U.S. Senator for Arizona.
Husband. Dad. Veteran.
I’ve looked hardworking Arizona parents in the eyes and promised I’d fight to help them keep their health insurance.

I sure as hell won’t give up that fight for a show vote.

I had a great time chatting with our DC interns this morning. They asked thoughtful questions about public service, leadership, and what it’s really like to work in Congress. I always leave these conversations inspired by their curiosity and commitment to making a difference.

You can feel it. Working class Latinos are frustrated. Prices keep rising, ICE raids are ramping up, and people who once stayed quiet are beginning to question how they are being treated. The data finally shows what we’ve been hearing in our communities.

If you think tearing hardworking Latino families apart won’t backfire, think again. Our community doesn’t run — we fight back.

Chatted with Jessiah over at Pondering Politics today. We talked election results, government shutdown, and how dems should fight back. Watch the full episode out now!

There has to be a solution from Republicans, or at least assurances I can believe in. Because right now, 24 million Americans are at risk of seeing their healthcare costs double overnight. That’s not something I’m willing to gamble with.

For Día de Los Muertos, @padilla.senate.gov and I each left a photo of a loved one at the other office’s ofrenda.

Proud to bring a beautiful tradition to the U.S. Senate to remember and honor those who have gone before us.

Today is November 1st. Today, 24 million families woke up to outrageous health care costs. Today, Republicans leave them behind.

It’s absurd that AI companies are letting their chatbots run unchecked, exposing kids and teens to sexual abuse and encouraging self-harm. It must end now.

I’m working across the aisle to pass the GUARD Act to hold Big Tech accountable and protect our kids.

You can now preview 2026 ACA insurance premiums on healthcare.gov.

A family of four in Maricopa County paid $514 a month for their ACA plan in 2025. Next year, that same plan will cost $2,435. That kind of increase will be devastating for thousands of Arizona families.
October 29, 2025 at 7:51 PM
I sat down with Steve, a husband and father of three from Gilbert, Arizona. He already pays $3,400 each month for health insurance through the ACA to make sure his family can get the care they need.

Families like Steve’s shouldn’t have to face their health care costs rising even higher.

I'm willing to negotiate, but I refuse to let 24 million Americans see their health insurance premiums skyrocket.

This President is trying to conduct an illegal war with Venezuela and is murdering civilians.

Congress created a contingency fund specifically to keep SNAP running during a shutdown.

Trump knows that. He’s lying when he says we can’t keep it going. He’s using hunger as leverage.
October 28, 2025 at 2:53 PM
With Republicans controlling all three branches, the ball’s in their court. I want a deal, but negotiations require them to show up. If they don’t, 24 million Americans will pay the price.
October 27, 2025 at 10:43 PM
Middle class families are already stretched thin. I’m not going to tell them their premiums are doubling and there’s nothing I can do. I’m not backing down.
October 27, 2025 at 9:12 PM
It’s not complicated. 24 million Americans don’t want their health insurance premiums doubled overnight.
October 27, 2025 at 2:36 PM
Families are fighting to afford groceries and gas. Inflation’s up, energy costs are through the roof. Donald Trump’s biggest concern? Knocking down the White House’s historic east wing to build a ballroom for himself.
October 26, 2025 at 6:16 PM
Trump is blasting Venezuelan ships out of the water to make himself feel tough.

Either send the Coast Guard onto these ships or come to Congress for a declaration of war. Plain and simple.
October 26, 2025 at 5:21 PM
I know a family in Arizona paying $3,000 a month for health insurance. Now, they’re being told it could jump to $6,000. I'm asking Republicans to come to the negotiating table so that 24 million Americans don't see their premiums skyrocket or lose coverage altogether.

What exactly is a government shutdown? @mcbride.house.gov and I break it down for you in our new video, Shutdown for Dummies!

Every federal worker deserves to get paid, not just the ones Republicans pick and choose.

That’s why I’m co-sponsoring Senator Peters's bill to make sure ALL federal employees are paid back during this GOP shutdown.

923,000 Arizonans rely on SNAP to put food on the table.

This administration could stop millions from losing those benefits during their own shutdown. But instead, they’re sitting on billions in funding and letting people go hungry. I’m demanding USDA act now.

WTF. These people are not well
