Teachers and first responders shouldn’t need a second or third job just to afford a home. I’m backing legislation to eliminate upfront home purchase costs and the monthly mortgage insurance premiums for them, so they can afford to live in the communities they serve.
I’m in Tucson to honor the life of my friend and colleague, Congressman Raúl Grijalva. He spent his life as a voice for equality and was a role model to so many, including myself. Rest in peace Chairman, you will be deeply missed.
I warned Secretary Turner that cutbacks to fair housing initiatives would open the door to more discrimination. This court decision is a step in the right direction. I’ll keep fighting to make housing more affordable for all Arizonans. wrenews.com/court-blocks...
Equal work. Equal pay. It seems simple. But women still make less than men in Arizona and across the country. Today on Equal Pay Day, I'm proud to support the Paycheck Fairness Act to end wage discrimination and close the gender pay gap.
The Trump administration wants to eliminate FEMA, which provides relief to Americans after disaster strikes. In Arizona, wildfire season is around the corner. We can’t afford to play games with our safety.
Elon Musk is trying to shut down the Yuma Rural Development Office. This office helps rural Arizonans access essential programs like affordable housing and infrastructure funding. I’m urging the USDA to keep it open. Rural Arizona isn’t for sale.
Trump and Musk are trying to cut 80,000 jobs from VA—doctors, nurses, counselors, and caseworkers who’ve dedicated their lives to serving our veterans. Why? So billionaires like them can pay less taxes.
Transitional housing programs like the one I just toured help our service members successfully transition to civilian life. But they’re under threat by DOGE. I won’t let Elon Musk, a man who has zero idea what it means to serve, gut funding for our veterans.
Donald Trump just gave the order to dismantle the Department of Education. He wants fewer resources for teachers and fewer opportunities for our kids—just so his billionaire friends can get richer.
On the 22nd anniversary of the Iraq War, we should be honoring those who served—not turning our backs on them. But Trump and Elon Musk are gutting the VA, making it harder for veterans to get the care they earned. It’s shameful. We’re fighting back.
The Nogales-Dennis DeConcini Port of Entry is an economic engine and on the front line in the fight against fentanyl.   Yesterday, I saw firsthand how funding we secured will boost trade, create jobs, and stop fentanyl at the border.    Stronger border. Stronger economy. Safer Arizona.
