Washington’s House Democrats today elected Rep. Deb Eddy (D-Kirkland) to serve as its new caucus vice-chair.

Eddy, of Kirkland’s 48th Legislative District, will provide support to Rep. Dawn Morrell (D-Puyallup) who was elected Chair last week.

“I thank my colleagues for the honor and privilege of serving the caucus in this role,” Eddy said. “I believe strongly in the power of collaboration and the power of groups. Rep. Morrell and I are going to make sure that our caucus achieves its goals and continues to make Washington a safe, healthy and prosperous state.”
