AGO’s work this past year include:
The Office of the Secretary of State (OSOS) and the Attorney General’s Office (AGO) have released a new guide for county election officials which outlines state and federal roles in election administration.

The Attorney General’s Office filed testimony on Tuesday with the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC), urging it to reject Pacific Power and Light Company (PacifiCorp)’s proposed sale of its Washington service area to Portland General Electric. The sale would increase costs and could deprive Washington customers of access to one of the state’s significant sources of clean energy, the Lewis River Hydroelectric Facility. Under Washington law, the UTC can only approve acquisitions of utility companies if they provide a net benefit to the public.
The federal administration is unlawfully attempting to block states from using federal Medicaid funds for gender-affirming care for low-income minors and some young adults, according to allegations in a new lawsuit filed by Washington, 20 other states, and the District of Columbia today.
