Washington's 5th District

A Leader
for This Moment.

David Womack

He Chose
to Show Up.

I didn't plan to run for Congress after my Air Force and civilian healthcare careers. I'm running because I've seen what happens when the people holding power stop caring. I wasn't recruited by big donors, corporate interests, or a party. I built a career solving real problems while watching Congress fail the people of my community.

David's Core Values
Integrity
Service
Excellence
"My parents raised me to always act with integrity. My faith inspires me to serve all. The Air Force taught me to lead with excellence. These are the values I strive to live by every day. These are the values I will take with me to Congress."
— David Womack
Not a career politician.

For me this is a calling. Not a stepping stone.

During my Air Force service, I honored my oath to support and defend our Constitution. My oath has no expiration date. Congress is bound by that same oath, but has forsaken it. Congress has failed to do its job and that's hurting us. Costs are rising everyday, the federal government is in chaos, and our rights and safety are being compromised. It doesn't have to be this way. I am now called to honor that oath and return our govenrment to its true purpose - to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty for ourselves and future generations.

Eastern Washington deserves someone who's committed to serve. Someone who's guided by values, not favors.
What that looks like in practice.

Principles, not talking points.

01
People over party

I'll put you first. Not whoever's writing the biggest check or pulling strings in D.C.

02
Solve it or own it

In the Air Force and at Whitman Hospital, there was no passing the buck. Congress should work the same way.

03
Listen before legislating

I've held listening sessions across the district. I heard you and your priorities are mine. I'll vote accordingly.

04
The Constitution isn't optional

Oversight, accountability, and the rule of law aren't partisan values — they're the foundation of the republic. And I will uphold them.
