On Tuesday, Greg Wims was sworn in as the newest member of the Maryland House of Delegates representing District 39.
Wims is filling the latest vacancy in the House of Delegates after former Del. Kirill Reznik resigned after nearly 16 years to become an assistant secretary at the Maryland Department of Human Services. District 39 includes a majority of Germantown, Montgomery Village, and parts of unincorporated Gaithersburg.
