Speaker Johnson’s delay leaves the people of Arizona’s 7th District without any representation.
John, have you seen what Republicans are doing to stop Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva from taking office?
FIRST: Voters overwhelmingly elected Democrat Adelita Grijalva in a special election to Congress in Southern Arizona.
THEN: When Adelita went to Washington to be sworn in, Speaker Mike Johnson refused — breaking the precedent he set himself when two Republicans were sworn in less than 24 hours after their elections — and leaving her community without a voice in Congress. 28 days later, he’s still refusing to seat her.
NOW: We’re fighting back to make Republicans pay for their obstruction by raising $10,000 every day they continue to delay swearing Adelita in — to beat them at the ballot box and flip the House next year.
John, this moment is too important to ignore. Speaker Johnson’s delay isn’t just partisan — it’s shameful, and leaves the people of Arizona’s 7th District without any representation. Blocking Adelita from taking office to protect their own power is an attack on our democracy — and we can’t let it stand!
