Letter: Gluesenkamp Perez earns support

Rational Republicans helped secure Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez’s 2022 victory by 2,629 votes, a less than 1 percent margin against MAGA candidate Joe Kent.

Rational Republicans turned their backs on Joe Kent’s extremist platform in 2022, when 14,309 more voters supported the Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, Tiffany Smiley, than Kent in this district.

Perez’s first term proved she is an independent thinker, voting with Republicans on bills and proposed bills that gained bipartisan support.

Now it’s time for Southwest Washington to stand strong and support our congresswoman, who represents the district and not allegiance to a political agenda.
