Yes, it's another first-year member of the House Democratic Caucus! Today's Capitol Ideas features a conversation with Rep. Edwin Obras of Seatac in Washington's 33rd legislative district, a diverse south King County district that includes SeaTac International Airport and a whole lot more.

Rep. Edwin Obras was appointed to a vacant seat in the state House of Representatives in December 2024, and for a lawmaker just getting his feet wet, he's made a splash. After a 30-year career in human services, he knows his way around the Capitol and already has bills poised to become law. You'll meet him today as we continue our conversations with the newest members of the House Democratic Caucus.
