    Gabby and I saw Dolores Huerta earlier this year, and she had so much energy and fight. I'm so sad to hear of her passing. I'm thinking of her family and everyone in Arizona and across the country who looked up to her. It's hard to overstate how many lives she changed and how many people she inspired to stand up, organize, and make a difference in their communities. She was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for leading historic farm worker contracts and advancing civil rights, women’s rights, and social justice. She set an incredibly high bar for what one person can accomplish, but she also showed us that we all have a part to play. I can't think of a better legacy than that.

    My mom and grandmother both had breast cancer. The Tyrer-Cuzick risk assessment test helped my friend @oliviamunn catch her breast cancer early and beat it, so we teamed up to make sure more women get their risk assessed so they can get the care they need. This November, we’ll be introducing the Know Your Risk Act to do just that.

    Visited @GESD32’s Southwest Early College Academy in San Luis. I had the best time with students and seeing the high-quality public education they’re receiving. This place is becoming a math powerhouse, and it’s setting up these young people to succeed at whatever they put their minds to.

    If you’re having trouble with a federal agency, my office can help. From VA benefits and Social Security to Medicare and passports, we've helped thousands of Arizonans get what they're owed. That's what our team is here for.

    The companies that stand to profit the most from AI should invest in American workers. My Make AI Work for Americans Act makes that happen.

    Suspending the federal gas and diesel tax will lower costs to save money at the pump. I've introduced legislation to do just that. It's one quick step Washington can take to relieve some of the burden Americans are facing.

    Another consequence of Trump’s Iran war? School transportation budgets are being stretched thin because of rising diesel prices. Everyone is paying the price for this misguided war.

    Prices are way too high and families are struggling. That’s because of Trump’s tariffs and his Iran war. @RepChrisPappas and I have a plan to suspend the federal tax on gas, diesel, and airline fuel to put more money in your pockets.

    Young people are doing everything right, and still falling behind. Can't afford rent. Can't afford health care. Can't save for a home. In the richest country in the world, that's not acceptable. I'm fighting to lower costs on housing, health care, gas, and groceries because this generation deserves a fair shot.

    This is voter intimidation, plain and simple. Don't let anyone tell you this is about election security. It's about scaring eligible Americans from exercising their right to vote, and it’s not going to work.

    Armed and in uniform, agents from the Department of Homeland Security have been knocking on doors to ask residents about their immigration status whether they're registered to vote.

    Good conversation with Arizona Latino community leaders about the challenges families are facing every day. Everything from the cost of housing and health care to concerns about immigration enforcement. 
  I appreciate their partnership and will keep working to tackle these challenges.

    In what world is Putin a "humanitarian?” He's assassinated political rivals and journalists, bombed hospitals, and started a war that has intentionally killed tens of thousands of innocent people, including women and children. He's a war criminal.

    We’ve been fighting for years to make Chiricahua America’s next national park and today it became official! And with that, it makes four for Arizona! One of the most remarkable landscapes in the state just got the recognition and protection it deserves. This will create jobs and help preserve a natural wonder for generations to come.

    Gas prices are still too high. I’m fighting to suspend federal gas and diesel taxes to put money back in the pockets of every American who drives to work, drops their kids off at school, or fills up their truck.

    My mom became the first woman police officer in our hometown back in the ‘70s. She had to scale a wall for the physical fitness test, and after months of practice, she could do it faster than the men. She taught me how to make a goal, plan for it, and execute it. I've carried that my whole life.

    RT @SenatorLujan: New Mexico’s name dates back hundreds of years, long before the United States even existed. It carries generations of history, culture, and rich traditions that continue to shape who we are. We are New Mexicans. We’re proud of our name, proud of our home, and we’re keeping both. Long after Donald Trump is out of office, we’ll still be New Mexico.

    Union workers keep Arizona’s economy running. I met with Teamsters Local 104 to hear about their organizing efforts at the Stock Yards and understand how rising costs are impacting their members. Now more than ever, workers deserve fair pay, good benefits, and a strong voice on the job.

    What does Hollywood get right about space, and where does it miss the mark? I sat down with @RealDoctorMike to break down ABC’s 9-1-1 space plotline and separate science fiction from reality.

    Two years ago today, Marine Corps veteran Nicholas Douglas Quets from Tucson was murdered by cartel affiliates in Mexico. I'm proud to have worked alongside his parents, Doug and Patricia, to honor his life and service. I’m pushing to keep his legacy alive and protect Americans traveling abroad.
