Amway Corp., one of the country’s largest multi-level marketing (MLM) companies, and two of its affiliates will pay $225 million to resolve allegations by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the state of Washington that the companies use unfair and deceptive tactics to recruit members to Amway’s direct selling and MLM program.
Hundreds of Washington consumers will receive restitution through a $694 million multistate settlement with the subprime auto lender Credit Acceptance Corporation (CAC). The company will provide cash and debt relief to consumers nationwide to resolve allegations the company steered them into risky loans they would have difficulty repaying.
Attorney General Nick Brown co-led a coalition of 21 attorneys general in filing an amicus brief Wednesday in support of a lawsuit challenging the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)’s thinly veiled attempt to drive large numbers of employees to resign by forcing them to move across the country. USDA’s “reorganization” would not benefit the agency or the states. Instead, it would harm Washington and other states who partner with USDA on essential programs to prevent wildfires, protect food safety and security, and administer food assistance to our most vulnerable residents.

Attorney General Nick Brown released the following statement in response to today’s U.S. Supreme Court denying the federal government’s stay application, leaving a preliminary injunction in place. The injunction blocks the U.S. Postal Service (USPS)’s rule that would have disrupted the states’ vote-by-mail programs and put voters’ rights at risk ahead of the November 3 midterm elections:
“Today’s ruling is a huge win for orderly elections this November.
Attorney General Nick Brown today joined 21 other states and the District of Columbia in suing to halt the new public charge rule from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which would allow immigration officials to punish immigrants for lawful use of public benefits.

Registrar Agency LLC will pay more than $520,000 in a settlement to resolve allegations the company sent more than 190,000 solicitations to Washington businesses that deceptively appeared to be bills from a government agency.

The last year has seen progress to safeguard worker rights in Washington, but there’s more to do, according to the Attorney General’s Office’s 2026 Labor Day Report, released today.
Highlights of the AGO’s work this past year include:
The Office of the Secretary of State (OSOS) and the Attorney General’s Office (AGO) have released a new guide for county election officials which outlines state and federal roles in election administration. As the federal government continues to push falsehoods about the security of elections systems, the guide is intended to support county election officials with any potential interactions with federal officials in the lead up to the Nov. 3 General Election.
The Attorney General’s Office filed testimony on Tuesday with the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC), urging it to reject Pacific Power and Light Company (PacifiCorp)’s proposed sale of its Washington service area to Portland General Electric. The sale would increase costs and could deprive Washington customers of access to one of the state’s significant sources of clean energy, the Lewis River Hydroelectric Facility. Under Washington law, the UTC can only approve acquisitions of utility companies if they provide a net benefit to the public.
The federal administration is unlawfully attempting to block states from using federal Medicaid funds for gender-affirming care for low-income minors and some young adults, according to allegations in a new lawsuit filed by Washington, 20 other states, and the District of Columbia today.
