Washington is a great place to do business and raise a family. We cannot take our strength for granted. Today I signed an Executive Order launching the Governor's Economic Development Council, a historic convening of top leaders from around Washington state to help guide the next chapter of economic prosperity for our state. This is the first such body in two decades — since Governor Christine Gregoire’s Global Competitiveness Council in 2006.

52 years ago Pres. Nixon signed Title IX. Generations of women athletes, students & leaders have benefitted. Our nation is better for it. The arc of history bends toward justice, but it doesn’t bend on its own. I am grateful for all the women who fought to make Title IX possible.
