Rep. Jim McDermott has represented the 7th District since 1989 and is a champion of progressive values. McDermott is a member of the Progressive Caucus and serves on the House Ways and Means Committee. A physician by trade, he specializes in health care issues, particularly regarding the international fight against AIDS, his sponsorship of a bill to provide a single payer health care system, and women’s health. He has also been a vocal advocate fighting for working families who have been hurt by Wall Street, as well as fighting for alternative energy, and an official end to the war in Iraq.
McDermott faces two challengers, neither of whom are compelling: Independent West Seattle lawyer Doug McQuaid, who lost badly in Seattle's mayoral primary in 2013, and perennial candidate GoodSpaceGuy. McDermott deserves your vote.Last updated: 2023-04-05Jim McDermott

Former SeaTac City Councilwoman Mia Su-Ling Gregerson was appointed to her seat in the House last year. Gregerson has long been a transportation advocate, including during her time on the SeaTac City Council where she fought for light rail infrastructure, safe and complete streets, and transit-oriented development. Her main focus in the legislature has been education funding, transportation, and ensuring access to health care for all communities. If retained, she would be the first person of color ever elected to the 33rd legislative district despite its diverse constituency. Gregerson faces opposition from conservative Des Moines City Councilwoman and former judge Jeanette Burrage, who is best known for saying “women lawyers, you better wear skirts” in 2006. Burrage was also rated five years in a row as "Not Qualified" by the King County Bar Association. Another opponent, Independent Kent City Councilman Les Thomas, is not running an effective campaign. Gregerson deserves your vote.Last updated: 2023-04-05
