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.
Not hearing enough about this. Bravo Governor Hobbs. Amazing work on medical debt forgiveness for Arizonans.

Cmon AZ! Our state has zero excuse to not be a leader in solar
Utah just reached a major clean energy milestone: solar became the state’s largest source of electricity generation for the month of May. ☀️ The energy transition isn’t coming—it’s already happening. www.fox13now.com/news/politic... #Solar #RenewableEnergy #CleanEnergy #SustainableInvesting
How could you ever doubt this? Also, did you know there is a “b” in doubt? Most people don’t know that
I’m skeptical.

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.
Hey Prescott! Our Mobile Business Services team is at the Yavapai College’s Prescott campus today until 3 pm. Individuals and organizations are welcome to stop by and access our services.
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.
The Trump Administration's illegal tariffs have resulted in higher grocery prices, bigger bills for small businesses trying to stay afloat, and chaos in nearly every sector of our economy. Full press release here: www.azag.gov/press-releas...

🎯 make a plan with neighbors, friends, and family to check your voter registration frequently and to vote early.
Winning the midterms isn't just about voting. It's about making sure five other people vote too. The first part is the easier of the two. That's why the second part is so very important.
Gerrymandering lets politicians choose their voters instead of the other way around. Until we end that, it will remain difficult to achieve the things most Americans already agree on.

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.
Their fear of losing, and subsequent punishment for their current crimes, has them pushing every fear button even if they have to event some
CNN: “New poll numbers strikingly bad for Trump… approval rating tanking on just about every major issue… a record number of discontented Americans…”
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!!!
