Funded by over $130K and backed by the Washington State Labor Council, he’s one of the better-resourced challengers aiming to unseat the incumbent. Powell criticizes economic inequality, immigration policies under Trump, and criminal justice disorder—but also draws fire from progressives for his views on transgender athletes and immigration detention centers. He credits the Working Class Heroes Fund, a PAC under scrutiny for “dark money” concerns, for helping his campaign, though he insists it didn’t sway his policy positions.
