Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, D-Skamania. Haragan said she had joined the protest to represent youth who are concerned about what’s happening on the national level, especially when it comes to violent immigration enforcement raids. “There are just so many kids that are worried, and I felt like I should represent that,” she said.

Protesters have gathered in front of U.S. Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez’s Vancouver offices every day last week.
Many of them helped to elect the Skamania Democrat to Congress in 2022 and 2024 but have since grown frustrated with her, especially after her Jan. 22 vote to fund the Department of Homeland Security.
