A cancer lab having to start a GoFundMe is insane. This is Trump’s America — where billionaires get tax cuts and researchers beg for funding.

Today was a career highlight. SB 1658 was signed into law, protecting animals from abuse and neglect. It’s the most impactful bill that Arizona Humane Society has championed in over a decade. Thank you to our relentless sponsor Shawnna LM Bolick and thank you for your support Governor Katie Hobbs

Today with our friends at Arizona Humane Society we celebrated the signing of SB1658 (Jerry’s Law), which will strengthen animal cruelty laws for vulnerable pets. I promised to be a Governor for ALL Arizonans, and that includes our animal friends!

Republicans know this. We had bills to stop this. Neither got a hearing: SB 1417 would require funds to revert back to the state after a year of nonrenewal. SB 1451 would prohibit funding from being used for college. Senator Sen. Lauren Kuby sponsored both bills this legislative

A real gem on Outspoken with Bruce & Gaydos on KTAR News 92.3 was when Diciccio told Sen. Analise Ortiz (@senanaliseortiz.bsky.social) "I have to work, they should too!" in defense of Medicaid cuts Remember when Sal was getting a govt salary & benfits but barely ever showed up? Dude didn't work. Constituents were going to other CMs for help.

For 115 years we have built Arizona from the mines of eastern Arizona to the skyscrapers, power plants, stadiums, bridges and rebar that connect our state today. Excellence is the standard and we will continue to accept nothing less as we continue to build Arizona’s future!

This is an outrage. ICE agents report they’re being told to ignore drug trafficking and child exploitation to chase quotas. The president promised Arizonans he'd go after the worst of the worst. He needs to keep his promise and prioritize criminals to keep our communities safe.

This is enraging and heartbreaking—and it demands accountability from Kristi Noem. Farm workers feed this country. They deserve dignity and safety.

Money that was already appropriated and counted on is suddenly being withheld. Schools should never be pawns in political games. Arizona’s kids and teachers deserve better. I’m calling on the administration to release these funds immediately and support Attorney General Mayes’

Hundreds of thousands of Arizonans are waking up to a fresh start. We’ve canceled $429 million in medical debt for over 352,000 people across our state. Medical debt shouldn’t hold anyone back from building a secure, healthy future. This is about restoring dignity, easing

Our local and state law enforcement have a tough job to do. Impersonating them puts our officers in harm's way and undermines public trust. Impersonating a law enforcement officer is a felony in Arizona, and anybody caught doing so will be charged to the fullest extent of the
