As Ferguson runs for governor, he touts labor bonafides in Everett
EVERETT — Speaking in front of a crowd of labor unions Tuesday in Everett, gubernatorial hopeful Bob Ferguson said the current economic system is “rigged” against workers.
“Americans recognize a rigged system when they see it,” Ferguson said.
The state’s attorney general made the remarks in a keynote address at the annual Labor Champions Awards dinner hosted by the Snohomish and Island Counties Labor Council.
Ferguson is one of three Democratic candidates running for governor in 2024 after Gov. Jay Inslee announced he won’t seek a fourth term. Inslee endorsed Ferguson last month. Other Democrats in the race are State Commissioner of Public Lands Hilary Franz and state Sen. Mark Mullet, of Issaquah.
