State of Washington

Attorney General Bob Ferguson announced he has selected Assistant Attorney General Morgan Damerow as the Attorney General's Office Open Government Ombuds. For the previous two years, a team of assistant attorneys general performed the ombuds' duties. That team included Morgan Damerow and one of the deputy attorneys general who serves on the office's Core Leadership Team. In 2013, Ferguson restored the Open Government Ombuds to a full-time position. Ferguson's first ombuds, Nancy Krier, retired in June 2020, after seven years of service. Damerow will assist citizens, public agencies and elected officials with Open Public Meetings Act and Public Records Act compliance. The work of the ombuds includes: answering questions about the Open Public Meetings Act; providing Open Public Meetings Act training to newly elected officials; answering inquiries from individuals on how agencies should comply with the Public Records Act; and providing guidance to state and local agencies on their approach to public records requests.
