Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D), the sitting representative for WA-3 and a moderate Democrat running for reelection in a toss-up rural southwestern Washington seat (top-two primary Aug. 4, 2026), has a mostly pro-Israel-aid House floor record with one early exception. She voted No on H.R. 6126 (the Nov. 2023 $14.3B standalone Israel package offset by IRS cuts) but Yes on the three subsequent tracked Israel-aid measures: H.R. 7217 (Feb. 2024), H.R. 8034 (Apr. 2024) and H.R. 8369 (May 2024). On H.R. 8369 she was one of just 16 Democrats who joined most Republicans to try to force the Biden administration to deliver paused weapons, and she co-signed the May 10, 2024 letter from 26 House Democrats to National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan criticizing the arms pause. She is a cosponsor of H.R. 1229 (United States-Israel Defense Partnership Act of 2025) and not a sponsor of H.R. 3565 (Block the Bombs Act). She is backed by AIPAC's PAC (her record's aipacFunding field lists ~$285K career support; aipacEndorsed true). CONFIRMED on floor votes, the arms-pause letter, and AIPAC backing. No 2025-2026 statements in her own voice on conditioning aid, UNRWA, boycott-divestment-sanctions, or Israel bonds were verified on this pass.
