This includes: • $140,000 Given By The American Crystal Sugar Company PAC To Members Of The Caucus. • $120,000 Given By Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s Majority Committee PAC To Members Of The Caucus • $41,000 Given By The Space Exploration Technologies Corp.

Duke Energy and Boeing are also on this list despite these entity’s public declarations in January aimed at their customers and shareholders that were pausing all donations for a period of time, including those to members that voted against certifying the election. The leaders, companies and trade groups associated with these PACs should have to answer for their support of lawmakers whose votes that fueled the violence and sedition we saw on January 6.

  • Mayor Attends Arizona-Mexico Commission's 60Th Anniversary Summit
    Mayor Attends Arizona-Mexico Commission's 60th Anniversary Summit During the last week of June, I attended the Arizona Mexico Commission's 60th Anniversary Summit. Arizona and Sonora have made history over the past 60 years as neighbors, partners and friends. The Arizona-Mexico Commission (AMC), founded in 1959, celebrated its 60th anniversary at its 2019 Summit in Phoenix. Throughout the past sixty years, the Commission has focused on strengthening the relationship between Arizona and Mexico. Together, we continue to define our future. While attending, various conversations were held regarding: Agribusiness and Wildlife, Arts and Culture, Community and Social Organizations, Education, Emergency Management, Real Estate, Tourism, Economic Development, Energy, Environment and Water, Financial and Legal Services, Health Services, Mining, Security, Transportation, Infrastructure, and Ports. The forums I attended were informative and on-point. On Wednesday, I attended the Transportation Electrification Forum focusing upon the electric grid and the economic impact of transportation innovation and electric vehicle adoption. On Thursday, attendees heard from keynote speakers regarding North American and global leadership and 21st century healthcare (specifically, as it relates to genomic medicine). There was also an important panel discussion on border infrastructure. Friday started with a fireside chat with three members of the United States House of Representatives (Rep. Debbie Lesko, Rep. David Schweikert, and Rep. Greg Stanton). This was followed by a panel discussion focusing upon markets of opportunity. Next, I participated in a small group meeting with Governors Doug Ducey (Arizona) and Claudia Pavlovich (Sonora, Mexico). Arizona's trade with Mexico and Canada exceed $20 billion last year. #USMCA will ensure our region's economic prosperity.

  • July 21, 2021 Dear Leaders of Democratic States
    July 21, 2021 Dear Leaders of Democratic States: In the streets of Cuba, the people are bravely marching for a new day of freedom and demanding an end to the illegitimate, brutal Cuban dictatorship. After more than six decades of brutally oppressive rule, the Cuban people are risking their lives to loudly denounce the disastrous communist regime that has time and time again failed to promote and protect the general welfare of its citizens. The people are shouting “libertad,” and demanding freedom, democracy and human rights. As the Cuban people risk their lives for freedom, the world must stand with them in this critically important moment. As the democratically-elected leaders of the world’s free countries, we write to you today to fervently implore you to take action in support of the Cuban people and their democratic aspirations. It is time to finally end the evil and murderous reign of the communist, illegitimate Cuban regime that has murdered, tortured and oppressed for far too long. In concerted solidarity with the Cuban people, we believe there are four essential actions that we all must take immediately to promote freedom for the Cuban people and place further pressure on the corrupt and murderous Cuban regime to end its reign of terror. First, we urge you to emphatically denounce the illegitimate Cuban regime, hold it accountable for its human rights abuses and immediately end diplomatic relations. Freedom-loving nations must make clear our full and unwavering support for Cuba's pro-democracy movement, and for free and fair elections, with international supervision.
