About
Source: Campaign page
Marie Gluesenkamp Perez’s working-class roots run deep in Washington State. Her great-great-grandpa, Bert Gilmore, was the quarry foreman who helped build the Washington State Capitol. Her grandmother, Carol Gilmore, was born in a logging camp in Sappho, Washington. Marie’s own parents met at Western Washington University, after her father immigrated from Mexico.
Before being elected to Congress, Marie built an independent auto repair shop with her husband, Dean. They grew the shop to six bays and proudly provide living wage jobs in the trades. Like so many working families in Washington, Marie and Dean know how tough it’s been to navigate this economy. She worries about the rising cost of essentials like childcare, gas, and medicine.
Marie’s connection to her district, Washington’s third, is deeply personal. She and Dean are raising their young son in a home they built themselves, just like many of their neighbors in rural Skamania County. Her experiences as a small business owner, mother, and active community member give her a unique perspective on the challenges faced by the people she represents.

Issues
Economy & Jobs
Helping Small Businesses
My husband and I are the proud owners of an auto repair shop and we love our jobs, but it’s not easy to run a small business in America right now. We have to navigate the SBA, OSHA, the IRS, the EPA, local permitting and licensing; deliver quality, affordable service to our customers and most importantly– recruit and retain the best employees.
We need more political leadership that respects the trades and understands the challenges facing small businesses, and in Congress, I’ll continue to use my experience creating my business to support American manufacturing, cut through red tape, and streamline services Main Street businesses need to succeed.
Fix the Supply Chain
We need to do more to shore up our supply chains and invest in American manufacturing to prevent our small businesses from bearing the brunt of the devastation when something goes wrong. During the recent catalytic converter shortage, dealership-owned repair shops had first dibs on any available parts, hanging small businesses like mine out to dry and redirecting our customers to the largest auto companies. In Congress, I’ll continue to do more to encourage consumers to shop at small businesses, not penalize Main Street for not having the resources they need to skirt supply chain problems.
Stop Inflation
Our Representatives are completely out of touch with those of us struggling to keep up with the rising costs of food, gas, housing and prescription drugs. As co-owner of an auto repair and machine shop, I know how tough it’s been to navigate this economy. Like so many working Washingtonians, we do our best to stay ahead of bills; but because we cannot afford quality child care for our son, we take him to work with us.
While gas prices soar, gas companies are making record profits. As a Congresswoman for Washington state, I am working hard to ensure large corporations pay their fair share and stop price gouging.
- Increasing labor supply: We need to get more Americans back to work, and I mean increasing workforce participation, not just low unemployment, by making it easier for working families to live near their job and giving caregivers a safe and affordable place to bring their children. Similarly, we need to support training and education programs that open the doors to critical jobs in health care, trades and child care.
- Raising wages: Wages have simply not kept up with inflation. In 1968 my grandpa made $45/day working in the woods as a logger, today that would equate to an income of about $120k/year. I am proud to pay my employees a living wage and support efforts to increase the minimum wage for all workers, but this is just a start. The hard work of my family and families across Washington should be respected and compensated fairly.
Affordable Child Care
My husband and I take our baby to work with us everyday because there simply aren’t any affordable options that fit our needs. Since 2019, we have lost one out of every ten child care facilities in America. Many women I know are on waitlists for child care centers before they are even pregnant, and families spend upwards of $15,000 per child per year on care.
It’s no longer possible to save for a college fund, a down payment on a house, and pay off student loans while shelling out that kind of money for a critical service. In Congress, I am working to support the child tax credits that help parents make whatever choices are right for their family, whether that’s paying grandpa or going to a traditional care center.
Education
Support Pathways to Skills and Degrees
We need more skilled workers and cheaper degrees. In Congress, I am working to expand access to career and technical training at high schools, community colleges and vocational schools. My husband and I were fortunate to have legacy trades programs in our high schools, but they are often the first thing to get cut when budgets get tight. As a member of the advisory committee of two automotive educational programs I understand the challenges both in funding quality programs and recruiting good candidates.
