  • Freedom delayed is still freedom worth honoring. Today we remember the enslaved Americans who waited more than two years to learn they were free, and the people who never stopped fighting to make that freedom real. Happy Juneteenth, Arizona!

  • If you've applied to jobs and heard nothing back, you're not crazy. Companies are posting openings they never plan to fill. It wastes your time and warps the data we use to read the economy. I'm pushing the Labor Department and FTC to find out how bad it is.

  • So the guy who wants to be Arizona’s top lawyer just told 18,000 of our neighbors to be ready to be deported. These are nurses and firefighters and people who’ve lived here their whole lives, and he’s looking them in the eye calling them illegals. azmirror.com/2026/06/17/w...

  • Nine Arizona students just earned the Congressional Award Gold Medal. Each one logged more than 400 hours of community service. Fighting fires, feeding families, coaching kids, and looking out for the homeless. I was honored to meet with them during their trip to D.C. this week.

  • The United States should lead through strength, diplomacy, and principle—not by trying to change governments through military force. Our focus should be building strong partnerships across the Western Hemisphere and advancing America’s interests responsibly. @cnas.bsky.social
