I secured $2 million to revitalize Biehn Colony Park in Guadalupe. Soon, families will have a new space with a renovated baseball field, stands, lighting, and restrooms! Design is anticipated to start in August 2026, with construction anticipated in July 2027.
Arizona, it's a dry heat. But extreme heat is deadly. That's why I introduced an extreme heat legislative package to address the growing impacts of the climate crisis and invest in cooling centers that keep our most vulnerable neighbors safe.
International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples is a reminder that Indigenous communities have endured centuries of injustice while preserving their cultures, traditions, and leadership.
Cheers to a successful summer term and thanks to our lovely #Yassaminterns for all their hard work! Cannot wait to see what great things they accomplish!
This partisan Supreme Court weakened the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and has rolled back voting rights for the communities that need them most.
My first month in Congress, Trump unleashed Elon Musk and DOGE to gut vital federal agencies and programs. The impacts have been devastating. But this is our opportunity to build something better—a government that actually works for everyone.
Women’s health has been underfunded and under-researched for way too long. As the youngest woman in Congress, I’m bringing policy solutions on women’s health to the forefront.
Solving the Colorado River crisis requires all seven states to share the burden. Instead, the Department of the Interior proposed a framework that would devastate Arizona’s water users and economy.
Breaking news: Arizona, California and Nevada will be required to curb their use of the water from the Colorado River by about 20 percent over two years — and could face even larger cuts — according to three officials familiar with negotiations.
Housing is a human right, and a policy I’ve worked on since my days on the Phoenix City Council. My HAVEN Act caps rent for families on housing assistance. Alongside bipartisan wins like the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, we can increase local housing supply and reduce costs. Here’s how:
Donald Trump and his family are stealing from you every day.
Children are being locked up, traumatized, and abused with our taxpayer dollars. Parents with no criminal record are being separated from their families. It’s unconscionable.
I just conducted an oversight visit at the Dilley ICE detention center. After speaking directly with families and children being held inside, here are my first reactions. ⬇️ #ShutDownDilley
Last night, I arrived in Texas for a congressional oversight visit led by @demwomencaucus.bsky.social and @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social. Today, we’re heading to the Dilley ICE detention center—the nation’s only dedicated family immigration detention center.
Members of the Trump family have used the White House to enrich themselves and protect pedophiles. Nobody is above the law-they must be investigated.
Todd Blanche is leading the biggest cover-up in American history. He must be investigated.
On a scale of 1 to 10, Trump's corruption in the federal government has been an 11. It isn't the government serving the people, it's the government serving Donald Trump's donors, Donald Trump's family—and Donald Trump.
Jeffrey Epstein collaborators like Jes Staley are used to lying and getting away with it. But @oversightdemocrats.bsky.social are finally holding them accountable. Remember: it's a crime to lie to Congress. Justice is coming.
Andrew & Tristan Tate have been indicted on horrific charges of rape, human trafficking, & the exploitation of minors. Chair Comer must swiftly open an investigation into the Tate brothers’ coordination & extensive relationships with members of the President’s orbit, including his son, Barron Trump.
Andrew and Tristan Tate. Jeffrey Epstein. They're all disgusting criminals who received preferential treatment from the Trump Administration and need to be held accountable for their crimes.
Republicans know they can't pass their voter suppression bill without creating a trap and tying it to something else. That's why they’ve attached the SAVE Act to a stock trading ban. This is an attempt to trick Americans and ram this awful policy through before they go on summer vacation.
Donald Trump is completely out of his depth. He’s unwell. He dragged us into a reckless, illegal war with Iran that keeps taking the lives of American servicemembers. I said no to this war from day one. It’s still a hell no to funding it. Not one more dollar. Not one more American life.
Last week, the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act finally became law. Donald Trump refused to sign this bipartisan, commonsense bill because he was obsessed with pushing his extreme voter suppression agenda.
The biggest housing bill in 30 years is now law. But what does it actually do?
I had a great time meeting with this year’s PAAIA Iranian-American Civic Leadership Summit cohort. They’re all so smart and committed to public service.
Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are responsible for the deaths of two more Americans. There are no words. We must find the missing servicemember. My heart breaks for the families of all three. A disgusting, illegal war for nothing.
Two US service members were killed and another is missing following Iranian strikes in Jordan, the US military says, marking the first deaths of American troops in the Iran war since March. https://cnn.it/4gGA0Yz
“It’s time to rebuild the American dream, for this generation. A version rooted in dignity, belonging and real power for real people. We need a New American Dream."
From leading the march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge to serving in Congress, John Lewis has always been an inspiration to me. We honor his legacy by continuing the fight—for justice, equality, and the right to vote for every community.
@repgregstanton.bsky.social and I led the Arizona delegation in demanding accountability from Secretary Mullin regarding the ongoing measles outbreak at the Florence Correctional Center. DHS must take action to prevent further transmission.
Americans are fed up with Trump family corruption, and so am I.
