Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 04/04/2026Pay attention, Arizona. Especially those of you in/near Mohave County. Weigh in. #airpollution #methanegas azdeq.gov/public-notic... 032
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 23/03/2026Coming soon to an airport near you… #tsashitshow 021
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 20/03/2026Happening today at ASU. Our very uncomfortably hot Phoenix outing is highlighted in Andrew’s new book. The irony also isn’t lost that it’s going to be 105 degrees there. Bird on Fire indeed… 251
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 12/03/2026As Phoenix, AZ is set to see 100+ temps in early MARCH, while gearing up for yet another massive APS rate hike (which shareholders are certainly celebrating) I want y’all to be aware of how much the utility monopoly CEO $$$ makes - never worried about how he’s paying HIS bill. #StopTheAPSGreed 031
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 10/02/2026Turning Point is also pushing Vanderwey in their slate. 011
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 18/09/202510PM in Phoenix, Arizona. I. AM. SO. SICK. OF. BEING. HOT. 240
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 05/09/2025Think of #Arizona PUBLIC Service (@apsfyi.bsky.social) as the evil, villain octopus. Tentacles everywhere all across the state, buying off everyone in their path & constantly raising our rates to enrich their shareholders. Life-saving utilities should NOT be profit-driven. #StopTheAPSGreed 041
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 16/08/2025The utility-captured Arizona Corporation Commission voted yesterday to move forward with repealing our renewable energy standards. Here’s what I said to the Commission. 0124
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 07/08/2025I just pitched in another $100 to help save some lives. Please chip in what you can — literally every $ will help & they are boots on the ground trying to help keep people alive. 020
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 07/08/2025From my friends at UnshelteredPHX. And if I hear one more person say “this summer hasn’t been that bad” as you travel from air conditioned space to space, my head will explode! Go spend a few hrs. outside tomorrow & tell me how you feel. Venmo & cashapp - radicalcommunitycare. #HeatKills 120
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 29/07/2025Thankfully, I’m not the only person who believes in the importance of meeting people where they’re at with kindness & they haven’t stopped helping folks on the street. Follow unshelteredphx on IG. 010
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 29/07/2025🧵 on #HeatKills & what y’all can do to help save some lives given that our city/county/state continue to miserably fail. Important part out front - please match my $50 donation (or what you can afford) for 💧 & 🧊 to my (younger) other me’s. See 1st pic 👇🏼 on how/where to send $. 521
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 29/07/2025That’s an incredibly privileged thing to say when you’re moving from one air conditioned space to the next (and maybe a pool). Updated death count drops tomorrow — which will be a big undercount. #HeatKills 000
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 20/07/2025For all you #law & #history nerds. I love thrift stores because it’s a treasure hunt. Last night while looking for tiny frames, I found these 2 framed pieces. I believe they were owned by famous lawyer John P. Frank & probably hung in his office. Wild. www.nytimes.com/2002/09/10/u... 020
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 20/07/2025I’ve been connecting dots on extreme heat & climate in AZ for many years. And thankfully some of my questions, digging, research & prodding have led to positive change. Our city/county/state certainly hasn’t been proactive enough though. #HeatKills 071
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 14/07/2025Please tune in to ABC15 at 6pm tonight for an important deep dive into how #HeatKills and how these deaths are undercounted & unreported (I personally believe by design). 010
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Can someone at @maricopahealth.bsky.social explain why there isn’t a real dashboard with more details this year & why you’ve removed all the previous year’s weekly PDF reports (better IMO) from your website? Are they archived & publicly accessible somewhere? Why less transparency? #HeatKills 010
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 18/06/2025Here to help push for high visibility crosswalks & stop bars for vehicles on our #DangerousByDesign City of #Phoenix streets. Nicole Rodriguez submitted a citizens petition to push & it got punted here. Tune in live: www.youtube.com/live/B7SA4VL... 041
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 06/06/2025Though this is from the 2023 annual MEO report, it’s likely the “1st” annual heat death was confirmed some time ago, though just made public. The lede IMHO should have been the large number of preliminary heat deaths we already had prior to June 1 with relatively “mild” weather. #HeatKills 010
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 05/06/2025So for the past few years (since heat deaths have gotten so much press) Maricopa County has been slow rolling release of data. (Even tho people usually start dying in April. Tho this yr. I’m guessing we may even see March.) We’re now in killer season - triple digits. #HeatKills 131
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 29/05/2025I still give majority of the blame to our inept & weak District 4 Councilwoman Laura Pastor though who could’ve easily stood with community & pushed for removal. She doesn’t deserve to stay in politics IMO. 000
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 24/05/20251st off, the ASU study was done in 2024, not 2020. It was done by a grad student who IS an engineer, & this study was overseen by additional highly skilled & qualified traffic engineers - including Simon Ramos who works for PHX Streets (& filed the ethics complaint against her). 110
