Democrats Replace Trey Martinez Fischer As Caucus Leader

Democrats in the Texas House will swap in a new leader for the 89th Legislative Session, replacing San Antonio state House Rep. Trey Martinez Fischer (D-San Antonio).

Martinez Fischer took over as chair of the Texas House Democratic Caucus in 2023, but faced several challengers in his leadership race this year.

On Wednesday night, members of his party ultimately chose state House Rep. Gene Wu (D-Houston) to lead their political strategy through a tough upcoming session, according to the Quorum Report.
