I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and loved ones. I am grateful for all of God's blessings and for the opportunity to represent you and your family in Congress. 

Small Business Saturday

This Saturday is Small Business Saturday! Small businesses are the backbone of our economy. With the holiday season upon us, be sure to support the small businesses in our community.

Casework Highlight

A constituent lost benefits because Social Security Administration mistakenly reported him as deceased after his son, who was named after him, passed away. Our office reached out to both the Social Security Administration and the Defense Financial Accounting Service to resolve the issue and get back payment of funds issued. The constituent reported that he received backpay and that his next regular monthly payment is scheduled to be deposited next month. 

Arizona’s District 8 Congressional Recognition

We presented Mike Spinelli, Vietnam Veteran and Anthem resident, with Arizona’s District 8 Congressional Recognition. Mike’s service to our country during the Vietnam War has led to a life of public service. One of the many ways he has made an impact is through his passion for photography. One of his best-known images is of the internationally-known Anthem Veterans Memorial. Thank you to Mike for his service and for his work with veterans in our community!

Protecting Animals from Abuse

Pets are a part of our family. That is why I cosponsored the Preventing Animal Cruelty and Torture Act which was signed into law by President Trump. This bill makes animal cruelty a felony.

May God continue to bless you are our great Nation!

Sincerely,

Congresswoman Debbie Lesko
