“I endorse Diana because I feel we need strong representation in Olympia who will support ALL people.”
-
“I am proud to endorse Diana Perez for the 17th Legislative District for reasons that matter deeply to me as a community member, a mom, and a Chicana. Diana’s years of involvement and work show a real commitment to the people she serves. This isn’t new for her, she has consistently shown up for her community, and that matters.
Her education, professional experience, and background in environmental issues are also incredibly important. At a time when our communities are directly impacted by environmental decisions, we need leaders who understand what’s at stake and are prepared to protect our resources for future generations. What stands out to me most is how she shows up with people. She listens. She validates. She builds relationships. That kind of leadership is not only needed, it’s essential at the state level where decisions impact so many different communities. And representation matters. For Latina girls, women, and mothers to see someone who reflects them in leadership, it matters. It shapes what feels possible. Diana is someone I am genuinely excited about and someone I trust to lead with integrity, care, and accountability.” -

“I am proud to endorse Diana Perez for Washington State Representative, Legislative District 17, Position 2.
Diana believes in building a brighter future together—something that deeply resonates with me as a child and victim advocate. Her commitment to creating affordability for families is not just important, it’s essential. Families across our communities deserve stability and opportunity, and Diana understands that.
Equally important, she recognizes that keeping people safe must remain a top priority—from our local neighborhoods to communities across Washington State. I am confident Diana will work tirelessly to ensure safety and well-being for all Washingtonians.
