Three cheers for money-saving state workers
Secretary of State Sam Reed, State Auditor Brian Sonntag, Attorney General Rob McKenna and other state officials helped honor more than 30 state employees at the Innovations in State Government Awards ceremony in the Capitol Rotunda Wednesday. Among the honorees were eight employees who helped the Office of the State Actuary earn the Agency of the Year award by achieving $220,000 in first-year savings alone.
