If I was a young person being told that the best our economic system can ever offer me is working longer and longer hours to live with more and more roommates and eat worse and worse food, I might start getting this crazy idea that we need a new economic system.

Joanna Mendoza is a veteran who served 3 combat tours, came home to work with Vets, grew up in a farmworker family right here in Arizona Ciscomani does whatever trump says and it's hurting families - his constituents that he promised to serve. He doesn't deserve your vote.

#AZ CD-06 JoAnna Mendoza is running for Congress. Her opponent Juan Ciscomani, voted to cut SNAP, the program that helps working families put food on the table. In a district where median income is $64k & cost of living keeps rising, that vote told you exactly whose side he's on. Mendoza gets it.

Arizonans selling their plasma to buy food. Moms stopping breastfeeding because they fear they aren't eating enough to nourish their babies. This is reality for too many across #AZ06 - a direct result of Juan Ciscomani's vote to instead line the pockets of billionaires. We won't forget.

The $30 million AIPAC wasted in Michigan, wasted trying to help Haley Stevens, could have been used to fully fund and deliver 6 million malaria nets to sub-Saharan Africa. Or, it could have fully paid for universal free school breakfasts in Mississippi, America's poorest state.

Civic education happens over coffee, at work, in the grocery line. When you help a neighbor register or explain what's on the ballot, that's democracy being passed along the way it should be — one real conversation at a time. Pass this on, you never know who needs this information Arizona.vote

DACA comment deadline, Voting Rights Act day of action, and door knocks in nine cities. Here is where to plug in.

Republicans in the Legislature tried to trick voters by referring HCR2048 to the ballot. Disguised as protections for military families, this initiative would have undercut and nullified a voter-led initiative. The court rightfully blocked it from the ballot this morning.

Public comment is the stretch of a government meeting where anyone in the room can step up and talk for a couple of minutes. Most people never do it because the sign-up is unclear and nobody explains what to say. Three trainings coming up on exactly that!!!
