Episode description

The unflappable Pete Serrano joins the latest podcast. We hear a bit about Pete's background and what inspired him to go to law school, his background as an environmental lawyer, and what eventually led to his decision to run for office. Pete helps us break down the mission of the Attorney General's office and how it impacts the everyday lives of Washingtonians. We also discuss the AG office's staffing, structure, and budget, as well as how they all illuminate the priorities of the incumbent in an environment where public safety should be paramount. Pete discusses the impact of the shortage of police officers and public defenders. Pete tells us about his attempt to appeal to the moveable middle in a world of hyper-partisanship. What separates Pete from his opponent (and Bob Ferguson's legacy)? How does Pete see himself working with the legislature? Does Pete think we'd be better off if the AG was appointed by the governor? Learn the answers to all of these questions and more.
