Voter guide

Background, stated goals, record, and money

Goals come from the campaign's own platform. Record lines are official actions.

How this guide is built

Background comes from official records, and from the campaign's own biography where the bullet says so; goals are summarized from the campaign's own platform and stay attributed; the record lines are official actions with the government source attached; money is shown as filed, with the filings it covers in the note under the table, and is not evidence of why any position was taken.

Marie Gluesenkamp Perez

Background

  • The sitting representative for Washington's 3rd district since January 2023, in her second term; Congress.gov records two terms.
  • She won the seat in 2022 by 2,629 votes of 319,759 cast, and placed second in the August 4, 2026 top-two primary with 78,025 votes.
  • Her campaign says she and her husband built an independent auto repair shop to six bays, and that she is a fifth-generation Washingtonian whose father immigrated from Mexico.
  • Congress.gov lists 60 bills and resolutions she has sponsored across two Congresses. One became law under its own number, naming the post office in Bucoda, Washington. The one change her Protecting Moms and Infants Reauthorization Act (H.R. 4092) proposed, $38,931,000 a year for residential treatment of pregnant and postpartum women, became law with the years moved in section 201 of Public Law 119-44 in December 2025; she voted for that bill. Her other bills were not matched against later laws.

What they say they want to do

  • No national abortion ban.
  • Lower costs for housing, childcare and health care, the last by cutting out middlemen.
  • More federal money for police and firefighter pay, to keep officers from leaving.
  • A renewed and expanded Child Tax Credit.
  • Social Security strengthened for the long run without raising the retirement age or cutting benefits.

What the official record shows

  • Sponsored two farm-equipment right-to-repair bills, the Agricultural Right to Repair Act (H.R. 5604) in 2023 and the FARM Act (H.R. 5857) in 2025; each was referred to committee and went no further.
  • Sponsored the Shrinkflation Prevention Act of 2024 (H.R. 7825); it was referred to a subcommittee and went no further.
  • Sponsored the Lowering Energy Costs for Manufactured Homeowners Act (H.R. 9935), a tax bill referred to the Ways and Means Committee.
  • Voted Nay on passage of H.R. 1, the 2025 reconciliation act, and No on the final House vote on July 3; it became Public Law 119-21.
  • Voted for the Stop Insider Trading Act (H.R. 7008), which bars members of Congress from buying stocks and, as passed, also requires photo ID to vote. It passed the House 232 to 198 on July 22, 2026.

Receipts from political committees on lines 11B (party committees), 11C (other political committees) and 12 (transfers from joint fundraising committees) of her committee's 2025-2026 cycle filings through July 15, 2026, grouped by the FEC's recorded organization type or designation of the giving committee. The party row is line 11B, $2,905.31. The joint fundraising row is $2,788,314.63 reported on line 12, most of it from her own MGP Victory Fund, plus $10,000 two joint fundraising committees gave on line 11C; the other rows, $851,810.91, are the rest of line 11C. Each line's itemized rows sum to the committee's own summary total for that line to the cent, and the table totals $3,653,030.85. Memo entries are left out because they restate money counted elsewhere: 6,218 on line 12 itemize what the joint fundraising committees passed on, and 20 on line 11C. Not in the table: contributions from individuals, including those made through ActBlue, which are individual contributions and not committee money. The rows sum to 3,653,030.85 dollars.

Money from special interests

No assessment

What they say

Under the heading "Ending the influence of Corporate Money", her campaign says it does not take money from special interests, and gives drug companies as its example.

What the record shows ·

Through July 15, her PAC receipts were $861,810.91: none from drug makers, $3,500 from an independent pharmacy group and $305,500.01 lobbyist-linked. Special interest is undefined.

What they say

Under the heading "Ending the influence of Corporate Money", her campaign says it does not take money from special interests, and gives drug companies as its example.

“Her campaign doesn’t take money from special interests (like drug companies).”

What the record shows ·

Through July 15, 2026 her committee reported $861,810.91 this cycle from political committees other than parties (line 11C). None is the committee of a drug manufacturer. One is recorded by the FEC as a corporation's PAC: Edward Jones PAC, $2,500 in December 2025. One is from the drug trade: the National Community Pharmacists Assoc PAC, the committee of an association of independent pharmacies, gave $1,000 in June 2025 and $2,500 in June 2026. Seventy-seven of the committees that gave, together $305,500.01, are ones the FEC designates as lobbyist or registrant PACs, among them medical, dental, insurance and auto-care trade groups. Most of her committee money, $2,798,314.63, arrived as transfers from joint fundraising committees, chiefly her own MGP Victory Fund.

