Gov. Deval Patrick is making a two-day trip to Washington focused on state economic development and health care issues.

The Democrat was meeting Wednesday afternoon with Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius and Commerce Secretary Gary Locke, as well as Navy Secretary Ray Mabus.

He also planned to meet with Massachusetts National Guard and Army members at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center.

On Thursday, House Speaker Robert DeLeo was joining the governor for meetings with President Barack Obama, senior adviser David Axelrod, the Massachusetts congressional delegation and Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood.

Patrick and Wisconsin Gov. Jim Doyle were also meeting with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.
