Former WSU Spokane Chancellor Lisa Brown announces 2018 run for congress
SPOKANE, Wash. Just a week after leaving her job as chancellor at Washington State University Spokane, Lisa Brown announced she is running for Congress in 2018.
Brown was previously a member of the state Senate. After a brief break, she said she wants to represent eastern Washington in United States Congress.
The current congressional seat is held by Cathy McMorris Rodgers since she was elected in 2004.
According to the WSU Spokane Health Sciences website, Brown served in the Washington Legislature for 20 years. In 2005, she became the first Democratic woman in the state to hold the position of Senate majority leader.
I dont know about you, but when I look at Congress these days I see a lot of politicians whove lost sight of the people theyre supposed to serve, Brown said in her campaign video.
