An east Alabama lawmaker is moving out of her district and will resign at the end of this month, Alabama Daily News reported.

Rep. Debbie Wood, R-Valley, told Alabama Daily News that her husband got a job in the Florida panhandle and that they are moving to a new home in Alabama near the Florida line.

Wood, who is a real estate broker, has represented District 38, which includes portions of Chambers and Lee counties, since 2018.

Gov. Kay Ivey will announce a date for a special election to fill the seat.

“Rep. Wood has been a great member during her time in the House, and we will certainly miss her leadership,” House Speaker Nathaniel Ledbetter told ADN.

“I wish her and her family nothing but the best as they move on to what’s next.”