Energy & Environment
Climate change is real and I believe in practicable, comprehensive environmental stewardship: We know that limiting our focus to just temperature is not sufficient to protect our economy and way of life. In Congress, I will…
Focus on Energy Independence: Americans deserve the autonomy that only comes from a secure, affordable, independent source of energy. Ten years ago, I was skeptical about the practicability of electric cars for rural America and concerned about the sustainability of the batteries that powered them. Today, we have incredible range, affordability and sustainability.
Bring back paper
Microplastics: As a new mom, I was horrified to learn that microplastics were being found in most of the placentas surveyed, and just this year one study found 80% of blood samples contained microplastics. These tiny particles leach chemicals known as Hormone Disruptors into the bloodstream and cause changes in the age at which puberty begins, fertility rates, cancer and are potentially linked to autism. Consumers deserve to know which products expose them to microplastics and what their actual effect is. I’ll fight to fund federal research into the effects of microplastics and Hormone Disrupting Chemicals on children and the environment.
Renewables: We need to make it easier for companies to use renewable packaging like cardboard and glass, and demand that companies who choose to use high levels of plastic packaging share the financial burden of ensuring it is properly recycled. Paper producing states like Washington can be leaders in the sustainable forestry that provides clean, renewable cardboard.
Healthcare
Taking on Big Pharma
Life saving medicine is too expensive, and in Congress, I’ll continue to fight for lower prescription drug costs. Big Pharma produces insulin for about $10 per vial but charges patients who desperately need this medicine up to 30 times more. As a result, 1 in 4 Americans who rely on insulin have rationed or skipped doses because they could not afford it.This gamble can land patients in the emergency room and result in astronomical medical bills for taxpayers and those Americans who can least afford it.
Everyday more Americans are diagnosed with diabetes and everyday Big Pharma looks for ways to price gouge and raise the prices of life saving medicine for the sake of corporate profit. The Affordable Insulin Now Act, which caps families’ insulin costs at $35 per month, is a start, but we must give Medicare the power to negotiate lower prescription drug prices and make commercial insurance plans to cover insulin.
Governance
Big Money Out of Politics
Special interests and party bosses have too much power in Washington and are failing to solve our biggest challenges. I’m serving to take on politicians who are bought and paid for by large corporations who refuse to pay their fair share while working families who follow the rules fall further behind. I haven’t taken a dime of Corporate PAC money and will continue to put people over profits. I like to get my hands dirty fixing things, not working the system.
Self Sufficiency
What if a judge told you you weren’t allowed to change a lightbulb in your house without paying the electric company a subscription fee? Right now, Intellectual Property Lawyers at large corporations are scheming ways to take away the rights of Americans to fix their own stuff. From cell phones to tractors, we are being bullied into a position of permanent renters.
Right-to-Repair legislation not only protects consumers’ rights to self-sufficiency, it also saves consumers money because they can repair things rather than buy new ones. This is exactly the kind of pocket book environmentalism I am fighting for as a Congresswoman.
Human Rights
Reproductive Freedom
Women have the right to control their own bodies, period. I am fighting to protect a woman’s right to make her own health care decisions no matter what the Supreme Court rules. I’ll continue to stand up to the politicians who want to tell women what to do and protect funding for Planned Parenthood.
In February of 2020 I miscarried at 16 weeks, and was told my life was at risk without an immediate abortion, or dilation and evacuation. Planned Parenthood was the only clinic that could see me, and I had to pass through a wall of protestors to get the care that I needed.
Public Safety
Safe Communities
According to the latest U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average salary for police patrol officers and detectives was $67,290 as of May 2020. How many people do you know that would risk their lives for less than $70,000 per year? Right now, federal legislation often funds police departments buying equipment like night vision goggles and new trucks. In Congress, I am working to increase the starting pay for police officers so we can recruit and retain the best public servants.
I’ll continue to work to increase funding for police, fire, and first responders and strengthen training for police officers. I’ll continue to support small, rural police departments and help build more community-based policing programs. I’ll continue to work to ensure our fire and rescue departments are staffed up and have the support they need to prevent firefighter and paramedic burnout. I’ll continue to ensure state and local officials have the resources and tools required to get Fentanyl and illegal guns off our streets.
