From protecting our water to bringing transportation funding home to AZ, I'll keep working to get Phoenix the resources it needs to build for the future.

As Phoenix grows, our infrastructure needs to keep up. That was the focus of my recent meeting with Phoenix Vice Mayor Hodge Washington and the City of Phoenix's Ginger Spencer.

At my latest Coffee with your Congressman, Arizonans brought a little bit of everything. We talked about lowering energy bills, veterinary care, foreign assistance, and the challenges of farming in Arizona. Thank you for taking the time to share what's most important to you.

School should be a place where every kid can learn without fear. I'm fighting to reverse this and pass the Equality Act to enshrine protections for LGBTQ+ Americans nationwide.

Ripping away Title IX protections leaves LGBTQ+ students less safe on campus and puts every student at greater risk of harassment and assault.

Congratulations to #TECOinPhoenix on your grand opening this week! AZ's close partnership with Taiwan helped transform our state into a technology powerhouse. From semiconductors to joint research & engineering, this office is a recognition that our economic partnership is only growing stronger.

What happened to Bernadette is horrific. No one should ever be subjected to this kind of violence — especially while engaging in the democratic process. I spoke to her today to thank her for her extraordinary courage in coming forward. Whoever did this must be held fully accountable.

These three years have been incredibly painful for Jewish communities in Israel and around the world. We must continue to reject the scourge of antisemitism and do the hard work to build lasting peace, security and stability in the region — for Israelis and Palestinians alike. 3/4

Three years ago, Hamas carried out a brutal terrorist attack on Israel, the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust. More than 1,200 Israelis were murdered and 251 were taken hostage. 🧵

Arizona is one of six states where WISeR screens Medicare patients' care requests before they're approved. A watchdog group sued for the records and found improper denials, delays leading to patient harm, and private contractors being paid more the more care they deny.

Rep. Greg Stanton @repgregstanton.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
AI shouldn't decide whether you get the care your doctor ordered. But under the Trump administration's WISeR initiative, that's exactly what's happening. AZ physicians report spending hours on the phone overturning wrongful denials while patients are stuck waiting for treatment. 🧵

Advanced manufacturing is more than a factory or a fab — it's the workers, the suppliers, and the companies that handle what's made along the way. Great to help open Triumvirate's new treatment facility to help put the byproducts of AZ's manufacturing boom to use instead of in a landfill.

Ten students at Tempe Prep earned Congressional Awards this year. They put in a combined 2,600+ hours of community service — tutoring their peers, coaching youth sports, volunteering at local food banks & more. It was a privilege to present them their medals & congratulate them on this achievement.

This week I helped cut the ribbon on Northrop Grumman's new aerospace facility in Arizona. Their spacecraft that resupplies the International Space Station is assembled right here in the East Valley — its last run in April carried over 11,000 pounds of cargo into orbit.

Three Members of Congress walked into the Oval Office in 1974 to tell Nixon he was finished. Two were AZ Republicans: Barry Goldwater & John Rhodes. The President resigned the next day. 52 years later, none of AZ's Republican representatives have the courage to stand up to Trump's corruption.

I'm relieved that every passenger aboard FlyDubai 1073 is safe tonight, and I'm praying for the pilot who was seriously wounded in the attack. While we're still learning details, it appears this was a deliberate act of terror to bring down a plane full of civilians on their way to Israel.

The Supreme Court got this right. No Arizonan should have to wonder whether their ballot will make it through the mail because of a politically motivated rule change 50 days before an election. Voting by mail is safe, secure, and how millions of people make their voices heard.

America just recorded its hottest summer ever, beating the Dust Bowl record from 1936. Despite that, the U.S. still doesn't classify extreme heat as a natural disaster. Extreme heat is deadly, and communities need real relief.
