Hamadeh on 2020 Maricopa Hack

Representative Abe Hamadeh (R-AZ) shared on social media that a recent revelation about a 2020 hack of the Maricopa County voter database proves the election was not secure, and that anyone who still believes that it was... READ MORE

Senator Mark Kelly: Trump says ICE is going after criminals, but in reality he’s locking up people like the spouses and family members of military servicemembers. His priorities are completely backward. These are the loved ones of people risking their lives for our freedoms. I know some of them personally and fought for their releases. Annie Ramos was detained just days after her wedding to a US soldier. Maria Pelaez, a grandmother whose son is a Marine, was detained while caring for her grandson on MCAS Yuma base. Arresting them doesn’t make our country safer. It’s just more cruelty from this Administration.

Senator Ruben Gallego: I grew up poor. Without free meals at school, I would never have succeeded in the classroom. Under the GOP, the rich get richer and kids go hungry.

Representative Andy Biggs: Lots of excitement is in the air as another school year comes upon us. Thank you to everyone working to instill good character lessons in our young people. They will remember these lessons for life.

Representative Juan Ciscomani: Casa Grande Fantastic to tour Frito-Lay and meet with the hardworking #AZ06 employees who are already feeling the benefits of No Tax on Overtime. When we fight for policies that reward hard work, the results are real. Proud to see these wins making a difference for Arizona families — and there’s more work to do. I’m just getting started.

Representative David Schweikert: Our national debt just hit $39.77 trillion. It grew by nearly $3 trillion in one year. More than $8 billion every day, $337 million every hour and $93,632 every second. We are in real trouble.

Representative Abe Hamadeh: Thank you to Colonel Nicholas R. Ihde, Commander of the 56th Fighter Wing at Luke Air Force Base, for stopping by the office to meet with Congressman Hamadeh to discuss support for Luke AFB, F-35 pilot training, and military readiness priorities. We greatly appreciate the work you're doing leading Arizona’s premier fighter training base.

Representative Greg Stanton: At my town hall in Mesa, I heard about the challenges families are up against — soaring energy costs, grocery bills that keep climbing, & a president more interested in enriching himself than lowering your costs. I'm fighting for real relief & real accountability for Arizonans.

Representative Yassamin Ansari: Stephen Miller architected the entirety of Trump’s racist and fascist mass deportation agenda, and he’s the one pushing relentlessly to end birthright citizenship - which is illegal. He needs to be investigated and prosecuted for the crimes he’s actively committing.

Representative Adelita Grijalva: Farmworkers do the backbreaking work of keeping America fed. Despite being indispensable to our economy, they're being targeted by this administration’s cruel immigration raids. This approach is inhumane and undermines our nation's food supply.
