This is the final weekend our home serves as a staging location! (check out the video).

Today, we welcomed the Reproductive Freedom Bus with amazing guests like @alexismcgill, the @PodSaveAmerica team, @DanaiGurira and @JeriLRyan. Together, we’re knocking doors in South Phoenix, standing strong for reproductive rights and voter engagement.

Let’s make this last push count—do everything to bring it home. No regrets!

[Governor Katie Hobbs @GovernorHobbs]

Farmworkers contribute far more than their hard labor; through generations of courage, creativity, and community, they have helped shape Arizona’s history and identity. Today, I am proud to proclaim Farmworkers Day in Arizona to honor these contributions, which are woven into the very fabric of our state and foundational to our prosperity, vitality, and spirit.

JUST IN 'Protect the Vote Arizona,' initiative to enshrine voting by mail in AZ Constitution, WILL NOT turn in signatures by Thursday deadline to appear on November ballot, per organizer @stacypearson.

Says the the guy who has cost tax payers $350 million and counting in lawsuits, under your watch hundreds sex crimes went uninvestigated yout were found guilty of criminal contempt and much more, ¡Adios!

[Sheriff Joe Arpaio @RealSheriffJoe]

Democrat US Senator from Arizona Ruben Gallego is currently being blasted in the mainstream news media. Today, the New York Times published an article exposing Senator Gallego for spending considerable campaign funds on personal expenses. Now, the US Department of Justice is investigating his campaign finance activities.

Recently, Senator Gallego blasted me at a speech in Nevada, and I responded calling for a full investigation into Senator Gallego and former Congressman Eric Swalwell. If Gallego is guilty of misconduct, he should resign immediately like Swalwell did.

I am sure Arizona Senate President Warren Petersen will investigate this matter when he becomes Arizona's next attorney general.

JUST IN U.S. Senate Ethics Committee dismisses complaint vs Democratic @SenRubenGallego filed by GOP Rep. Anna Paulina Luna. Letter: https://t.co/cOF4B2t2Dw

[Senator Ruben Gallego @SenRubenGallego]

The dismissal by the Ethics Committee reaffirms what I have said about these accusations from the beginning: they were right-wing conspiracies peddled by far-right activists like Anna Paulina Luna, the White House, and their allies.

I look forward to an apology from Rep. Luna for weaponizing the ethics process while refusing to investigate historic corruption that’s making life harder for families.

In the meantime, I will continue fighting for Arizonans and holding Trump Republicans accountable for high costs and new wars.

The first opinion is in Watson v. RNC, the mail-in ballot case. The court holds that nothing in the federal election-day statutes requires ballots to be received by Election Day in order to be counted.

I want to see you say this with the same energy when you’re sitting in front of Spanish-language media doing interviews in Spanish.
Hypocrite.
You are such a MAGA extremist at your core! Arizonans will see right through you and your lack of leadership. ¡Adios!

[Warren Petersen @votewarren]

Here is some free legal advice to our sitting AG. DACA is found nowhere in the Constitution.

Just another reason why every major law enforcement organization has endorsed me and not Mayes. She isn't even hiding it. She is not for law enforcement or the law.

She is fighting to protect illegals. I will keep our border secure and will work with the federal government to deport everyone who enters this country illegally.

We welcome everyone who comes here legally and abides by the law. But be ready to be deported or prosecuted if you don't.

[Raquel Terán @RaquelTeran]

I love love love this ad!! Thank you @krismayes for meeting the moment every single day in your tenure as AZ Attorney General! We MUST re-elect her!

[Kris Mayes @krismayes]

Being Arizona's AG means one thing to me: fighting for you. Every single day.

We've locked up drug smugglers, held corporations accountable, and taken on anyone who hurts Arizonans. And as the world's biggest tournament begins, I'm proud to be playing for the home team.

[Raquel Terán @RaquelTeran]

YES YES YES YES!

