Arizona Republicans are harassing Senator Analise Ortiz for protecting our community.
NEW: Arizona Republicans filed an ethics complaint against me for resharing a post when masked, armed men showed up outside a school. They want to lock me out of the Senate and stop me from doing my job. This is a straight out of the authoritarian playbook.

The CBO just confirmed it: the GOP’s “tax bill” will trigger automatic cuts — $500B from Medicare, $800B from Medicaid, $279B from SNAP — all because of PAYGO.

Laws should solve real problems—like better healthcare or financial protection. So why do so many lawmakers push laws based on disproven conspiracy theories? Headlines maybe? Let’s keep asking: Who benefits, and who’s left out when outrageous laws are proposed? Demand better! #TruthBrigade
