Arizona has lost one of its greats. Alfredo Gutierrez devoted his life to forging a stronger community—a dedicated public servant, a steadfast advocate for the Latino community, and a mentor to many. His profound legacy, in politics and civil rights, will shape generations to come.
My deepest condolences to his wife Sharon and loved ones.

CEOs of AZ hospitals, large employers in the state, and critical component of AZ’s healthcare delivery system speak out against the State taxing hospitals $100M to offset other spending.
The House budget as introduced makes this $100M tax on hospitals permanent.
AZ Hospitals have been great partners to the state in helping fund coverage & access to care for Medicaid beneficiaries. The House budget takes advantage of our partnership and risks jeopardizing patient care.
"We understand the need for a balanced budget; however, targeted, ongoing taxation of hospitals for non-hospital spending is an inappropriate & counterproductive approach."

I’m bringing @NativeHealthPHX CEO Walter Murillo as my guest to President Trump’s Joint Address tonight. Native Health has served thousands of patients at their community health centers, and many of those patients rely on Medicaid to pay for their treatment.
The Republican cuts to Medicaid will be devastating for the patients they serve.
Jennifer Longdon retweeted
I'm proud to have @nativehealthphx CEO Walter Murillo as my guest for today's Joint Address to Congress. Nearly half of all patients Native Health serves rely on AHCCCS, Arizona's Medicaid system.
As the Trump administration pushes for major cuts to Medicaid, it's the most vulnerable Arizonans that will be hurt.

I just wrapped up a roundtable discussion with pediatricians & health care providers about the devastating impact of Republicans' proposed Medicaid cuts.
Half a million Arizonans could lose their health insurance, and our world-class hospitals would be hammered by higher costs of care.
All to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.
