We can't afford veterans' pensions, but we can spend a billion dollars a day on an illegal war nobody voted for. As a veteran, I'll never accept that. Grateful to speak about it this morning at the 2026 Center for American Progress IDEAS Conference.
Trump is creating a nearly $2 billion slush fund with YOUR tax dollars to pay off his insurrectionist allies. This is where your money is actually going.
I pushed to stop it. Republicans voted to allow it to happen. Shameful.
Stephen Miller’s mass deportation agenda has gone too far. He’s targeting Dreamers, who know no other home than the US, and letting agents racially profile Latinos.
I’m fighting back.

Ruben Gallego drops some truth about #Trump #IranWar #CAPIdeas conference @americanprogress.bsky.social
Every time two media giants merge, workers eat the cost. Warner Bros. and Paramount want to combine now, and Arizona's 11,600 movie theater jobs are at risk. I wrote to the DOJ today asking them to do their job and actually review this deal before it does damage. coppercourier.com/news/gallego...
So while you’re struggling to pay for groceries and gas, Trump is using his own Department of Justice to pay HIMSELF $1.776 billion?

As a Marine, I've seen the true cost of war. It's always working families who pay. $5 gas. $1,200 in tariffs. A billion dollars a day on Iran. Grateful to speak on this today at Foreign Policy for America.
Arizona’s skilled workforce is built with hard work, discipline, and apprenticeship programs like the one at Boilermakers Local 627.
Got to meet with trainees, tour the weld shop, and even try my hand at welding!
3-5 years is too long. Northern Arizona's tourism economy is tied to the health of our forests. We need to restore what the White Sage and Dragon Bravo fires took, and we need to do it fast.
Dreamers are an essential part of this country. Deporting the people we've invested decades in is a detriment to the United States.
We should not try to deport Arizonans that want to make this country better.
When it comes to this Administration's treatment of dreamers, Stephen Miller is being a racist and a coward.
I'm joining the Senate Judiciary Committee for a Spotlight Forum on protecting Dreamers. Tune in now.

I visited Soldiers Best Friend in Peoria to see firsthand how they’re pairing rescued dogs with veterans living with PTSD.
These service dogs are changing lives, and organizations like this are making a real difference for Arizona veterans and their families.
Spent some time back home in Arizona last week. Nothing beats being on the ground with the people I'm fighting for.
Families across the country are having to choose between keeping the lights on and putting gas in their cars. But sure. "The most energy affordable nation in the world."
Tiffany Hudson is a working single mom in Phoenix. She needs SNAP benefits to feed her son, but Trump is cutting her off in order to give tax cuts to billionaires.
Billionaires first, working American families last.
