This is government failure at its worst. During the deadliest Texas floods in years, FEMA help was delayed because of a policy requiring Kristi Noem’s PERSONAL approval. We lost 120 lives. 170 people are still missing. I’m demanding a full investigation.

There is zero reason ICE agents should be hiding their faces or identities. This isn’t about safety. It’s about fear theater. And now we’re seeing copycat attacks causing more chaos and violence. It needs to stop.

Why the hell was a wildfire allowed to burn at the Grand Canyon in the middle of July during one of the driest years on record? 
I’m demanding answers and a full investigation from the Department of the Interior.

In case you missed it, I put out a plan to save the middle class and restore the American dream.

One of the best parts of this job is meeting the next generation of Arizona leaders. I was honored to speak with students in the Latino Leaders Program at Chandler City Hall. I may be Arizona’s first Latino Senator, but if these kids have anything to do with it, I won’t be the last.

It’s Indigenous Peoples’ Day—a day to honor the Indigenous communities that continue to shape Arizona's history, heritage, and culture.

AI companies are making a fortune right now. Working people can't get left behind. My plan is simple: tax AI companies and data centers, then use that money to put Americans to work in a New Deal-style public service jobs program. We did it before, and we can do it again.

Anyone who works hard enough, saves enough, and plays by the rules should be able to build wealth for their family, buy a car, a house, or a big-ass truck. The American dream. But right now, hard work isn't cutting it. And as elected officials, it’s our job to change that.

This means a handful of Trump’s billionaire buddies will control huge parts of the media. The next president needs to break up all the mergers approved under this administration. Big business has to understand there are consequences when they team up with corrupt government.

Kids are getting phones younger and younger, and we’re seeing the consequences in the classroom: more distractions, less learning. As a dad of three young kids, I’m worried. It’s time to get cell phones out of the classroom. I introduced a bill to get it done.

On her way out the door, Kristi Noem used taxpayer dollars to buy five planes from a donor. Just the latest example of blatant government corruption under President Trump.

While you had to pay up, Meta skirted almost $4 billion in taxes last year. How? By abusing a tax credit tied to its data centers. It's time to make corporations pay their fair share.

Once rogue AI agents start speaking in their own language, they won't care whether you're America or China. We're all at risk. Congress needs to take that threat seriously.
