2022 #Midterms Simulation: #ArtoftheGerrymander
A Republican House win will be built on gerrymanders (TX/GA/FL/TN/LA, etc.)
To illustrate the need for fair maps, I'm calculating the results using the 2022 votes, but if every state had a Democratic gerrymander. #ElectionTwitter

Methodology:
I’ll apply the difference in Presidential margin to the House result. Thanks @davesredist @mikemathieu @vest_team + @DKElections @PoliticsWolf
Keen to see how my maps perform over the decade; tried to comply with state law if partisan intent were allowed to stand.

Trump 62.0% - Biden 36.6%
Real delegation: 6R-1D
Gerrymandered: 5R-2D
Δ Share of D seats: 14% => 28%
Easy Democratic pick-up of a safe new African American seat.

I applaud @GeneralBrnovich for filing this brief and defending the Arizona Constitution against unconstitutional executive overreach by the State of Arizona against small businesses. azcentral.com/story/money/bu… #AZ05
Arizona has devastated businesses and families with its arbitrary, unjust, and draconian restrictions.
We did not value and protect all lives, and our state will be feeling the consequences for months and years to come, including the precedent from the executive overreach.

I look forward to seeing the continuation of this lawsuit against the state, and I pray that these businesses – and all other affected establishments – receive the relief they deserve.
Hundreds of East Valley parents, grandparents, and teachers have emailed my office over the past couple days, making their thoughts known about the state of Arizona’s educational options.
77% of respondents so far support a return to in-person education for our children. #AZ05

We’re still going through the emails, and we will be sharing many of the responses, taking care to protect the full identities of those who took the time to share their experiences.
I am listening to all of my constituents on this matter. If you have not sent in your experience with virtual education, you can email my office at AZ05Stories@mail.house.gov if you reside in my district.
We want to amplify your voices in our communities.

No single unelected bureaucrat — and that includes Fauci — has the wisdom, vision, or authority to issue edicts that control and constrain the 330 million people who comprise our society. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/op-eds… #AZ05
The media are giving an inordinately great weight to Fauci’s careless, casual statements about everything from mask-wearing to keeping schools closed this fall.
And his apparent expectation is that everyone will simply bow in obedience to whatever he says.
And his apparent expectation is that everyone will simply bow in obedience to whatever he says.
All these opinions from a man who has repeatedly admitted that he didn’t focus on the broad impact his policies would have on the public.
Earlier this year, I wrote to the @DeptVetAffairs opposing its effort to suspend new student enrollments at the @UOPX. azcentral.com/story/news/loc… #AZ05
@DeptVetAffairs @UOPX I believed that there was no sound legal justification for this action, and that the VA failed to inform the university of the definitions and standards that will be used to determine whether they have taken sufficient "corrective action" to prevent the suspension.
@DeptVetAffairs @UOPX I am pleased that the VA decided in the university's favor.
@axios My name is Joan Greene and I am the Democrat running AGAINST Andy Biggs. I just wrote a post regarding this on my twitter campaign page - @joangreeneaz I would appreciate your follow and support.

@axios When you have an elected person such as Biggs whose only goal is follow his extreme narrative, even though our district has the highest spike in COVID-19 cases, you don't just have a person playing partisan/political games with our lives,

@axios you have a person who is a danger to our national security. He must be removed by vote & then laws strengthened to make sure any future elected official who knowingly lies and causes harm can be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. #HireJoan #AZ05

COVID-19 is not always a death sentence, but there is always a price to pay.
It might be financial hardship/bankruptcy to pay the treatment bill for yourself or a family member. It might be the loss of your job because you are sick, or the business was shut down.

If you are the caretaker, you may need to leave your job and income to care for a loved one.
It might be long lasting physical health care problems, such as stroke, blood clots, amputation, lung damage/failure, kidney failure, heart damage to name just a few effects.

You might be a single parent who moved to a new city/state with your child/children for a new job, be exposed to COVID-19 and now what do you do? You may not be eligible for your company health insurance because you have not worked there long enough.

We had many remarkable submissions, & I am honored to continue this long-standing tradition even w/ the COVID-19 outbreak.

This week, we honor the sacrifices and memories of hundreds of thousands of American service members who have fought and died for our freedoms.
One of those heroes is U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Alexander W. Conrad, of Chandler, who died in Somalia in 2018. #AZ05

Sgt. Conrad died from injuries sustained from indirect enemy fire, while assigned to the 1st Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group, in support of Operation Octave Shield.
I had the privilege of talking to his father, Roy, about his son's service. Watch a preview of our discussion (to be released tomorrow) about how Sgt. Conrad's service lives on.
The movement to reopen our economy and society is gaining momentum inside of Arizona - especially within #AZ05.
Last night, @GilbertYourTown Councilmembers @ijaredtaylor and Aimee Yentes sent an open letter to Mayor Daniels, Town Manager Patrick Banger, and Town Attorney Chris Payne regarding six recommendations on how we should respond to the current COVID crisis in Gilbert, AZ.
@GilbertYourTown @ijaredtaylor Last week, @cityofchandler @chandlerazmayor and the City Council crafted a letter to Governor Ducey, asking for more flexibility in the Executive Order.