American Manufacturing
When our local machine shop shut down due to the retirement of their machinists and lack of available apprentices we took proactive steps to keep that equipment in-service and bought out the shop. We need to retool our economy to make things here again, and provide the family wage jobs you can buy a house with. We need to stand up to China and make things in America again. As owners of an auto repair shop, we know better than most that the quality of parts out of China is unreliable, and when cars are repaired with substandard parts it is the middle class who suffers most.
In Congress, I’ll continue the work to boost American manufacturing that will strengthen our economy and create good jobs. I’ll keep building on legislation like the America Competes Act to invest in production of goods like semiconductors and parts here in America that will make us more secure and bring down inflation.
We are seeing more and more industrial spaces converted to (vacant) office buildings. I have a degree in economics and it took me a year of work to successfully apply for a loan from the small business administration. How many small business owners have that kind of time and manpower available to getting a loan, muchless one they are qualified to receive? We have to level the playing field and ensure that the tradespeople providing services that make communities vibrant and self-sufficient are able to buy in the communities they serve, and not be stuck renting from corporate landlords.

District
Source: Wikipedia
Washington’s 3rd congressional district encompasses the southernmost portion of Western Washington. It includes the counties of Lewis, Pacific, Wahkiakum, Cowlitz, Clark, and Skamania; as well as a small portion of southern Thurston county. The district is represented by Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez.
Wikipedia
Kristina Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (/ˈɡluːzənkæmp/; born June 4, 1988) is an American politician and businesswoman. A member of the Democratic Party, she has been the U.S. representative for Washington’s 3rd congressional district since 2023.
Early life and career
Gluesenkamp Perez was born on June 4, 1988.[1] Her father immigrated from Mexico[2] while her mother’s family has roots in Washington.[3] Gluesenkamp Perez grew up in Houston, where her father served as a pastor at an evangelical church. One of four children, she grew up in a family where her mother home-schooled them for their early education years. After high school, Gluesenkamp Perez initially attended Warren Wilson College but then later transferred to Reed College.[3] She graduated from Reed College in 2012 with a degree in economics.[4][2] She and her husband own an automobile repair shop in Portland, Oregon.[5]
In 2016, Gluesenkamp Perez lost a race for Skamania County Commissioner.[6] She received 32.79% of the vote in the August 2 primary election, finishing second behind Republican Richard Mahar.[7] In the general election on November 8, she lost to Mahar with 46.3% of the vote.[8]
In 2018, Gluesenkamp Perez lost a race for Skamania County Public Utility District Commissioner.[9]
Gluesenkamp Perez served on the Washington State Democratic Party executive committee 2020-2022.[10][11] Prior to her election to Congress, she served as a member of the Underwood Soil and Water District Conservation board of supervisors.
