Gallego's Gone Crazy?

Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) continues to take heat over his endorsement of Graham Platner, who is running for Senator in Maine.

Platner has faced controversy for... READ MORE

Senator Mark Kelly: I’m am a father to two daughters, a proud grandfather to a granddaughter, and married to a woman who defines strength. Women’s History Month is about recognizing the progress of previous generations. It’s our job to keep that progress moving. Our daughters and granddaughters should have more rights and more opportunity than their grandmothers did, not less.

Senator Ruben Gallego: We are the most powerful country in the world. If we don't want to go to war, we won't go to war.

Representative Andy Biggs: Congratulations to the Arizona Wildcats men's basketball team for winning the Big 12 regular season title! Job well done. Time to go dancing.

Representative Eli Crane: Some members of Congress support the operation in Iran. Some oppose it. Regardless, there is no excuse for democrats to continue their politically motivated shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security. We have to be operating at full capacity to keep Americans safe.

Representative Juan Ciscomani: Big win for Arizona and for American energy security. My Critical Mineral Consistency Act just PASSED the House — aligning federal definitions to streamline permitting and accelerate domestic mining. That means more Arizona copper, stronger supply chains, and fewer critical materials coming from other nations.

Representative David Schweikert: Tribal governments run schools, roads, and public safety like any state or county, but the tax code still treats them like an afterthought. H.R. 7705 with @RepGwenMoore lets tribes use the same bond, housing, and investment tools to build real growth in Indian Country.

Representative Abe Hamadeh: While we (rightly) focus on national security, we cannot forget election integrity. @SenateGOP must recognize that the SAVE America Act is OVERWHELMINGLY popular with the American people, & move this critical legislation forward as soon as possible. Our elections depend on it.

Representative Greg Stanton: I am aware of reports that a man passed away while in the custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Florence. My thoughts are with the family, and we have reached out to them to offer our condolences and support. They deserve answers, and I will do everything in my power to get them.

Representative Yassamin Ansari: This is a complete failure of leadership. Donald Trump is abandoning American civilians after starting a reckless, illegal war with no plan. Make no mistake — this is a direct result of DOGE gutting the State Department. Disgraceful.

Representative Adelita Grijalva: Women’s History is American History. #WomensHistoryMonth
