A Conversation with Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez

Soundside

One of the most closely watched congressional races of the 2024 election happened here in Washington State, with Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez facing off once again against Donald Trump-endorsed Republican Joe Kent.

The district went for Trump in the presidential race, but held on to the Auto Shop owner-turned-Congresswoman for another term.
And she’s here to talk about the win, what Democrats can learn from it, and her legislative priorities in office.
