    Gluesenkamp Perez raises $1.3M, dodges income tax questions

    Marie Gluesenkamp Perez pulled in $1.3 million in three months while John Braun raised $356,000 in their closely watched 3rd District race. But the incumbent congresswoman won't say where she stands on Washington's new income tax that has voters fired up. Braun points out that only 7.8% of her donations came from within Washington State, with over $600,000 bundled from New York City financiers. The Republican challenger, backed by Trump's endorsement, says the income tax is the top issue voters bring up on the campaign trail. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/news/video-congresswoman-gluesenkamp-perez-still-mum-about-was-new-income-tax/ #WashingtonPolitics #3rdDistrict #CampaignFinance #IncomeTax #Congress #Election2026 #ClarkCounty #MarieGluesenkampPerez #JohnBraun
