The GOP won’t protect our fundamental rights.

John, since the conservative majority on the Supreme Court made the reckless decision to overturn Roe, we’ve seen Republican-led states roll back and restrict access to safe and legal abortion – and we’re only fooling ourselves if we think it’ll stop there. From Alabama to Texas, we’ve seen Republi…

Do you know who has taken on MAGA Republicans before?

Raquel Terán and she won. Do you remember Russell Pearce, the author of the infamous ‘show me your papers’ law? Or maybe Joe Arpaio? And we’d be so lucky to forget about Donald Trump and Kari Lake.  John, you know what all these folks have in common? Raquel Terán has taken them all on – and WON!  Sh…

I'm proud to be on Team Terán.

Hey John,  Senator Mark Kelly here. I wanted to tell you a little bit about my friend Raquel Terán and why I’ve endorsed her campaign for Congress in Arizona’s 3rd District. I’ve watched Raquel time and again build broad coalitions of voters in our community to do things we’ve heard couldn’t be done…

Can’t buy real leadership

Hi John, There’s no sugarcoating it: It’s a stressful time. The cost of living is expensive, access to safe and legal abortions is under threat, and our democracy has never felt more fragile. But this isn’t the first time we’ve faced daunting challenges with tough odds of winning.  Recalling Joe Arp…

Fighting for what’s right

Raising our minimum wage? Fighting for clean air and water? Supporting renewable energy projects? Defeating anti-immigrant Republicans?  John, those are all things Raquel has fought for during her time as a community organizer and Arizona State Legislator.   Even when the decks were stacked against…

Planned Parenthood is with Terán for Congress

Hi John, Earlier this month, Planned Parenthood made it official and endorsed Terán for Congress in AZ03!  Here’s why this matters so much: Arizona’s 3rd district is a battleground for abortion rights – the people in our communities need access to this healthcare. But, right-wing Republicans are dea…
