"We need more and more normal people to run for Congress. We need more people that work in the trades," Gluesenkamp Perez told Politico in 2023, as she described a Democratic Party out of touch with middle-class Americans.

"Just like her pal Nancy Pelosi, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez will say and do anything to get elected," Congressional Leadership Fund, the super PAC dedicated to maintaining the Republican majority in the U.S. House of Representatives, spokeswoman Torunn Sinclair, told Fox News Digital.
"That’s not a quality Washington State families want in their congresswoman."
Gluesenkamp Perez was first elected to represent Washington in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2022 and won re-election in 2024, narrowly defeating her Republican challenger, Joe Kent, for the second time in two House cycles.
The Washington congresswoman is considered one of the most vulnerable House Democrats in 2026, just as she was in 2024 after winning her 2022 race by less than two points. Republicans are likely to target her seat as an opportunity to widen their majority in the House.
While Republicans slam Gluesenkamp Perez for flip-flopping on Pelosi, she is also facing the fury of her own party as hundreds of Democratic constituents protested at her town hall on Thursday.

Gluesenkamp Perez also faced disapproval from Washington state Democrats for voting to censure Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, after he shouted and shook his cane during President Donald Trump's joint address to Congress earlier this year.
