Hello from our state capitol!
It’s an honor to once again represent the 3rd Legislative District – the heart of Spokane – in our state legislature. The last couple of weeks have been busy with post-election organization events in Olympia.
Caucus leadership elections and committee planning for the 2019 legislative session have now taken place. When the session begins on January 14, I will once again be serving as Majority Whip in the House of Representatives. I’m proud to be represent Spokane at the leadership table in our state House, and to serve in a role that helps ensure our legislative process runs smoothly and efficiently.
