# [#]John, Marie is making headlines with her people-first, local-first approach to her work in Congress – take a look:
Front Porch Republic
The Localist at the Capitol: A Conversation with Marie Gluesenkamp Perez:
“We need a balance between chasing the most pressing symptoms, and a longer and proportional focus on the underlying, the root causes of those symptoms. So maybe instead of talking about ‘economic’ versus ‘cultural’ issues, you talk more about root causes versus symptoms.”
The Nation
If Democrats Want to Appeal to Rural America, They Need to Talk Like a Neighbor:
“Polls and focus groups are useful but no substitute for people who live and breathe un-rarefied air every day of the week…[Voters] appreciate that these politicians…like Marie Gluesenkamp Perez…are genuinely ‘for’ something.”
Compact Magazine:
“Ever since Gluesenkamp Perez’s 2022 upset, national outlets have leaned on familiar labels to characterize her—’moderate,’ ‘centrist’... But Gluesenkamp Perez isn’t splitting the difference between two poles so much as she is working from a different starting point, centered on repair, ownership, and trade work.”
(On her amendment to establish a cognitive acuity standard for Members of Congress)
KGW
“There’s a real appetite for transparency and good governance.”
Axios
“Real respect for our communities and the body here is [being] willing to have these honest, candid and difficult conversations…It’s clear people want systemic reform. They want accountability.”
The New York Times
These Younger Democrats Are Sick of Their Party’s Status Quo
“A number of prominent younger Democrats with records of winning tough races are forming a new group with big ambitions to remake their party’s image, recruit a new wave of candidates and challenge political orthodoxies they say are holding the party back…[pushing the Democratic Party to] better address the issues that feel most urgent in voters’ lives…Members include Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington.”


Marie is upholding her promise to listen and bring all of our voices to the table, even when that means making tough decisions.

But, that fierce independence and loyalty to community has made her a target for far-right extremists who want to replace her with someone who puts politics above people.
