Tomatoes are about to get a lot more expensive. Trump just announced he’s going to put a special tax on tomatoes. That’s bad news for your grocery budget. I’m demanding the administration reverses this. Arizona families can’t afford it.
"I’m too old for this. I just really want to be retired." That’s what one Arizonan said after watching her savings get rocked by Trump’s chaos economy. Our seniors worked hard their whole lives. They deserve to retire with peace of mind.
We ended in London, where I spoke at Chatham House about the threats posed by Russia and China—and how the U.S. must continue leading alongside our allies to meet the moment and shape the future of global security.
I also sat down with German finance and defense ministers to discuss tariffs, defense spending, and how we can work together to keep the global economy strong and our democracies secure. And I spoke with some incredible U.S. Marines serving in Europe.
In Slovakia, I met with the Prime Minister to discuss the importance of standing up to Russian aggression in Ukraine. I returned to Nesvady—where I once taught English—and met with leaders of the Slovak Jewish community to talk about the urgent fight against rising antisemitism.
🧵Just wrapped a bipartisan trip to Europe. We met with allies, defense officials, and diplomatic partners to reaffirm our shared commitment to security, democracy, and stability across the globe.
Arizona’s small and Tribal police departments don’t have massive budgets or endless backup — but they show up every day to protect our communities. I’m backing the bipartisan Invest to Protect Act of 2025 to get them the resources they need to keep Arizona safe.
Today is Tax Day. But because of Elon Musk and DOGE, Americans might wait longer for their refunds. We should be focused on giving hardworking families a tax break, not making the ultra rich richer.
This is going to raise prices at the grocery store. There’s no question about it. Arizona businesses and shoppers will be harmed because this administration cares more about the profit margins of billionaires instead of lowering costs.
Families in Arizona are already stretching every dollar at the grocery store. Now Congressional Republicans want to slash food assistance by billions of dollars just to give tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy.
Arizona is in the midst of a housing crisis, and too often our disabled veterans are impacted the most. This week, I introduced a bipartisan bill that makes a commonsense fix to aid eligibility—so more disabled veterans can access safe, affordable housing.
