Remembering George Masten, a Giant in WFSE (and WA) History

When George started his career in state service, workers were routinely laid off en masse and replaced by loyalists, friends and family members of newly elected governors in the so-called "spoils system" of political patronage. By the time Masten retired as Executive Director in 1984, our members had just taken the entire State of Washington to court alleging systemic gender-based wage discrimination and won the largest settlement in state history, equivalent to $1.5b today.
