Governor Katie Hobbs: No one should have to choose between getting healthcare and putting food on the table. Today, I'm proud to share that we’ve erased over $1 BILLION in medical debt for 670,000+ Arizonans.

AZ Attorney General Kris Mayes: Donald Trump has lost in court after court trying to unilaterally impose tariffs, yet for more than a year he has recklessly pressed ahead—and Arizonans have paid the price.

AZ Secretary of State Adrian Fontes: As someone who grew up outside of Maricopa County, I know how important it is to invest in Greater Arizona. That's why my Office has been traveling around the state to help entrepreneurs and small businesses through the Mobile Business Services Program. Learn more about the program and see when we will be stopping in a city by you at azsos.gov/business

State Representative Alma Hernandez: Mayor Giles is an outstanding choice. As a former law student of his, I can proudly say I’ll be all in for this slate! LFG HOBBS/GILES

State Representative Cheryl Caswell: Sharon and Caron (twins) enjoyed receiving their new American flags from our newest Gadsden teammate Julie, after checking their voter registration status! You can check your status at TPAction.com/ctvvr @TPAction

State Representative John Gillette: Hobbs picks RINO, that sent lobbist to the Capitol to push a bill banning gas stoves in your home. Here are 10 more policy and candidate activities that proves he is not a Republican . Anti free market, authoritarian, green new deal, DEI, agenda that supports Democrat policy. Its difficult to find any Republican policy issues the RINO supports. 1. Endorsement of Kamala Harris: 2.Campaigning Against Donald Trump: 3. Support for Mark Kelly: 4. Support for Katie Hobbs: 5. Republicans for Harris Leadership Role: 6. Speaking at the Democratic National Convention: 7. Praise for the Biden Administration's Border Response: 8. Mesa LGBTQ+ Nondiscrimination Ordinance (men in women's bathrooms) 9. COVID-19 Face Mask Mandate 10. Mesa Climate Action Plan Carbon Neutrality (2050) Initiative

State Representative Teresa Martinez: OMG!!!! @katiehobbs vetos my bill that would have helped rural ratepayers !But then posts that she is helping the rural areas?! This is just propaganda! This is why she won’t debate! She makes these random/misleading claims and doesn’t have to defend them #votebiggs

State Representative Quang Nguyen: The National Firearms Act of 1934 is now UNCONSTITUTIONAL as applied.

Maricopa County Supervisor Mark Stewart: Thank you to @azfamily and @Mickaelatv Castillo for the opportunity to talk about one of the fastest-growing topics in healthcare, PEPTIDES! We had a great conversation about what peptides are, what the recent FDA advisory discussions mean, and why the most important question isn’t just what therapy you’re receiving it’s where it comes from and who is guiding your care. At @GamedayArizona Men’s Health, we believe patients don’t need more social media hype they need more guidance. Every treatment at Gameday starts with a conversation, appropriate lab work, and personalized medical oversight using trusted US pharmacy partners. Innovation in medicine is exciting, but it should always be paired with safety, quality, and physician oversight. That’s what our patients (like Frank) deserve.
