#Arizona will be receiving over $42M from the #BIL to tackle PFAS contaminants in our water. #Tucson has been a leader in cleaning and remediating PFAS from our water. This is a direct investment in our community and for future generations.

12 years ago today, I was meeting my constituents at a local Safeway.

Then everything changed.

Six people were shot & killed: Christina-Taylor Green, Dorothy Morris, Judge John Roll, Phyllis Schneck, Dorwan Stoddard, Gabe Zimmerman. I was shot in the head. 12 more were injured.

As I hand over the keys to the next congressman, I hope you’ll carry on your contributions and dedication to our community and continue making a difference because together, step by step, it all adds up to progress. My full farewell letter to Arizona:

Thank you! Your such strong leader and advocate for Tucson, you’ve helped expand the opportunities!

Thank you Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick for supporting investments that will be felt by #Tucsonans for years to come. These will improve pedestrian and bike paths, support our unhoused neighbors, protect our communities from #climatechange , and revitalize spaces that bring us all together.

Proud of our work on Approps! We Delivered! Southern Az set for big investments from $1.7T federal spending package tucsonsentinel.com/local/report/1… via Tucson Sentinel

Oh boy, this is bittersweet. My final LTE as a Member of Congress.

'As I reflect on my nearly two decades representing Arizonans and prepare for my retirement, I feel immensely grateful for the opportunities and successes we have had along the way...'

Local Journalism matters

From the depths of the COVID pandemic, our historic American Rescue Plan put:
🩹Shots in arms
💵Money in pockets
🏫Children in schools
🛠People in jobs

Today, I introduced the TEACH Act to support our nation’s educators and increase teacher retention. This bill authorizes a study of the impact COVID-19 had on educators and establishes a grant program to implement & improve wellness programs for employees ow.ly/5nmB50LZ3Um

It’s true, Rep. Greg Stanton was instrumental in keeping this a top priority for the admin. Proud of his unwavering commitment to keeping Arizonans safe. Good representation matters.

As a member representing a robust defense district, I understand the importance of investing in what makes America strong: our service members, innovation, technology & our alliances. I’m proud to vote, contribute and deliver direct AZ wins in the #FY23NDAA

Today we celebrate love and the right to marry who YOU choose!
THANK YOU Kyrsten Sinema Senator Mark Kelly Raul M. Grijalva Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick and our other Arizona leaders for taking this important action.

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
#RespectForMarriage

No one should be discriminated against because of who they love. We can't take anything for granted w/ this MAGA Supreme Court threatening our freedoms; Congress must act. I'm proud to vote for #RespectForMarriageAct , which strengthens the rights of millions under federal law.
