Washougal resident Anne Haller expresses her opinions about the Third Congressional District race
Editor’s note: Opinions expressed in this letter to the editor are those of the author alone and do not reflect the editorial position of ClarkCountyToday.com
Our Nov. 8th local election is high stakes. The candidates running to represent us in Washington DC, Marie Perez and Joe Kent, couldn’t be more different.
Perez is a small business owner with deep roots in SW Washington.
Kent recently moved to our area from Portland so he could run for office.
Perez is a moderate concerned with healthcare costs, women’s rights, fair elections, and inflation.
Kent wants to defund the Department of Education, and significantly “change” Social Security.
Perez believes transparent government is vital and overturning Citizens’ United (which allows corporations and billionaires dark money into campaigns) is key.
Kent believes the 2020 election was stolen, the government created COVID, and promotes extreme conspiracies.
Perez is not connected to any DC politicians.
Kent is a Trump loyalist who says and does whatever he is told.
Vote for Perez – sensible US House Representative for SW Washington.
