Gallego's Bank Ownership Ban
Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) has introduced a bill preventing senior government officials, including the President, Vice President, and their immediate families, from... READ MORE
Senator Mark Kelly: Back to school season is here, and for too many Arizona families, school supplies are unaffordable. I spent some time with teachers in Arizona to pack back-to-school packages. Our kids should be focused on learning, imagining, and growing, not worrying about whether they have the supplies to succeed in school.
Senator Ruben Gallego: This is another case of ICE putting Stephen Miller’s quotas before public safety. We should be going after cartels, traffickers, and criminals—not immigrants with families and jobs who've been doing things the right way.
Representative Andy Biggs: A strong foundation for U.S. manufacturing continues to be laid, which will only serve to benefit hardworking Americans. I'll continue to support policies in Congress that strengthen our economy and help men and women keep their jobs.
Representative Paul Gosar: Well, at least the DNC is finally being honest (for once). Why stop at "defund the police" when you can abolish ICE too? Nothing says "we take border security seriously" quite like eliminating the federal agency responsible for enforcing our immigration laws.
Representative Eli Crane: Grateful to @ENERGY and @SecretaryWright for their commitment to expanding critical mineral extraction. This is good news for Globe, Miami, and efforts to clean up abandoned uranium mines throughout #AZ02:
Representative Juan Ciscomani: Turning #AZ06 priorities into a reality! Great to be in Marana with Mayor Jon Post and town leaders to discuss the $3M in federal funding I have preliminarily secured to improve the I-10 interchange and see the real impact it is set to have. This is a meaningful investment on top of the $70K I secured in 2024 to help keep traffic moving in our growing community!
Representative David Schweikert: In June I said on the House floor we'd cross $40 trillion in debt by the end of this summer work period. We cross it this week. We're borrowing about $93,000 every second.
Representative Abe Hamadeh: Congressman Hamadeh proudly voted YES on President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill. The results are in: tax refunds jumped 17 percent this year, $43 billion more back in the pockets of hardworking Americans, with the average refund up $333. No tax on tips. No tax on overtime. Real relief for middle-class families. Thanks to Congressional Republicans, families are keeping more of what they earn.
Representative Greg Stanton: Before the Inflation Reduction Act, pharmaceutical companies often made lifesaving drugs unaffordable for seniors. Because of that law, out-of-pocket costs are capped at $2,000 a year for Medicare recipients. On the fourth anniversary of its signing, I spoke with Doug, an @activeretirees member, about how much he’s saving each year.
Representative Yassamin Ansari: Education is our MOST important tool for uplifting the next generation of youth leaders. So grateful for our AZ-03 educators, and wishing every student and staff a happy back-to-school!