Why there is no assessment here

No filing defines a special interest, so the record cannot say whether the claim holds. Her page puts the sentence under a heading about corporate money. The one giver the FEC types as a corporation PAC is Edward Jones PAC, $2,500. Other business-tied PACs gave too: a sugar cooperative's, American Crystal Sugar Company ($7,500), and two law firms', K&L Gates and Holland & Knight ($1,000 each). The record can also test the example she gives: no drug manufacturer's committee has given, and a pharmacists' association has given $3,500. Whether any of these is the kind of special interest she means is a judgment this desk leaves to the reader.

Limit: Committee money only. Donations from individuals, including those made through ActBlue, are not special-interest money on any reading and are not counted. The lobbyist or registrant designation is the FEC's classification of a committee connected to a registered lobbyist, not this desk's. Joint fundraising committees pass on money they raised themselves; their memo entries on her reports were read for drug-industry names and found none among committees, but their own full filings were not read.

Right to repair

Matches stated direction

What they say

Her campaign says she is working to stop manufacturers of farm and consumer equipment from forcing customers to pay the original manufacturer for repairs.

She has sponsored four right-to-repair bills, two for farm equipment, and cosponsored others on consumer electronics, but none has become law.

Her campaign says she is working to stop manufacturers of farm and consumer equipment from forcing customers to pay the original manufacturer for repairs.

“She is working to stop manufacturers of farm and consumer equipment from gouging their customers by forcing them to pay the original manufacturer for repairs.”

What the record shows ·

She has sponsored four right-to-repair bills. Two concern farm equipment: the Agricultural Right to Repair Act (H.R. 5604, introduced September 20, 2023) and the FARM Act (H.R. 5857, October 28, 2025), which would require manufacturers to make documentation, parts, software and tools for farm equipment available. Two concern equipment the military buys: the Servicemember Right-to-Repair Act of 2024 (H.R. 10401) and the Warrior Right to Repair Act of 2025 (H.R. 5155). She was the only original cosponsor of the Fair Repair Act, which covers consumer digital electronic equipment, in 2024 (H.R. 8544) and again in 2026 (H.R. 7404), and of the Wheelchair Right to Repair Act (H.R. 5039, 2025), which covers powered wheelchairs. She was an original cosponsor of the REPAIR Act, on motor-vehicle repair, in both Congresses (H.R. 906, 2023; H.R. 1566, 2025). A subcommittee forwarded each version to the full Energy and Commerce Committee, on November 2, 2023 and February 10, 2026.

Limit: "Working to" is what sponsorship and cosponsorship show, and none of these bills has become law. The furthest any has gone is a subcommittee vote on the REPAIR Act, a motor-vehicle bill led by another member, in 2023 and again in 2026; her own farm bills were referred to committee and went no further.

A ban on members trading stocks

Matches stated direction

What they say

Her campaign says members of Congress should be banned from trading individual stocks.

What the record shows ·

She cosponsored five unvoted stock bills and backed July 2026 House purchase restrictions, still awaiting the Senate. That bill does not require selling existing holdings.

Quotes, full record and limits

What they say

Her campaign says members of Congress should be banned from trading individual stocks.

“She also believes that we need to ban our Representatives from other behaviors that erode public trust, like trading individual stocks.”

What the record shows ·

She is an original cosponsor of the No Corruption in Government Act (H.R. 358), introduced January 13, 2025 by Representative Zach Nunn; its section 102 would bar members of Congress and their spouses from holding, buying or selling securities and commodities while in office, with exceptions for diversified funds, Treasury securities and blind trusts. She was also an original cosponsor of the TRUST in Congress Act, which would require members and their families to put covered investments in a blind trust, in both Congresses (H.R. 345, January 12, 2023; H.R. 396, January 14, 2025), and later joined the Prohibit Insider Trading Act (H.R. 1138, 118th Congress) and the Restore Trust in Congress Act (H.R. 5106, 119th Congress). None of those five has had a floor vote. On July 22, 2026 she voted for Rep. Bryan Steil's Stop Insider Trading Act (H.R. 7008), which passed the House 232 to 198 (Roll Call 280). She was one of 13 Democrats who voted yes. Just before, she voted for Rep. Seth Magaziner's motion to send it back to committee, which failed 211 to 218 (Roll Call 279). The bill bars members, spouses and dependent children from buying stocks and requires public notice 7 to 14 days before a sale. It does not make them sell what they hold. As passed, it also requires photo ID to vote. It is on the Senate calendar.

Limit: Cosponsorship is support, not passage. The five bills are every stock-trading bill on her cosponsored list on Congress.gov, searched by title on September 23, 2026; she joined two after they were introduced. The House Clerk's roll-call lists for 2023 to 2026, searched by title on September 24, 2026, show no other vote on members' stock trading.

Pell Grants for job training

What they say

Her campaign says she is working to let Pell Grants pay for job training, not just college degrees.

