Before I came to Congress, I was running an auto repair and machine shop. I was raising my family, making payroll, and doing the hard work that so many Americans do every day.
That’s why I’m proud to be a Blue Dog. We’re not party insiders. We’re not rubber-stamp politicians. We’re normal people who understand what it means to fight for our communities — because we’ve lived it.
But that’s also why we’re under attack.
Dark money groups and GOP super PACs have already labeled my race a toss-up, and they’re pouring millions into smear campaigns to knock me out of Congress. If they succeed, Democrats lose our path to the majority — and extremists keep control of the House. That’s a future we cannot afford.
Your donation today isn’t just about supporting my race. It’s about protecting every vulnerable Blue Dog seat, flipping the districts that will give us the Speaker’s gavel, and proving that working people can still beat billionaire-backed super PACs.
This deadline is our chance to show the grassroots strength of our coalition — and every single dollar will be counted on our public report.
Thank you for believing in the future we’re fighting for,
— Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
Blue Dogs are normal people in Congress who want to get sh*t done. We believe in freedom and we’re fighting to protect yours. We’re pro-America, pro-democracy, and working to pass fiscally responsible policies that benefit everyday, hard-working Americans.
