Veterans Day 🇺🇸

The sacrifices made by veterans for our country are incomparable. We owe them so much for their service. Today offers us a chance to express our gratitude and recommit to supporting them. I've been working for our veterans since I was Mayor of Phoenix. In 2013, I fought to find …

drug costs

No one should ever have to choose between buying groceries or their life-saving prescriptions. But as prescription drug prices have skyrocketed, it's a reality many Arizonans are facing — including my own family. Our system is broken. Drug prices have gotten out of control while Big Pharma-b…

20 years later...

Hi there, It's been over twenty years since I first entered public office to represent Phoenix's 6th district on the City Council. Since then, I've served as Mayor of Phoenix, and now as a Congressman. I've learned a lot in the last decade. But fighting for the people of Arizona has always bee…

Did we scare you? Halloween is just one week away and over at Stanton HQ, we're busy getting our costumes and candy ready. Unfortunately, we're still a ways off from hitting our October fundraising goal. What we can raise now will help Greg win reelection in 2022 — no matter how spook…

bringing billions to AZ $$

As we fight our way out of this pandemic, one of my top priorities is boosting Arizona's economy to work for all of us. A key way to do this is ensuring our tourism industry remains strong. Arizona has so much to offer as a state — from our amazing national parks to our vibrant cities. …

Supporting our schools

When Governor Ducey announced his plan last month to block mask mandates in schools, it was clear he was choosing political gain over the safety of our children. Last week, he doubled down. He's now withholding federal COVID-19 relief funds from schools requiring masks in order to keep …

When it comes to protecting Arizona's future, there's almost no other issue that is more pressing than water. This year was one of the driest years on record in Arizona. The science is clear: our future will be hotter and drier, so we need to take action to prepare now. That's why I've …

Democracy is not a partisan issue

The attack on the Capitol on January 6th was not a protest. It was an attempt to subvert US democracy through violence. Before we can recover from the insurrection, we need answers. We need to know how it was organized, funded, and carried out, so it'll never happen again. The investig…

Arizona political experts are now saying my district could potentially be split up four different ways by 2022. We also only have four days before our end-of-quarter deadline. Nothing is set in stone yet, but I want to be prepared for whatever AZ-09 might look like when redistricting is…
