2/2 It’s part of a campaign on the AGO website and on social media that we’re calling “Pause. Check the Cause.”

The AGO encourages consumers to carefully review bills and online checkout pages for additional, undisclosed fees that increase the advertised purchase price, and to file a complaint at the link below if they see a fee that was not disclosed, or that they believe is deceptive. ⬇️

The AGO works to ensure that companies comply with the law and adequately disclose all fees and charges to Washington consumers. Companies caught charging hidden fees by the Attorney General have paid over $9.6 million dollars in consumer restitution and penalties.

In recent years, hidden fees have proliferated in multiple industries, from online shopping to event tickets, to restaurants, to lodging, to delivery services, among many others. Undisclosed fees may violate the Washington State Consumer Protection Act.

2/2: Thank you to Rep. Nicole Macri, Director of Commerce Joe Nguyen, Executive Director of Justice Housing Yakima Jennifer Schlenske for your leadership, and Latae Mitchell for bravely sharing your story.

3/3: Even after just 11 months here, it is hard to imagine the office without Colleen’s expertise, savvy, toughness, and caring.

But our loss is Washington state’s gain. There’s no place in Washington where Colleen could be more influential than on our highest court.

2/3: Colleen is simply a brilliant attorney. As the founding division director of the Wing Luke Civil Rights Division and an inspirational leader to many at the AGO, it’s difficult to do justice to Colleen’s legacy and impact on the office.

Today’s victory means that Washingtonians will continue to benefit from the work of these agencies. It also reaffirms that the President can’t reverse the will of the people and their elected representatives with the stroke of a pen. www.atg.wa.gov/news/news-re...

Behind every statistic is a loved one whose potential was unjustly stolen. Let this day be both a solemn time of mourning and a fierce call to action to challenge transphobia and fight for a world where every single person may live openly and safely in their truth.

2/2: ✅ You can ask them to leave. If an officer enters a private space and does not have a court order or warrant signed by a judge, you can ask them to step outside.