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 24/05/2025Let’s connect some more dots here as well as correct the public record with regard to these false statements made by Councilwoman Laura Pastor: 110
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 24/05/2025I’m hearing my Councilwoman Laura Pastor is having her hired friends call around asking about the recall packet I pulled. Speaking of hired friends, though this ethics complaint was closed (because PHX doesn’t give a 💩 about ethics) this sure says a lot about how she behaves. 141
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 22/05/2025If we can rally almost 5k signatures, 50+ businesses, council chambers full of support, virtual callers in support & NOT ONE public comment in opposition, please tell me how Laura Pastor couldn’t whip FOUR votes in 12 fucking years?!? Someone sucks at public service. #PHXsucks 132
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 21/05/2025Happy to see all these red shirts here to support our petition to end the dangerous rush hour reverse lanes on the 7’s! 050
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 13/05/2025Plenty to unpack here on worker protections. Weirdly, plenty of other states have passed their own standards. What data is “required” & what did the last 2 years of data say? How many people need to die before someone actually takes action at the state level? This is asinine. 120
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 13/05/2025And before I move on to workers, let’s turn this into our #Arizona #HeatKills PSA. “Stay cool” is on par for most awful tag line as “PHX is hot.” Thousands of people dying preventable deaths isn’t funny. 110
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 13/05/2025She goes on to say we have the best disconnect rules in the country, which is just a flat out lie for SO MANY REASONS which I’ll briefly address & our disconnect rules should be both statewide + temp-based like MANY OTHER STATES HAVE! 131
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 13/05/2025And back to the Resilience Director who admits people are facing extreme temps almost half the year when asked about temp-based disconnect rules. She says there are “trade-offs.” Yeah there sure are… Like literally baking to death. 110
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 13/05/2025And then, we can’t overlook this 💎 of wisdom from our Democratic Governor. Especially knowing there have been multiple APS settlements with families who’ve lost loved ones from shut offs. APS CARES ABOUT US - haven’t you heard?!? Earnings call transcripts say otherwise btw… 120
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 13/05/2025She had her Resilience Director double down on the “thanks” messaging to APS too. (And is it 2025 or 2026?) Also, why is the state relying on a monopoly utility to provide such a critical service for Arizonans? That doesn’t seem right. 140
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 13/05/2025Did Governor Hobbs address this preventable death at her extreme heat press conference? Nope. She sure didn’t. But she did give APS props for giving her a million 💵 to pay for 211. Wasn’t that “nice” of them?! 161
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 07/05/2025At Phoenix formal council meeting with friend, former neighbor & fellow safe streets advocate Nicole to push for common sense changes that should’ve happened decades ago. Tune in live here: www.youtube.com/live/AFd2u4A... 032
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 04/05/2025Maybe if I were a man advocate more people would listen. 🤷 050
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 04/05/2025Your #Phoenix Saturday reminder to sign & share the #EndReverseLanes petition to end the insane + dangerous 7th St. & 7th Ave. rush hour lanes. www.endreverselanes.com 021
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 02/05/2025And my spidey senses were spot on. @apsfyi.bsky.social did NOT speak to or lay eyes on 82 yr. old Kate Korman prior to disconnecting her power on May 13, 2024 in DEADLY heat. They are a Darth Vader, greedy monopoly utility. #HeatKills 151
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 26/04/2025We’ve surpassed 4k signatures on our #EndReverseLanes on the 7’s petition! Have a biz on the 7’s & want to be added to the site? Get in touch! Please sign + share & get these dangerous rush hour insane lanes gone already. #Phoenix #DangerousByDesign www.endreverselanes.com 051
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 25/04/2025I’ve been prodding our elected Arizona Corporation Commissioners about the recently discovered APS shut off death that happened last summer. If there was any question as to whether they’re completely captured by the utilities they’re supposed to regulate, here ya go. Just disgusting. #HeatKills 182
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 23/04/2025Here’s what I said to the Arizona Corporation Commission back in 2019 at the utility disconnect rules workshop. APS is our Darth Vader utility. #RIPKateKorman #RIPStephaniePullman #HeatKills 0110
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 20/04/2025Hey #Phoenix! If you believe it’s time for @cityofphoenixaz.bsky.social, @mayorgallego.bsky.social & City Council to end the dangerous rush hour reverse lanes on 7th St. & 7th Ave., please sign & share the petition - www.endreverselanes.com 151
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 20/04/2025The rush hour reverse lanes on the 7’s are already incredibly dangerous, but nobody can even read what times you can’t turn! @cityofphoenixaz.bsky.social streets are #DangerousByDesign. Please sign & share the petition to end them: www.endreverselanes.com 072
Stacey Champion @champpr.bsky.social · 11/04/2025Welcome to Phoenix, Arizona on April 10th. Shitty air quality + pushing 100 degrees. If the heat doesn’t kill you, the pollution probably will. (And both will shorten your life, so think twice about moving here.) 040
