During a recent League of Women Voters of Clark County interview panel, candidates hoping to represent Washington’s 3rd Congressional District — including two Camas candidates — got candid about everything from immigration and wars abroad to securing energy sources for the future and preserving programs like Social Security and Medicare. 

Incumbent Democratic Congresswoman Marie Gluesenkamp Perez and two of her three  challengers — Republican candidate Leslie Lewallen and Independent candidate John Saulie-Rohman, both of Camas — participated in the League of Women Voters interviews. The League said Republican candidate Joe Kent’s campaign did not respond to requests from the nonpartisan organization to take part in the interviews.