U.S. House of Representatives
Elections
2022
Gluesenkamp Perez advanced from a nonpartisan blanket primary, which was implemented in Washington state starting in the 2008 election.[10] In this format, all candidates of all parties are listed on the same primary ballot, and the two who get the most votes advance to the general election. In the primary, she finished first out of all candidates with 31.0% of the vote.[12] Republican Joe Kent finished in second place and also advanced to the general election, beating the incumbent representative, Republican Jaime Herrera Beutler, by .5%. Republican Heidi St. John finished fourth, with 16.0% of the vote. The other Democrat in the race, Davy Ray, received 2.2%. In the lead-up to the primary, Democrat Brent Hennrich, who had led in two early polls by the Trafalgar Group, withdrew from the race and endorsed Gluesenkamp Perez.[13]
The general election’s rating varied from “Lean R”, according to The Cook Political Report, to “Solid R” in FiveThirtyEight's House of Representatives forecast.[14][15] FiveThirtyEight estimated that Gluesenkamp Perez had a 2% chance of winning the general election over Kent, and was expected to receive 43.6% of the popular vote. She led in one of two polls and was trailing in the other, but both were within the margin of error.[16] Her subsequent narrow victory received widespread national attention, with The Seattle Times calling it “the most stunning political upset in the country this year,”[2] and as “a microcosm of the midterms”.[17][18] Kent conceded on December 21, following a recount.[19][20]
Committee assignments
Caucus memberships
Political positions
Gluesenkamp Perez campaigned as a moderate Democrat who was a “supporter of both abortion rights and Second Amendment rights“. She “emphasized support for small businesses, job training and local concerns, like the timber industry” and opposition to political extremism.[2][29]
Following her election, she has taken a role as a co-chair of the Blue Dog Coalition and has joined the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus. Her record has been criticized by pro-choice activists and student debt activists, and her business has received negative online reviews in protest.[26]
In the 2016 Democratic Party presidential primaries, Gluesenkamp Perez supported Bernie Sanders.[30]
Abortion
Gluesenkamp Perez supports abortion access, citing her personal experience having an abortion after a miscarriage.[6][31][32] KGW described her support for abortion rights as “a tenet of her campaign”.[6]
In January 2023, she voted against the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which would criminalize healthcare providers in failing to provide care for an infant born alive after an abortion attempt.[33]
Elections
Gluesenkamp Perez believes that vote by mail is safe and has refuted unsubstantiated claims of widespread fraud among mail-in ballots.[6]
Gun control
Gluesenkamp Perez opposes an outright ban on assault weapons, but supports raising the age required to purchase an assault weapon from 18 to 21.[5][6]
In June 2023, Gluesenkamp Perez voted against a bill to repeal a pistol brace ban. The ban would later be deemed unconstitutional by a federal court in 2024.[34]
Inflation
Gluesenkamp Perez blames inflation on companies outsourcing jobs, and states that is the top issue affecting voters in her district.[6] She has called for both increased usage of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve in the short term and a long-term increase in the number of jobs available in green industries.[35]
Infrastructure
She has touted her role in securing $600 million in federal funding to rebuild the Route I-5 bridge.[36] Gluesenkamp Perez, citing the economic losses experienced in her district from landslides, co-sponsored the renewal of the National Landslide Preparedness Act in 2024.[37]
Military and veterans
On July 14, 2023, Gluesenkamp Perez voted to pass the annual National Defense Authorization Act that included provisions to bar Pentagon spending for abortion and transgender surgeries.[38] She defended her vote by saying the Senate would “clean up” the bill.[39]
In early 2024, Gluesenkamp Perez introduced the Rural Veterans Transportation to Care Act that would expand transportation to veterans attempting to access medical care. In July, after a letter she had sent earlier received no response, she hand delivered a petition to the head of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) requesting the reopening of a VA clinic in Lewis County. The prior clinic was closed in 2021 and replaced with a limited mobile care unit, requiring approximately 3,000 veterans in the county to travel out of the area to Olympia, Washington.[40]
Right-to-repair
In May 2023, Gluesenkamp Perez helped introduce the REPAIR Act and the SMART Act, two bipartisan right-to-repair bills that seek to require auto manufacturers to share parts, tools, and data needed for repairs at lower costs.[41]
Student debt
Gluesenkamp Perez voted against a student debt relief plan proposed by the White House in 2023. She was one of only two House Democrats to do so, along with Jared Golden of Maine.[42] At the time, she said, “expansions of student debt forgiveness need to be matched dollar-for-dollar with investments in career [and] technical education. I can’t support the first without the other. The severe shortage of trades workers needs to be seen [and] treated as a national priority.”[43][44]
Personal life
Gluesenkamp Perez lives near Stevenson, Washington, in Skamania County.[10] She is married to Dean Gluesenkamp, and has one child.[45][6] The couple owns Dean’s Car Care, INC in the Portland metro area.[26] Gluesenkamp Perez is a nondenominational Christian.[46][47]
Gluesenkamp Perez failed for more than six months to pay 2022 property taxes on her Portland auto repair shop. She then paid them after being contacted about it by The Oregonian.[48]
