Gluesenkamp Perez Hits Braun on Abortion as Battle Begins for Washington State House Seat
The 30-second spot is an early, six-figure attack in a closely watched U.S. House race as ballots are still being counted.
- On Tuesday, U.S. Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez launched a campaign ad accusing Republican John Braun of intending to outlaw abortion in Washington and nationwide, spending six figures to air the spot across broadcast, cable, and digital platforms.
- The ad features a video snippet from March where Braun expressed support for eventually rolling back Washington's nearly 60-year-old law legalizing abortion, telling Pacific County Republicans the party should focus on winning hearts and minds.
- Max Lavey, Braun's campaign manager, confirmed the comments on Monday, stating the senator believes abortion laws should be handled at the state level and does not support a nationwide ban.
- Meanwhile, the National Republican Congressional Committee released a dueling ad accusing the incumbent of supporting a state income tax, with spokesperson Christian Martinez claiming she "sells out Southwest Washington families to please her socialist party bosses."
- The race for the 3rd Congressional District seat is among 18 nationwide that will determine control of the U.S. House, making this one of the most closely watched federal races in a swing district.
