Andrew Ryan Stokesbary (born 1985) is an American lawyer and politician. He serves in the Washington House of Representatives, where he is currently the ranking Republican member on the House Appropriations Committee. During his second term, he was elected Minority Floor Leader. He also sits on the House Finance Committee. Stokesbary was first elected in 2014, defeating Democrat Mike Sando. He previously worked as an aide to Pete von Reichbauer, a King County councilmember. In 2019, Stokesbary introduced legislation that would permit NCAA athletes enrolled at Washington colleges to receive compensation. Similar bills were subsequently filed in California and Colorado, and by Congressman Mark Walker (R-NC). Stokesbary reportedly considered running for Governor of Washington in 2020. Following J. T. Wilcox's resignation from the position, Stokesbary became the Washington House Minority Leader after the close of the 2023 legislative session.
