More than half a million veterans live in Arizona.
These men and women deserve the best that we have to offer.
In the Arizona legislature, I fought to make sure that we were investing in services and benefits for our veterans — so no one had to struggle to find a job, pay for health care, or feed their families. In Congress, I'll do the same.
Unfortunately, people like Juan Ciscomani have no problem cutting funding for our veterans if it means serving a political agenda.
Last weekend, my team sent around a petition calling on Republicans like Ciscomani to support funding for veterans services. I wanted to make sure you saw it.
Will you take a moment to sign our petition? The best way to honor the sacrifice made by veterans in this country is giving them the support they need after they finish their service. [[link removed]]
Thank you!

Subject: Protecting our veterans
This week was the one year anniversary of the passage of the PACT Act. This legislation was the biggest expansion of benefits and services for toxic exposed veterans in over thirty years, and Kirsten was thrilled to see it become law.
Veterans who are exposed to toxic chemicals while in service often don't see the negative impacts until years down the line — in illnesses like asthma, cancer, and more. The PACT Act ensures that these brave men and women are getting the care and treatment they deserve.
Veterans are heroes who have dedicated their lives to protecting our country. We owe them everything — but too often, our political leaders let them down.
Since he took office, Juan Ciscomani, Kirsten's opponent, has repeatedly voted against the best interests of our nation's service members.
He voted in lockstep with MAGA Republicans to approve a budget that would have meant 31 million fewer veteran outpatient visits and 81,000 layoffs across the Veterans Health Administration. He voted yes on banning diversity and inclusion initiatives in the Department of Defense. And he voted yes on an amendment that would make it even harder for active service members to receive reproductive care.
We should be giving the people who sacrifice so much for our country more support, not less.
In Congress, Kirsten will fight to uplift and support our veterans. Their needs will always come before culture war antics and political agendas.
On the anniversary of the PACT Act, we're calling on Republicans in Congress to stand up for veterans, not cut funding to crucial services and benefits. Will you join us by adding your name now? [[link removed]]

[link removed] [[link removed]] Kirsten is a mom, an environmental attorney, and a former State Legislator who has spent the past six years fighting to restore funding to public schools, protect Arizona's natural resources, and make our communities safer.
She’s ready to take that fight to Washington to find common-sense solutions to the challenges we’re facing here in Arizona's Sixth Congressional District.
In 2022, Kirsten lost her race by one of the smallest margins in the country. Will you make sure she can build a winning campaign early by chipping in now? [[link removed]]
