Pro Act threatens small business recovery
The PRO Act currently has 47 cosponsors in the United States Senate. Arizonans should be proud that Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Mark Kelly are not among those 47.
Driving forward for clean air, climate action in Phoenix
While the previously outlined Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework may be a necessary step toward passing a major climate bill, it does not go far enough in addressing air pollution and the climate crisis.
Contact Sinema, Kelly; support the PRO Act
The future of your right to organize depends entirely on you and your fellow Arizonans. The PRO Act is in danger of failing because of representatives like Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Mark Kelly, who have outright refused to support the bill.
Sinema, like McCain, reaches for bipartisanship
More than for her shock of purple hair or unpredictable votes, Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema is perhaps best known for doing the unthinkable in Washington: She spends time on the Republican side of the aisle.
Step up Sinema – abolish the filibuster
But with the filibuster, S1 has no chance of passing. It’s simple: every day Sinema drags her feet on eliminating the filibuster — and every day that fellow Democrats and Biden don’t pressure her to change course — is a day our elected representatives are choosing decorum over democracy.
Conservationists split on protections for Grand Canyon
While Democrats work on two fronts to protect the Grand Canyon, conservationists disagree on one of the measures.
Sinema not securing the right to vote

House Republicans’ hopes of passing a budget Tuesday were dashed when the Democrats boycotted the morning’s floor session.
Statehood for D.C.
Arizona’s senators have the power to extend voting rights, congressional representation, and statehood to the 712,000 residents of Washington D.C. this year. Just as veterans and servicemembers live here in Arizona, tens of thousands of us live in our nation’s capital — and they’re depending on you, Senator Sinema and Senator Kelly, to honor their service and do the right thing.
Sinema, Kelly, uncommitted on D.C. statehood
Thirty-three Democratic state senators and House members are calling on the state’s congressional delegation to support Washington, D.C., statehood, in advance of a June 22 U.S. Senate hearing on the topic.
Kelly makes bid to help rural Arizona communities
U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly has teamed up with Republican Sen. John Thune of South Dakota to introduce legislation to stop a statistical change that could affect rural communities’ access to federal funds.
Elections law is simply voter suppression
SB1485, which our governor signed as quickly as possible, to avoid voter contact, which he knows is objectionable, is voter suppression pure and simple. Other words are just distractions to this fact. Voters know this and will act.
