Coffee tastes better when it isn’t made by a union-busting corporation.
Starbucks, it’s past time to negotiate a fair contract, especially when your CEO makes 6,666 times what the median worker earns. Wild.

Juan Ciscomani somehow always finds time to talk, but never to the people he represents. That's why I'm challenging him to join me at my Tucson town hall this Friday.
Hundreds of thousands of Arizonans are about to see their health care premiums skyrocket, so I'm headed to Tucson to hear from folks about what that would mean for them and how we can fight to keep care affordable. Join me on Friday at 3:15 PM. RSVP link below.

There is a real housing crisis in this country. At CAVCO, workers can build a high quality and affordable home in just eight days. I spent today touring their facility here in Arizona and talking about how we can make affordable housing a reality for every Arizonan.
If you’ve flown on a plane, there’s a good chance your seatbelt was made right here in Arizona. I spent some time today touring the facility and talking with the workers who keep all of us safe in the air. They are the backbone of our economy, and I’m grateful for the work they do every day.
Le entregué el libro de una de las víctimas de Epstein a Mike Johnson. Si de verdad lo lee, tal vez por fin publicará los archivos de Epstein y dejará de proteger a los poderosos que la abusaron.
Ya es hora de que se haga justicia para los cientos de víctimas, incluyendo las 15 víctimas Latinas.
I dropped off Virginia Giuffre’s memoir for Speaker Johnson. If he actually reads it, maybe he’ll finally release the Epstein Files and stop covering for the powerful men who abused her.
Justice for Virginia and the hundreds of other victims is long overdue.
To every veteran who’s answered the call — thank you. Our country is stronger because of your courage and sacrifice.
Today and every day, we honor you and your families for all you’ve given to this nation.
I’ve looked hardworking Arizona parents in the eyes and promised I’d fight to help them keep their health insurance.
I sure as hell won’t give up that fight for a show vote.
I had a great time chatting with our DC interns this morning. They asked thoughtful questions about public service, leadership, and what it’s really like to work in Congress. I always leave these conversations inspired by their curiosity and commitment to making a difference.
You can feel it. Working class Latinos are frustrated. Prices keep rising, ICE raids are ramping up, and people who once stayed quiet are beginning to question how they are being treated. The data finally shows what we’ve been hearing in our communities.
If you think tearing hardworking Latino families apart won’t backfire, think again. Our community doesn’t run — we fight back.
Chatted with Jessiah over at Pondering Politics today. We talked election results, government shutdown, and how dems should fight back. Watch the full episode out now!

There has to be a solution from Republicans, or at least assurances I can believe in. Because right now, 24 million Americans are at risk of seeing their healthcare costs double overnight. That’s not something I’m willing to gamble with.
My Constituent Services team is hosting Mobile Office Hours at Yuma City Hall on Thursday, November 6th from 12 pm-3 pm. If you need assistance with the IRS, Social Security, the VA or any other federal agency, please stop by and say hello! RSVP link below:

For Día de Los Muertos, @padilla.senate.gov and I each left a photo of a loved one at the other office’s ofrenda.
Proud to bring a beautiful tradition to the U.S. Senate to remember and honor those who have gone before us.
Today is November 1st. Today, 24 million families woke up to outrageous health care costs. Today, Republicans leave them behind.
It’s absurd that AI companies are letting their chatbots run unchecked, exposing kids and teens to sexual abuse and encouraging self-harm. It must end now.
I’m working across the aisle to pass the GUARD Act to hold Big Tech accountable and protect our kids.
You can now preview 2026 ACA insurance premiums on healthcare.gov.
A family of four in Maricopa County paid $514 a month for their ACA plan in 2025. Next year, that same plan will cost $2,435. That kind of increase will be devastating for thousands of Arizona families.
I sat down with Steve, a husband and father of three from Gilbert, Arizona. He already pays $3,400 each month for health insurance through the ACA to make sure his family can get the care they need.
Families like Steve’s shouldn’t have to face their health care costs rising even higher.
