Many Arizona families can’t afford child care. And even when they can, they can’t find a spot. Join me and child care leaders from across Arizona on Monday, Oct. 19 for a town hall on making child care affordable and easier to find. RSVP at the link below. forms.cloud.microsoft/g/cQAJf8FdRZ

As union density has gone down, wages have stalled. Corporations are making record profits while workers are taking home a smaller slice of the economy than ever before. Here’s one way we can rebuild union power and change the direction of the working class.

In case you missed it, I put out a plan to save the middle class and restore the American dream.

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 12/10/2026

One of the best parts of this job is meeting the next generation of Arizona leaders. I was honored to speak with students in the Latino Leaders Program at Chandler City Hall. I may be Arizona’s first Latino Senator, but if these kids have anything to do with it, I won’t be the last.

Anyone who works hard enough, saves enough, and plays by the rules should be able to build wealth for their family, buy a car, a house, or a big-ass truck. The American dream. But right now, hard work isn't cutting it. And as elected officials, it’s our job to change that.

On her way out the door, Kristi Noem used taxpayer dollars to buy five planes from a donor. Just the latest example of blatant government corruption under President Trump.

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 30/09/2026

Once rogue AI agents start speaking in their own language, they won't care whether you're America or China. We're all at risk. Congress needs to take that threat seriously.

64813 48

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 30/09/2026

There is no kill switch. No failsafe protections. I asked AI safety experts what happens if things go really bad, really fast. Their answer should terrify us all.

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 29/09/2026

Americans everywhere are struggling to buy a home. And without the ability to buy a home, many of them can't build wealth. At today's American Growth Summit, I laid out the changes we need in Washington to give everyone a fair shot at the American dream.

Honored to receive the Marine Corps seal from Brigadier General Shannon M. Brown, who served in Iraq and in some of the hardest battles with me. It's tradition for each service branch to present a seal to members of Congress. As a Marine, this one is special. Semper Fi.

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 25/09/2026

Sydney and I had a great time at the Action for Cancer Awareness Awards Luncheon this week. The @preventcancer.org Foundation's bipartisan Congressional Families Program is about getting people the resources they need to catch cancer early, when it's still treatable. We're proud to be a part of it.

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 23/09/2026

What's Congress doing on AI right now? Nothing. Everyone's focused on the next election while this technology moves faster than any of us can predict. I’m pushing to get everyone at the table—experts, skeptics, regulators, and government—to rein in this technology. Not later, now.

5184 18

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 23/09/2026

Today at @concordiasummit.bsky.social, I made the case: AI is moving quickly. Congress needs to move with it to protect America, the world, and humanity.

5202 20

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 17/09/2026

Great to welcome Black leaders to Washington for Congressional Black Caucus week. When our Black communities are strong, Arizona is strong—and our entire country is stronger when we move forward together.

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 17/09/2026

Corporations are mining your data to squeeze more money out of you. It’s called surveillance pricing, and I’m working to ban it.

13714 37

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 15/09/2026

The Supreme Court just rejected the president’s attempt to restrict mail-in voting. 80% of Arizonans—Republicans, Democrats, and Independents—vote by mail, and Trump can’t change that.

48014 80

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 15/09/2026

We don’t need to wait on the president to regulate AI. This is why we have different branches of government. Congress needs to bring experts to the table, work across the aisle, and move quickly on guardrails that protect America, the world, and humanity.

87017 70

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 15/09/2026

AI is advancing faster than our ability to understand its risks. When our national security is on the line, waiting to act isn’t an option.

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 13/09/2026

This administration says their tariffs on Canada will bring back American manufacturing. They won't. Smart industrial policy—like the CHIPS Act—and real cooperation with Canada are what actually build a stronger North American economy that can compete with China.

5468 46

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 13/09/2026

AI is unlike any technology we've seen before. Once it becomes fully dangerous, it won't care whether you're Chinese or American. We can't afford to wait three years to act, we have to move now to regulate it.

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 13/09/2026

I spend a lot of time at Section 60 in Arlington, visiting friends I lost in Iraq. Now Trump wants an ugly arch within view of that sacred ground. This isn't about liking the guy. It's January 6th. It's the DOJ. It's putting his name on the Kennedy Center. None of it earns a monument.

16725 67

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 08/09/2026

I grew up poor, but I was lucky enough to get a good education, make it to Harvard, and become a U.S. Senator. Every kid deserves that same fair shot. That’s what I'm fighting for: a public school system that works no matter who you are or where you’re born. Let's get to work.

14112 41

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 02/09/2026

A whistleblower from the U.S. Postal Service has confirmed what we feared: Trump's mail-ballot verification system is so broken it could lose or reject ballots ahead of the midterms. So, I'm demanding USPS testify before the Senate. If you try to impede Arizonans from voting, you have answer to us.

168231 82

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 01/09/2026

Canada fought beside the U.S. in both World Wars, the Korean War, and Afghanistan. Their National War Memorial stands as a reminder of what that cost. You don't walk away from an alliance like this. I'll keep fighting to protect it.

1831251 312

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 01/09/2026

As Trump plunges us into a reckless trade war with Canada, I met with Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of International Trade Yasir Naqvi today in Ottawa.

