Holy is a former Spokane police detective. He’s a lawyer and a politician who says he’s more interested in solving problems than in upholding ideology. After six years, he says he’s served his apprenticeship and finally learned some of the ropes in the legislature.
Opposing him is Jessa Lewis, the eastern Washington director of Health Care for All, a movement to increase access to health care.
