Great crowd in Phoenix at my Social Security town hall with Martin O'Malley! People are angry—and rightfully so. Trump’s reckless attacks on our seniors’ benefits won’t go without pushback from our communities. Tune in now at facebook.com/share/v/16Ykr3…

I’m honored to lead a bipartisan effort with my Arizona colleagues to rename the Tucson Federal Building in honor of the late Congressman Raúl Grijalva. He was a friend, a colleague, and a proud son of Arizona. Our hope is that this small but lasting tribute to his decades of

Thank you to the seniors who joined @martinomalley and me for yesterday’s Social Security Town Hall. Your stories and questions matter. While the Trump Administration continues its reckless attacks on earned benefits, I’ll keep fighting in Congress to protect what you’ve worked

Donald Trump doesn’t have the powers of a king, he has the powers of a president. We will take it to the courts each time he oversteps his authority. More from Politics Unplugged with Dennis Welch ⬇️

Ted Cooke, former Central Arizona Project general manager, is a good choice to lead the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation. We’re at a critical juncture for the Colorado River, and Ted’s decades of expertise will be invaluable in tough conversations. I look forward to working with him

Mass deportations that target workers, women, and children over violent criminals aren’t just cruel, they’re bad for our economy. Even President Trump has admitted this, pointing to the harm it does to industries like agriculture and hospitality—causing prices to go up for

We’re already seeing the first extreme heat warnings of the year, but most cities still lack the resources to respond. To help, I introduced the Extreme Weather & Heat Response Modernization Act: ✅ FEMA grants for cooling centers & more ✅ Require planning for longer, deadlier

Trump and Republicans are targeting the Social Security benefits our seniors earned over a lifetime. The consequences would be devastating. Don’t just take my word for it—hear it from former Social Security Commissioner Martin O'Malley. 👇

Trump should listen to the American people, who want real immigration reform—not reckless deportations that even he admits hurt the economy and deny people their constitutional rights of due process.

On #Juneteenth, we commemorate the day freedom finally reached the last enslaved people in Galveston, Texas in 1865. It’s a moment to celebrate progress, reflect on our history, and renew our commitment to equality and justice for all.

As the conflict between Israel and Iran escalates, there are Americans who are trapped and looking to us for help. I joined a bipartisan group of 45 colleagues demanding the Trump Administration provide answers—and a plan to get them home. stanton.house.gov/press-releases…

Trump is shutting down the suicide hotline for LGBTQ youth. These are kids who are already at higher risk—and over a million have reached out when they had nowhere else to turn. The hotline connects them with trained professionals many states don’t offer. This is just wrong.

Kicking out confident, capable, and well-trained service members for purely political reasons is self-defeating. It weakens our military and undermines readiness. I’m backing the Fit to Serve Act to make sure we judge service members by their fitness, not politics.

House Republicans passed the biggest health care cut in U.S. history. Senate Republicans’ response? Cut Medicaid even FURTHER. It’s cruel, it’s out of touch, and the American people won’t stand for it. More from KJZZ Phoenix ⬇️

Arizona’s public lands are unmatched—deserts, forests, mountains, canyons. They belong to all of us. But Republicans want to sell them off to private buyers to fund tax breaks for Trump’s billionaire buddies. We can’t let that happen. newsweek.com/map-shows-wher…

For years, solo electric vehicle drivers in Arizona have been able to use the HOV lane—easing congestion & incentivizing low-emission vehicles. But this part of the federal code is due to expire in October. My message to House leadership: don't needlessly inconvenience
