Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, a U.S. Congress representative for Washington’s 3rd district since 2023, has shared her views and sentiments through a series of tweets. Born in Harris County, Texas, in 1988, Perez now resides in Washougal and holds a BA from Reed College.

On July 3, 2025, Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez expressed concerns about the implications of the budget reconciliation bill. She stated that “Under the budget reconciliation bill, everyday families will come out in the negative, while Wall Street reaps the real benefits.” According to her analysis, this legislation would lead to an increase in national debt which could exacerbate inflation and interest rates. This rise would consequently escalate costs related to energy, food, and healthcare.

Later that day on July 3rd, she provided additional resources for those interested in understanding more about these issues by sharing a link with the message “Learn more:“.

On July 4th, Perez took to social media again to extend holiday wishes for Independence Day. She tweeted “Wishing everyone a happy Fourth of July weekend with family and friends!” She encouraged celebrations that honor freedoms and independence while also being mindful of safety within natural environments.

Marie Gluesenkamp Perez succeeded Jaime Herrera Beutler as a congressional representative in 2023.