“She is also working to allow Pell Grants to apply to job training, not just college degrees.”

What the record shows ·

She joined the JOBS Act of 2023 (H.R. 793), officially a bill to extend Pell Grant eligibility to certain short-term programs, as a cosponsor on May 24, 2023; it had no floor vote. Workforce Pell Grants became law in 2025 as section 83002 of Public Law 119-21, the reconciliation act, which she voted against on passage on May 22, 2025 (Roll Call 145) and on the final House vote on July 3, 2025 (Roll Call 190).

Limit: Her cosponsorship shows the direction she states. Her votes against the act that created Workforce Pell Grants were votes on a reconciliation bill of several hundred pages, not on that section, and a vote against a vehicle is not a vote against each of its provisions. They are still the only recorded votes she has cast on a law that did what her campaign says she is working toward, and a reader should see both.

“like opposing mergers of major grocery chains and opposing deceptive “Shrinkflation” food packaging”

What the record shows ·

She sponsored the Shrinkflation Prevention Act of 2024 (H.R. 7825), introduced March 26, 2024 and referred to a subcommittee. Separately, she sponsored the Fair Prices for Local Businesses Act (H.R. 8184, April 2, 2026), which would strengthen the Clayton Act's prohibition on price discrimination; it concerns pricing, not mergers. No official record of her opposing a grocery-chain merger was found: none of the titles of her 57 sponsored bills and resolutions concerns a merger, and searches of her House office's site and of news coverage of congressional letters on the Kroger and Albertsons merger did not find her name.

Limit: The label rests on the shrinkflation half, where her sponsorship matches the direction she states. The merger half is unconfirmed, not disproved: opposition to a merger usually takes the form of a letter or a comment to the Federal Trade Commission, and the FTC's docket for the Kroger and Albertsons merger was not searched.

“She worked to secure $600 million in funding needed to replace the 100-year-old I-5 bridge.”

In their own words, dated

“Rep. Gluesenkamp Perez, Sen. Cantwell, and Sen. Murray co-led a bipartisan Washington delegation letter in August in support of the states’ Mega grant application.”

What the record shows ·

On August 29, 2023 she signed a letter to Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg supporting the joint Washington and Oregon application to the federal Mega grant program for the Interstate Bridge Replacement Program; all twelve members of Washington's congressional delegation signed it, and her name is third, after the two senators. The program was awarded $600 million on December 15, 2023. Its announcement credits the two states and their congressional delegations; Washington's governor thanks Senators Murray and Cantwell by name.

Limit: A letter of support is what "worked to secure" can be checked against, and it holds; it does not measure her share of the result. The Department of Transportation awarded the grant on the states' application, and every member of the state's delegation signed the same letter. That she co-led it is the account of a joint release by her office and Senators Cantwell and Murray, which the Senate Commerce Committee also published; the letter shows only the order of signatures. The program's announcement lists toll revenue, which both states had authorized, among the sources that will pay for the bridge alongside the grant, so the grant does not by itself avoid tolls. And an award is not a finished bridge.

What the record shows ·

The Bipartisan Index, published by the Lugar Center and Georgetown University's McCourt School, ranked her 12th in the House for 2023, the first year of her first term, in rankings released May 14, 2024. The index scores how often a member's bills draw cosponsors from the other party and how often the member cosponsors the other party's bills.

Limit: One year's ranking, by a private publisher's formula rather than an official record. The publisher's Bipartisan Index page, read September 23, 2026, carries no House ranking later than 2023, so the present tense of the claim rests on that year.

On October 4, 2024 she introduced the Lowering Energy Costs for Manufactured Homeowners Act (H.R. 9935). It would give a refundable tax credit of 20 percent of the cost of adding weather-resistant skirting to a manufactured home, up to $500. It was sent to the Ways and Means Committee and went no further. In July 2025 the House Appropriations Committee's report on the 2026 energy and water bill encouraged the Energy Department to favor skirting and awnings in its weatherization grants. Her office called that her provision in February 2026.

Limit: Her record shows one skirting bill, and it never left committee. The report language asks the Energy Department to favor skirting in its grants; it is not a tax rebate.

She was an original cosponsor of the Women's Health Protection Act in 2023 and again in 2025 (H.R. 12 both times). It would give patients a right to end a pregnancy before viability, and providers a right to provide abortions, free of bans. She was also an original cosponsor of the Ensuring Women's Right to Reproductive Freedom Act both times (H.R. 782, H.R. 4099), which would stop anyone acting under state law from blocking travel to another state for a legal abortion. In 2023 and again in 2024 she voted against House amendments to the defense bill that barred the Pentagon from paying abortion-related expenses (Roll Call 300 in 2023, Roll Call 263 in 2024). Both passed, and each time she then voted for the whole defense bill with the amendment in it (Roll Calls 328 and 279). Neither amendment is in the final law (Public Laws 118-31 and 118-159).

