Jay Inslee (dropped out)

Washington Gov. Jay Inslee on Wednesday became the latest Democrat to announce a 2020 presidential run, which he says will mainly focus on climate change.

Inslee has formed a political action committee and next plans to launch a presidential exploratory committee, the first formal step typically taken in any presidential bid.

Inslee has been Washington’s governor since 2013 and before that served as a U.S. Representative. He has long been an advocate of issues surrounding climate change, and has worked in politics for 30 years.
