President Biden's budget does nothing to solve the deficit spending problem — adding $16.3 trillion in 10 years!
Meanwhile, @HouseBudgetGOP’s FY25 resolution gets us on a path to surpluses — $10.4 trillion LOWER than Biden’s budget without increasing taxes.
700,000 Arizona families received tax relief last year after suffering from historic inflation levels.
The IRS then decided months later to tax their rebate, even after some families already began filing their taxes.
I wrote to the IRS with Congressman Juan Ciscomani and Representative Greg Stanton demanding the agency reverse this terrible decision and help Arizonans keep this tax relief in their pockets.

Lower taxes is not always the solution to problems. How about a windfall profits tax on corporations who price gouge consumers. Let's look at all the options, instead of pushing a one-size-fits -all WRONG idea.

Trump created more debt than any president in history. He cut taxes for the Rich and Corporations, added a new Department of Defense called Space Force. How can you cut taxes when the country is borrowing money to pay its bills? He put more farmers in bankruptcy than any other President by placing tariffs on China. As a result, we had to pay farmers Over 40 billion in taxpayer dollars not to grow anything because China stopped buying because of the tariffs... Trump put tariffs on goods coming in from China. When we don't make anything, which means those tariffs were passed on to the American consumer in the form of higher prices. He fired the White House pandemic response team, which led to a pandemic. And millions of American lives lost

The Republicans (GOP) wants to run on negative partisanship and Biden hate alone. To do so they try to evoke a magical, imaginary past that never happened. That’s, after all, what the slogan, “Make America Great Again” has always meant. “ Trumps “America First” policy: As a slogan in American political discourse, "America First" originated from the nativist American Party in the 1850s. The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) used the phrase at the organization's peak in the 1920s, when racist, xenophobic sentiment was widespread; it informed many of their members who ran for political office The Immigration Act of 1924 sponsored by Washington U.S. representative Albert Johnson proved to legislate xenophobia and white supremacy, excluding immigrants on the basis of ethnicity and national origin in an effort to preserve white racial demographics Johnson’s leading role in the immigration restriction bill elicited strong support from the KKK It was, in fact, the worst of times.

Four years ago, in March 2020, the covid pandemic was rampaging across the world and country as the president desperately tried to wish it away. People were getting sick, many were dying, and the economy was shutting down as a result. It’s not a time to look back on with nostalgia. Republicans hope voters have cloudy memories. More broadly, they hope people don’t remember what Trump’s presidency was like. Just to keep a grasp on reality, it’s worth reminding ourselves just how wretched that year was…” Click&read the Public Notice article here. www.publicnotice.co/p/are-you-better-off-2024-election-gop-trump?fbclid=IwAR3_nzln7U9KHVX1Sy-Z-Yt...
Election denial is unpopular among most Arizonans. Prominent deniers lost all statewide elections in 2022 – Lake to Katie Hobbs in the governor’s race, Finchem to Fontes for secretary of state, and Hamadeh to Democrat Kris Mayes for attorney general. According to Public Wise, 12 of the 16 Republicans in the Arizona senate have participated in election denialism or other acts that undermine confidence in democracy. Of the 32 Republican state lawmakers listed on the election threats index, almost half have introduced anti-democratic legislation and 84% have voted for it. Recent bills proposed by far-right lawmakers include: • House bill (HB) 2472, which would make it easier to challenge election results in court, removing legal hurdles that led to Lake and Hamadeh’s lawsuits being dismissed for lack of evidence; • Senate bill (SB) 1471 and HB2722, which would promote hand counts of all ballots, a key demand of election deniers who claim without proof that vote-counting equipment is rigged; and • (HB)2415, which would strip Arizonans from the early voter list whenever they fail to vote. None of these bills have hope of being enacted, given the veto power of Hobbs, the Democratic governor. Last year she vetoed a record 143 bills, dismissing them with such tart remarks as “the 2020 election is settled” and “it’s time to move on”. Of all the recent moves from Republican lawmakers, the most striking has been SCR1014, a senate constitutional resolution introduced in January by Kern. It rehashes a highly dubious judicial doctrine championed by Trump’s lawyer John Eastman in the buildup to the January 6 insurrection. The “independent state legislature theory” claims that the US constitution gives state legislatures – as opposed to individual voters – the power to choose who becomes the next president. “The Legislature, and no other official, shall appoint presidential electors in accordance with the US Constitution,” Kern’s resolution bluntly states. SCR1014 has no chance of becoming law – it would require a majority of Arizonans to back the idea in a ballot initiative, which in effect would be asking the state’s 4 million registered voters to disenfranchise themselves. But the resolution does lay down a road map of the Freedom Caucus’s intentions. The Guardian invited Kern to explain his resolution, but he did not respond. Anthony Kern, leading Republicans in the state senate. They were among the 11 fake electors, and Kern went on to appear at the attack at the US Capitol on January 6. The two senators are also key members of the Freedom Caucus, the alliance of far-right Republican lawmakers that dominates the legislature. Since the advent of Trump, the Arizona Republican party has moved relentlessly to the right, with the Freedom Caucus accumulating power while moderate Republicans have been driven out. The Freedom Caucus is umbilically linked to Turning Point Action www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/mar/16/arizona-election-denial-consequences