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 31/08/2026

The best part of my job is hearing directly from you, and this past Friday in Nogales was a great reminder of that. Thanks to everyone who came out to my town hall. I'll keep showing up for Arizona.

12225 22

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 31/08/2026

For 70 years, Paul Bond Boots has called Nogales home. Supporting businesses like this means supporting local jobs, local families, and the entire community.

1263 26

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 26/08/2026

The most important part of my job is hearing directly from you. That's why I'll be in Nogales for a town hall this Friday to discuss immigration, delays in DACA renewals, trade-related challenges and inflation, and pathways to greater economic mobility in Santa Cruz County. I hope you'll join me.

110 years of the most beautiful landscapes in the world. Happy birthday National Park Service! (P.S. Thanks to my Veterans in Parks Act, veterans and Gold Star families can visit any national park for free, so get exploring!)

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 25/08/2026

Trump just moved to gut Head Start, and Arizona families will feel it along with families across the country. For an administration that calls itself "pro-family," this is about as anti-family as it gets. We need to do everything in our power to fight back.

13913 39

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 24/08/2026

Latino men feel a deep responsibility to provide for and protect their families. We need to make sure they have the support to be good fathers, husbands, partners, business owners, and community leaders—while also valuing and empowering the Latinas in our lives.

7328 32

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 23/08/2026

As Trump moves to gut Head Start—a program thousands of Arizona's working families rely on—I met with parents and providers to hear what's happening on the ground. Head Start has given kids a fair shot since 1965. I’m fighting to make sure it’s still here for the next generation.

25516 55

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 20/08/2026

My commitment: make sure no part of Arizona is forgotten.

7246 24

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 18/08/2026

Great to meet with students and faculty at Eastern Arizona College as they kick off the semester. We talked about public service, life in the Senate, and how to build opportunity right here in rural Arizona.

6233 23

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 17/08/2026

Stopped by the Safford Fire Department to thank some of our firefighters. As extreme heat and dry conditions increase the risk of wildfire, I’m working to ensure our firefighters have the resources they need to keep Arizonans safe.

2364 36

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 15/08/2026

Because of Trump's cuts to Medicaid, rural healthcare centers in places like Graham County are at risk of closing. Republicans are making people sicker and poorer to give tax cuts to the rich.

75516 55

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 14/08/2026

The Navajo Code Talkers helped this country secure victory in WWII. We owe them a debt that can never be repaid. Sempre Fi, Marines.

15610 56

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 04/08/2026

Social media is poisoning our kids’ developing minds. When unsupervised online, they can be exposed to explicit material, recruited by drug or sex traffickers, or cyber bullied. Meanwhile, Big Tech is profiting off of that very screen time. It’s time we set a federal policy to protect our children.

5265 26

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 31/07/2026

Half of American parents are going into debt just to send their kids back to school. That's not normal. That's a cost of living crisis. I'm fighting every day to lower costs for Arizona families so back to school doesn't mean back to debt.

5369 36

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 30/07/2026

There’s no national coalition, no vibrant democracy, without Latinos. When they try to make us feel hopeless or drive us into the shadows, we fight back. We organize, we register, and we bring our people to the polling booth. ¡Muchas gracias, @weareunidosus.bsky.social! ¡Seguimos adelante!

68828 88

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 28/07/2026

Trump is trying to restrict vote-by-mail, but he doesn't call the shots. Arizonans — Democrats, Republicans, and Independents — have decided they want to vote-by-mail, so we're going to continue to vote-by-mail.

15111 51

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 27/07/2026

Kids are on these apps for hours and it's showing. Grades slipping, confidence shot. These platforms mine kids for data and don't care what it costs their mental health. My bill says if you're under 16, you need your parent's permission to create an account. We have to protect our kids.

12367 36

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 25/07/2026

I grew up working construction sites. Yesterday I worked alongside @habitatcaz.bsky.social, the #1 Habitat affiliate out of 1,000 for families served. Arizona's growing fast but construction hasn't kept up. My ROAD to Housing Act will boost supply and lower costs for families buying a home.

5347 34

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 24/07/2026

There are some good things in this bill. But some of that good is paid for by robbing one veteran to pay another. We don't have to choose between veterans. Fund it right.

5356 35

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 24/07/2026

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo’s sons never got to say goodbye to their father. It’s high time the Department of Homeland Security reigns in ICE’s reckless and cavalier behavior before they tear more families apart.

63812 38

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 23/07/2026

When we invest in men's health, we build stronger families and stronger communities.

68144 68

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 16/07/2026

Navy Federal Credit Union already agreed to pay back $80 million in illegal overdraft fees to veterans and service members. Then Russell Vought tore up the order and killed the deal. He says the order was unlawful. What's actually unlawful is stiffing our troops out of the $80 million they're owed.

109334 93

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 15/07/2026

Standing up for our dignity, demanding economic fairness, and protecting our families is not in opposition of America, it is the most American thing we could be doing. @naleoofficial.bsky.social

3418 41

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 15/07/2026

Once again, this administration has made Latinos feel like we aren't part of this country when that couldn't be further from the truth. Joan Sebastian Guerrero and Lorenzo Salgado Araujo were killed just for fighting for their families and for the American Dream @naleoofficial.bsky.social
