From Phoenix to Tucson to Flagstaff, I’ve been hearing from Arizonans all over the state about the challenges they face and the dreams they’re chasing. The Arizona Promise is alive and well—and together, we’re making it stronger every day. #ArizonaPromise #AZPromiseTour

I have declared a State of Emergency in La Paz County after the Oxbow Bridge collapsed into the Colorado River following severe wildfire damage. The state is working with local, federal, and Tribal partners to support response to the disaster, prioritizing protecting the

This year we’ve made the largest state investment in child care since the Great Recession, as part of my Bright Futures AZ initiative. Today in Flagstaff, I met with parents, educators, and community leaders to talk about how we can keep building a stronger, more affordable

Arizona needs more nurses and healthcare professionals to meet growing demand for care. Through the AZ Healthy Tomorrow initiative and investments like SPEED bonding, we’re working with NAU to expand programs and train the next generation of healthcare workers.

Arizona firefighters put their lives on the line to protect our communities and we owe it to them to invest in the resources they need to do their jobs effectively. That’s why my Arizona Promise Budget invests $30 million in wildfire prevention and $4 million to build a new

Today on Purple Heart Day, I had the honor of visiting the Arizona State Veterans Home in Tucson, which was recently named one of the top nursing homes in the nation. It was a privilege to meet many residents, and I’m grateful to them for their service to our country.

Today, I met with Arizona National Guardsmen deployed for Task Force SAFE which is part of the Arizona’s Counter Drug Task Force—our mission to stop drug trafficking at the border and throughout the state. In the last year, Arizona has seized over 25 million fentanyl pills.

Small businesses like INNR Strength & Conditioning are building stronger communities. A $10,000 loan they received through our microbusiness loan program helped them expand into a larger gym space, and now they can take on more clients to continue growing their business. When

Today I proudly signed HB2484 into law, banning cellphones in classrooms so our students can stay focused and our teachers can teach without distractions. Arizona classrooms are spaces for learning, not scrolling.

President Trump ran on lowering costs and creating jobs. Gutting Solar for All will do the exact opposite. It makes our air dirtier, our energy bills higher, and our economy weaker. I will continue to fight for the clean and affordable energy future Arizonans want and deserve.

Every Arizonan deserves reliable access to clean water. Today I visited San Simon, where we invested $1.5M to drill a new well and ensure this community has the water it needs. For too long, families here have faced water outages that disrupt daily life. This funding is part of

I'll be reaching out to APS to discuss their decision and reiterate that we must continue investing in new energy technologies and diversify our energy portfolio at the fastest rate possible.

Arizona needs an abundance of energy, with a strong, and reliable grid to keep our communities safe and to continue our economic growth. This decision sets us back. It makes our air dirtier, hurts our growing clean energy economy, and forfeits the cost savings of renewable.

Arizona’s DPS troopers and dispatchers put their lives on the line every single day to keep us safe—and they deserve a wage that reflects their dedication. That’s why we secured a 5% pay raise for these heroes in this year’s budget. Today, I visited DPS HQ to say thank you and

Arizona’s economy is growing faster than ever, and that means more demand for skilled workers. Through BuildItAZ, we’re removing barriers to training and doubling apprenticeship opportunities by 2026 so more Arizonans can start a rewarding career in the trades.
