OLYMPIA, Wash. – Washington state Senate Majority Leader Andy Billig has announced today that he will not seek re-election.

Billig, who was first elected to the Legislature in 2010, will finish his current term and continue to serve as majority leader until a new leader is selected in November. He was elected majority leader in late 2018 and has served in that role since the 2019 legislative session.

“Part of being a good leader is knowing when it is time to step aside and let others lead,” said Billig. “I have been incredibly lucky to have served Spokane in the Legislature and fortunate to have the strong support of my family and so many friends and neighbors throughout our community.”

Senate Democrats will elect a new majority leader for the 2025 legislative session following the 2024 general election in November.