Limit: Cosponsoring is support, not passage: none of the four bills has had a House vote. Both defense bills she voted for carried an abortion amendment she had voted against the day before.

What the record shows ·

Rep. Lisa McClain introduced the Build Now Act (H.R. 6363) on December 2, 2025, with Rep. Jim Himes as original cosponsor; Gluesenkamp Perez joined as a cosponsor on January 30, 2026. Its text became section 213 of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act (Public Law 119-101), which became law without the President's signature on July 11, 2026. It changes the community development block grants that cities and urban counties get: places whose housing growth improves at or above the median get a bonus, and those below it lose 10 percent. She voted for the final House version on June 23, 2026 (Roll Call 224).

Limit: Congress lists her as a cosponsor, not the sponsor; the site counts both. The law does not change permitting rules itself. It ties grant money to housing growth, starting in the third full fiscal year after it passed.

The President's 2027 budget proposed no money for the Chemical Safety Board. The House Appropriations Committee's draft of the 2027 Interior bill gave it $8,235,000. On June 3, 2026 the committee adopted subcommittee chairman Mike Simpson's manager's amendment by voice vote, which raised that to $14,000,000, and it reported the bill (H.R. 9171) with $14,000,000 on June 5. Her office says the increase was her amendment.

Limit: This is a committee bill. The full House has not voted on it, so the money is not law. The increase came in the Republican subcommittee chairman's amendment; that it was hers is her office's account.

What the record shows ·

She was an original cosponsor of the House bill to renew the Secure Rural Schools program, H.R. 1383, introduced by Rep. Doug LaMalfa on February 14, 2025. The Senate's version, S. 356, passed the House 399 to 5 on December 9, 2025 with her Yea (Roll Call 315), and became Public Law 119-58 on December 18, 2025. It extends the program's payments through fiscal 2026 and orders the 2024 and 2025 payments made within 45 days.

What the record shows ·

She is a cosponsor of the No Tax on Tips Act (H.R. 482), introduced by Rep. Vern Buchanan on January 16, 2025; she joined on October 6, 2025. It would let workers deduct up to $25,000 a year in cash tips and sets no end date. The 2025 law's tips deduction ends after 2028. H.R. 482 has had no committee or floor vote.

Limit: Congress lists her as a cosponsor, not the sponsor; the site counts both. The bill was written before the 2025 law passed, and it is still in committee.

In the October 7 KOIN 6 debate, Gluesenkamp Perez said that from day one she put muscle behind getting as much federal money as possible for the I-5 bridge, and that she brought back $2.1 billion for the project.

What the record shows ·

The bridge program has two large federal grants: $600 million from the Mega program in December 2023 and $1.499 billion from the Bridge Investment Program in July 2024, about $2.1 billion together, plus a $1 million planning grant in 2022. Both large grants were awarded on applications from the states' transportation departments. She signed the August 2023 letter backing the Mega application with all of Washington's congressional delegation. Her office says she led a November 2023 letter with Senators Murray and Cantwell backing the second grant.

What the record shows ·

On January 15, 2026 she wrote to Rear Adm. Arex Avanni, the Coast Guard's Northwest commander, backing the bridge program's request for a fixed span with 116 feet of clearance. On January 16 the Coast Guard told the program it would allow the fixed span. Washington Governor Bob Ferguson says he also met Coast Guard leaders to make the case.

Limit: Her letter backed the outcome a day before it came; the decision was the Coast Guard's, on the states' request. The $1 billion cost gap she cites was not checked.

Record does not bear out the claim

What they say

In the October 7 KOIN 6 debate, Gluesenkamp Perez said the funding bill she voted for provided body cameras and agent ID numbers, ended ICE enforcement at schools, churches, courtrooms and hospitals, and ended an administrative removal process that did not require a judge-signed warrant.

What the record shows ·

She voted Yea on H.R. 7147 (January 22), H.R. 7744 (March 5) and H.R. 8029 (March 26), 2026. Each House-passed bill included $20 million for immigration agents' and officers' body cameras, without the claimed agent ID requirement, sensitive-location ban or judge-signed warrant requirement. The incorporated explanatory statement encouraged identifiable federal uniforms and continued ICE guidance and reporting on sensitive locations; it did not ban enforcement there. Public Law 119-86 kept the camera funding but gave the statement's ICE section no force or effect.

Limit: Her answer referred to a bill she voted for. This comparison covers those funding bills and the enacted law, excluding negotiating offers and other ICE rules. Her warrant claim concerned an administrative removal process, not every removal.
