A top aide to Governor Bob Ferguson, Mike Webb, resigned amid allegations of creating a hostile workplace for women in the office, according to a letter released by the governor's office.
Joyce Bruce, Ferguson's legislative liaison, also resigned after complaints about a toxic work environment, according to state lawmakers.
