Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson spoke at the Vashon Rotary Club’s weekly meeting  Thursday, April 6, 2017 as part of his goal to visit every rotary club in the state.

Ferguson has made headlines recently as his office was the first to file a suit against the federal government in January, seeking a temporary restraining order to stop President Donald Trump’s travel ban. The order was granted and an appeal from the federal government was denied. Ferguson has said the decision was a complete victory for the state of Washington.

He is now turning his attention to educating the state about the Attorney General’s Office, which handles a variety of issues from upholding the Consumer Protection Act and ensuring laws against anti-competitive business practices are enforced to investigating widespread identity theft and fraud.
