AZ Sen Mitzi Epstein
AZ State Senator- Ahwatukee, Chandler, Tempe; Our survival, and quality of life depend on making decisions based on truth. Science is based on observations and data, not on generalizations. Let’s learn more about it, and use it more rigorously in politics
- Reposted by AZ Sen Mitzi EpsteinI flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers. I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.
- Democrats are fighting for working families, for seniors, for students, For You. We want an Arizona We Can Afford, not someday, but now. How? -Our priorities this legislative session are to 👩🎓🧑🎓invest in public education, 🛑fight corporate greed, and 🚑 make healthcare affordable.
- In AZ many big corporations pay only the min income tax, $50. They get so many loopholes that they do not pay for the benefits they use -public roads, public safety, public education. Talarico tells the truth. The biggest welfare queens are big corporate freeloaders fortune.com/2025/12/20/j...
- What do you think about enacting a state law to ban corporations from spending money on elections? Most Americans have never agreed with the SCOTUS overreach of “Citizens United.” Polls now show 75% of Americans would overturn Citizens United. open.substack.com/pub/robertre...
- 🇺🇸Democracy is worth fighting for. Rules allow GOP Pres Petersen to appoint every person who serves on a committee in the AZ Senate. Denying the Minority Leader’s choices for appointees- that is legal, and a Lousy Way to govern. It is the opposite of custom and practice in the state legislature.
- Yes. That is the relevant pairing. Trump gives away billions to Argentina and lets Americans starve. 👇 If Trump can find an extra $20 billion for the people of Argentina, he should be able to do more than a paltry $6 billion for hungry children in the USA.
- Republicans in Congress are in control of the House, Senate, & Presidency. GOP in Congress are to blame for this shut-down of funding for food for children. AZ Senate Dems call on the USDA ( Dept of Agriculture) Secretary to use reserves to avoid famine in AZ for those in need

- Rally organizers say: “Speaker Johnson is running out of excuses for keeping the gov shut down. Instead of preserving affordable healthcare, or lowering costs for working families, he’s attacking millions of Americans who” Peacefully say ❤️🇺🇸 America belongs to its people, not to kings.” 🇺🇸 ❤️

- Reposted by AZ Sen Mitzi EpsteinGovernment shutdown Day 3: #Arizona Chamber sides with #GOP as Congress digs in its heels azcentral.com/story/news/p... The AZ Chamber of Commerce, along with the #AZGOP don't want to negotiate. They want to deny Arizonans health care.
- Reposted by AZ Sen Mitzi EpsteinRemember: Undocumented immigrants pay billions of dollars in taxes every year. They pay into government funded healthcare programs, but can't access them except in case of emergency. Emergency Medicaid spending accounted for less than 1% of total Medicaid spending in 2023.

- To provide quality education, affordable housing /childcare/ healthcare, we need tax systems that are fair and adequate. Billionaires and big corporations should pay what they owe for the public roads, schools, etc that led to their profits. Join us SUNDAY in person for a robust conversation!!

- It’s gaslighting. Billionaires want us to think our neighbors are the problem, but the problem is the billionaires. Billionaires want to end public schools so they can make huge profits on private education. Billionaires push for private profits, not problem-solving. #StopBillsForBillionaires
- This is why I like the Bluesky community so much! Windfarms! ❤️😁
- Reposted by AZ Sen Mitzi EpsteinTrees, trees and more trees. The #goodnews is tree planting in England hits a 20 year high. This milestone is part of larger nationwide goal to increase woodland cover to 16.5% of England’s total land area by 2050. Nice. 🌳 Have a good day Bluesky friends.
- Reposted by AZ Sen Mitzi EpsteinEvery cut to funding, spending, staffing, etc. just remember to look at ICE's budget. The money is there, but only for this regime's manifestation of hate. Dig into the companies getting contracts for these massive tent concentration camps. The regime is willing to do whatever to fund evil

- Important read: ICE Job Fair- Every generation has its people longing to fight. They do not think “War is hell.” On the one hand, we think we need them to defend the USA when we are attacked. But most immigrants are not attacking us. They are working hard and making life better for all of us.
- TRUTH! Amazon workers deserve better.

- Did US Congress GOP push states to pay more for essential programs like Medicaid & SNAP costs? 🐘 GOP Playbook: Fed GOP cuts taxes for the rich and makes states pay more. State GOP cuts taxes for the rich and makes cities pay more. Tell your US Rep: stop passing the buck! Please
- I know friends and relatives who voted for this POTUS47. None of them voted for people to be hit by hurricanes without enough warning.
- The 💰 Money Vs The MANY!😊 The Diamondbacks & AZ Chamber of Commerce spent money on emails, a slick website, and robocalls - urging Arizonans to tell us to vote yes on the 😡Billionaire Baseball Boondoggle. The result: a handful of season-ticket holders called my office. it is highly disliked!🧵…
- PRESSURE/NO PRESSURE: Dbacks call on fans to "help us keep the Dbacks in Arizona" as State Senators ready to vote. Billionaire Kendrick, AZ Chamber unleash robocalls on primary opponents Senators @mitziepstein.bsky.social and Lauren Kuby. READ more: tinyurl.com/AZsPolitics2...
- Meanwhile, I literally spent the cost of used crayons and used poster board To show how the “Diamondbacks debacle” would work. I walked around, talking with small groups Saturday (among thousands) and NOBODY wants this deal! 1 woman said “I am a season ticket holder and that tax deal is BAD!”
- Over 660 people have responded to my 1- question survey. 98% say, “No!” Their comments include: “Our communities are struggling. Support us, not the billionaires.” “A middle class family cannot afford to attend a game. We should not have to pay for them!”

- A little reminder to NOT trust the AI answers presented in a Google search. 😱😱😱. To get to truth, you have to read much more than the AI summary
- Hopefully these videos will lead to prosecution of these agents. It seems that they did Not have a search warrant but forced / harassed their way in. What kind of monster tells a woman in handcuffs who is crying that she is “resisting?”

- I visited the Scottsdale Training And Rehabilitation Services, a community center that “Enhances The Lives Of Individuals With Cognitive & Developmental Disabilities By Creating employment, opportunities, skills, and smiles” 😊 DDD programs like this provide a good ROI for all Arizonans.
- Republicans in the US Senate verify: they are for the billionaires, not for us. Republican policies help the richest few get wildly richer 😡 and the middle class pays. Watch the GOP *Require* tax cuts for billionaires. www.instagram.com/reel/DGWcEIr...
- No Rep Fine, you are wrong. 🇺🇸 the USA must remain a sanctuary for freedom of speech, 🇺🇸 US students and foreign students can learn from each other and colleges should help them to apply logic and evidence to sort truth from propaganda.
- Reposted by AZ Sen Mitzi Epstein“Trusting the experts is not a feature of science…it’s a feature of religion and totalitarianism…[it’s the duty of people] to do your own research and to make up your own mind”. There’s so much wrong with this messaging and it’s all designed to make every opinion equal, no matter how dumb.

- STOP bills for billionaires! #STOPbillionaireBailouts SB1096 would make taxpayers pay for a bullion depository for people who have so much gold they don't know what to do with it. I voted, NO. Every Republican voted yes. GOP motto: Middle class pays. Zillionaires receive.
