My name is JoAnna Mendoza. In the Marine Corps, we have a saying: lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way.
I’m running for Congress in the most competitive seat in Arizona. Together, we will flip Arizona's 6th blue.
Spread the word.

Yesterday’s conversation with @tiffanymuller.bsky.social, Jon Tester, Jason Crow, and @mendoza4az.bsky.social was another reminder of how corruption and rising costs are hurting working Americans. It’ll take real work to take on these issues, but with team members like this, we can get the job done.

Any day that you can spend with a veteran is a good day. This morning, I had the chance to join veterans and their families in Tucson to honor all our servicemembers who served our country with honor, valor, and grit.

I understand what SNAP means to #AZ06 families. Without it, I wouldn't have grown up healthy and strong enough to serve our country for twenty years. I'm appalled that starting tomorrow, so many in AZ may not be able to put food on the table because DC can't come to an agreement.

Hundreds of servicemembers in Sierra Vista are furloughed, leaving their families in limbo and our national security at risk. Every day this shutdown continues, #AZ06 families are paying the price for inaction and failed representation.
Furloughs at Arizona’s biggest Army post mean widespread pain in Sierra Vista
Roughly one in five people in Sierra Vista, Ariz., works at Fort Huachuca, where the Army trains drone operators and intelligence professionals. With thousands of civilians furloughed, the government shutdown is hitting the area especially hard.
