As long as I’ve served Arizona, I’ve worked to help others see our common humanity & find common ground. That’s the same approach I’ll take to representing our great state in the Senate, where I’ll be an independent voice for all Arizonans. Thank you, Arizona. Let’s get to work.
I’ve never commented about a fellow Senator’s choices/actions. Never once. This, America, is absolutely irresponsible. You cannot be near other people while waiting for coronavirus test results. It endangers others & likely increases the spread of the virus. During the Senate GOP lunch today, Moran told colleagues that Rand was at the gym this morning, per two sources briefed on the lunch, and that he was swimming in the pool. Rand got his COVID-19 results back this morning.
Back in DC, headed to the first day of Senate school. I’m overcome with gratitude - thank you Arizona! It’s the privilege of my life to represent you. 🌵
In a natural extension of my service since I was first elected to Congress, I have joined the growing numbers of Arizonans who reject party politics by declaring my independence from the broken partisan system in Washington and formally registering as an Arizona Independent. 1/3
Couldn’t be prouder to support your work transforming communities, and lucky to call you a friend. Thanks Kyrsten! Working across the aisle on good ideas shouldn’t be such a foreign concept.
Update: all National Guardsmen are welcomed back to the Capitol tonight. No more parking garages. My office is available; the Guard is welcome to it. There is plenty of space in the US Capitol for the men and women keeping us safe.
Daylight saving time ends tomorrow. Arizona, you know what to do: ✨Nothing✨
To state the supremely obvious, eliminating the filibuster to codify Roe v Wade also enables a future Congress to ban all abortion nationwide. What an absolutely terrible, shortsighted idea. Vice President Harris told Wisconsin Public Radio that she supports eliminating the Senate filibuster to codify Roe v. Wade.trib.al/2yQ8Ite
Congratulations, @katiehobbs ! Looking forward to working with you as we continue creating opportunities for Arizona to grow and thrive.
Change of heart on the filibuster, I see! Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Chuck Schumer saying he’ll vote to advance CR: ‘Deep sense of outrage and betrayal’ trib.al/JjkARtr
A woman's health care decisions should be between her, her family, and her doctor. We'll always protect women’s access to health care.
A woman's health care choices should be between her, her family, and her doctor. I voted for the Women's Health Protection Act and will continue working with anyone to protect women’s ability to make decisions about their futures.
In 2018 my race wasn’t called for 6 days. I jumped on a redeye to DC to make senate orientation-I learned so much & made lasting relationships that week. Dave McCormick & Ruben Gallego will be Senators for PA & AZ. They should be invited to orientation & start learning the job.