[Andrew Desiderio @AndrewDesiderio]

NEW — Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) says he’ll support these resolutions to block weapons sales to Israel, saying the country’s government is “undermining peace.” He previously opposed these. Guarantees the # of Dem “yes” votes will rise. Was 27 Dems last July.

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

I can't imagine how much courage it took Dolores Huerta, Ana Murgia, Debra Rojas, and others to speak out about the abuse they suffered at the hands of Cesar Chavez. They have carried this trauma and pain for decades, some since they were children. It's awful, and I stand with them and all victims of his abuse.

In the last 24 hours, so many members of our community in Arizona and across the country have been absolutely devastated by this news.

The fight for farmworkers rights has achieved so much and was built on the backs of thousands of men and women, not one person. Their work continues and improves the lives of Americans every day.

[Progress Arizona @Progress_AZ]

We love Arizona's environmental hero, Sandy Bahr of @SierraClub AZ https://t.co/5b6G1QvNMJ

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

This is what using your voice looks like. Some of these students stopped by my Phoenix office and spoke with my staff about what we're doing to rein in ICE and keep our communities safe. There's nothing more patriotic than speaking out about your government and demanding better.

[Brahm Resnik @brahmresnik]

NOW Arizona GOP lawmakers at newser to show support for ICE are shouted down by protesters. It's Opening Day for state Legislature.

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

We are veterans and national security professionals who love this country and swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. That oath lasts a lifetime, and we intend to keep it. No threat, intimidation, or call for violence will deter us from that sacred obligation.

What’s most telling is that the President considers it punishable by death for us to restate the law. Our servicemembers should know that we have their backs as they fulfill their oath to the Constitution and obligation to follow only lawful orders. It is not only the right thing to do, but also our duty.

But this isn’t about any one of us. This isn’t about politics. This is about who we are as Americans. Every American must unite and condemn the President’s calls for our murder and political violence. This is a time for moral clarity.

In these moments, fear is contagious, but so is courage. We will continue to lead and will not be intimidated.

Don’t Give Up the Ship!

An early look at AZ-01 in today’s Score:

[Senator Ruben Gallego @SenRubenGallego]

Trump’s sitting on $5 billion that could feed families right now. Instead, he’s pretending his hands are tied while Republican leadership blocks bills to fund SNAP.

They are using hunger as leverage. It’s disgusting.

[Raquel Terán @RaquelTeran]

I want to say “I told you so”… but this isn’t about being right. It’s about our kids’ future

APS just officially abandoned its clean energy commitment. This is what happens when you let corporate profits outweigh public health. @SierraClub @ChispaAZ

[Raquel Terán @RaquelTeran]

The same people who preach ‘family values’ are working to tear families apart, and now they want to silence @SenAnaliseOrtiz for standing with our community. She won’t back down. She’s defending her First Amendment rights and our community’s rights to keep families together.

[Sen. Analise Ortiz (@senanaliseortiz.bsky.social) @SenAnaliseOrtiz]

I will not be intimidated. I will alert our community to avoid the area when Trump’s masked thugs terrorize us all, regardless of citizenship. Trump doesn’t respect our laws nor our constitution. My duty is to keep people safe from his unconstitutional and authoritarian actions.

[AZ Attorney General Kris Mayes @AZAGMayes]

Warren Petersen is using his position as Sen. President to threaten and intimidate Sen. Analise Ortiz for exercising her 1st Amendment rights. That’s not leadership—it’s bullying. I know he’s only been a lawyer for a year and a half but he needs a CLE on the Bill of Rights.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

I am deeply saddened to learn of the loss of life and injury caused by the military attack on the Holy Family Catholic Church in #Gaza. I assure the parish community of my spiritual closeness. I commend the souls of the deceased to the loving mercy of Almighty God, and pray for their families and the injured. I renew my call for an immediate ceasefire. Only dialogue and reconciliation can ensure enduring peace!
