Gov. Jay Inslee will decide if he wants to run for president in the coming months
Washington state Governor Jay Inslee is taking the possibility of a presidential run a step further and will make a formal decision in the coming months.
Gov. Inslee tells The Hill that he will make a decision over whether to run for president before the end of the Washington state legislative session.
The federal political-action committee Vision PAC was registered by Inslee's campaign treasurer last month, The Seattle Times reports.
The committee has reported a single donation of $5,000, according to the Federal Election Commission's website. The donation came from Blaine Tamaki, a trial lawyer appointed to the University of Washington Board of Regents by Inslee last year who has contributed to the governor's campaign efforts in the past.
Inslee is still in the exploratory stages and would be allowed to raise money for travel and other expenses before making any formal announcement.

It also distances him from the other potential 'Dem' candidate from the state, millionaire Howard Schultz, former Starbucks CEO and No Labels member.
