Hamadeh Questions Potential FDA Ruling

Representative Abe Hamadeh (R-AZ) is writing to Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Dr. Martin Makary over potential restrictions to popular thyroid medications.

For additional context, the FDA announced earlier in August that they would potentially "take action against marketed unapproved animal-derived thyroid (ADT) products (sometimes described as desiccated thyroid extract [DTE] products)," as Medscape described.

State Senator Jake Hoffman: Congress & state legislatures must SECURE OUR ELECTIONS! Only legal CITIZENS vote Proof of citizenship required Eliminate the machines Get rid of the fraud-prone no excuse mail-in ballots — even DEMOCRAT JIMMY CARTER knew this! Start by passing the SAVE Act now!

State Representative Alexander Kolodin: AZ ELECTION INTEGRITY ALERT Radical leftist Adrian Fontes is exploiting a cyberattack — using it as a pretext to rig future elections in Democrats' favor. He's pushing a full system takeover. - MILLIONS for a new Election Management System - MILLIONS for a new Voter Registration System Fontes is co-developing this new Voter Registration System with Democrat Secretaries of State from across the country, allegedly with Marc Elias' involvement The net effect will be to force all of Arizona's smaller counties into this new system - MILLIONS for a new Election Night Reporting System This is a FULL SYSTEM TAKEOVER. Fontes knows I'm going to beat him in November of 2026, so he's trying to entangle us so deeply in their game plan now that there's no turning back. Tell your Arizona legislators — DO NOT GIVE ADRIAN FONTES ONE PENNY IN 2026. Tell Congress — PROHIBIT ANY FEDERAL DOLLARS FROM BEING GIVEN TO FONTES. We cannot let a far-Left extremist like Adrian Fontes destroy our elections even more.

State Representative Rachel Keshel: I will unapologetically continue to fight right alongside President Trump to ensure our elections are trustworthy again!!!

State Representative Nick Kupper: If you’re not mature by 40 then there isn’t much hope for you ever maturing.

State Representative John Gillette: Arizona runs Arizona’s elections. We asked end federal mail in ballots @realDonaldTrump. The real fight has been stopping Democrats from loosening our guard rails around mail-in voting. This session they pushed bills to make ballot harvesting easier, weaken oversight, and handcuff observers. We blocked them. This is not a battle you want. See below! HB2473 (Dem-sponsored): Repeals limits on third-party ballot collection—i.e., opens the door to mass harvesting. HB2475 (Dem-sponsored): Creates a new “intimidation” offense around returning ballots—so broad it chills lawful observation of drop-offs HB2096 (Dem-sponsored): Expands the Permanent Early Voting List framework—more automatic mailing, more ballots in circulation, more chain-of-custody risk. Democrats want universal mail in and cellular phone voting. Universal -Scam and Cheat. Source http://azleg.gov
