Housing advocate Betty Villegas will be the newest state lawmaker, picked on a 3-1 vote Tuesday by the Pima County Board of Supervisors to fill a legislative vacancy.

Villegas, a Democrat, replaces former Rep. Andrés Cano, D-Tucson. Her appointment brings the 60-member House of Representatives up to full capacity just in time for the scheduled resumption of legislative business July 31.

Villegas brings a focus on housing and homelessness to the Legislature, supervisors said in selecting her from a field of three nominees.

“I’m incredibly worried about my homeless patients who go … I don’t know where,” Supervisor Matt Heinz said of patients he treats as an emergency room physician.

Villegas is the housing and community development director for South Tucson.
