No woman or person I have ever known has appreciated the right to vote quite like Jerry Emmett. She was born at a time when being a woman meant being silenced. She was raised at a time when women had to fight to be heard and worked 10…
I am standing here today to recognize my southern Arizona community. While in Tucson for the work period, I saw goodness in action. The city of Tucson, the county, Catholic Community Services, and other local churches and nonprofits came…
Kerry from Tucson, Arizona, has a daughter in middle school who has type 1 diabetes. The countless doctor visits, the fights with insurers and providers and doctors and back again, and the ache of watching her child struggle to be a normal…
The Department of Defense published a report revealing the dire impacts of the President's unlawful emergency declaration. It threatens to steal nearly $150 million of urgently needed Arizona military construction funds critical to the…
I am here to represent the residents of Arizona's Second Congressional District. I work for them. Our constituents sent us here to practice good government and to fight for their values and interests, so I am upset with the President's…

The President has set a dangerous precedent by crying wolf in the name of national emergency. I represent parts of the southern Arizona border. My community knows the border. We know the further away from the border you live, the more…
Election cybersecurity in general is a problem where we can make a lot of progress.
