Democratic incumbent Marie Gluesenkamp Perez is running for a second term serving Washington’s 3rd Congressional District in the U.S. House. Perez defeated MAGA challenger Joe Kent in 2022. She runs a family auto repair shop with her husband.
In office, Perez has been a voice for rural and working-class Washington communities. She has fought to save families money by reducing the price of prescription drugs and supporting the "right to repair" to save money for her constituents and reduce waste. She has been a champion for vocational education. Her voting record has been independent, reflecting her district on border policy, the environment, education, and public safety. Her campaign platform in this race remains focused on the issues affecting regular Washingtonians like affordable childcare, substance abuse treatment, energy independence, abortion and reproductive health care access, holding large corporations accountable, and raising wages to match the rising cost of living.
Perez has remained laser-focused on improving lives for the people of the 3rd Congressional District. For example, she has focused on improving job-supporting infrastructure, including securing $600 million for a new I-5 Bridge across the Columbia River.
Perez is being challenged by MAGA extremist Joe Kent, who is running again after narrowly losing his 2022 bid. He has an exceptionally far-right platform and the endorsement of Donald Trump.
Kent has repeatedly called for a national abortion ban and is a divisive conspiracy theorist who champions an angry, white nationalist agenda that will harm our community. He’s promised to “hunt down” his political opponents and engage in “strategic decapitation” of them and declared he is “at war” with his political opponents. He has campaigned on the promise to impeach President Biden and Vice President Harris, and the dangerous lie that Trump won the 2020 election. Notably, he opposes fixing the I-5 bridge and wants to defund the FBI and eliminate the Department of Education.
We need leaders who will stand up for us, not divisive conspiracy theorists focused on extreme partisan nonsense. Perez has earned your vote for a second term in Congress.
