Rep. Greg Stanton, a U.S. Congressman from Arizona, recently posted a series of statements on his official Twitter account addressing local recognition events, the passing of a former state official, and U.S. military policy.

On January 13, 2026, Stanton highlighted the importance of community engagement in honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy by acknowledging local award recipients: “Tempe’s MLK Diversity Awards are a reminder that Dr. King’s legacy lives on through everyday action in our communities.

Big congratulations to this years winners, Ashley, Billie, Sreevarenya, Dr. Durden, Peer Solutions, and Team Rubicon.”

Later that same day, Stanton expressed condolences following the death of former Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich: “I’m saddened to hear former Attorney General Mark Brnovich passed. He led an honorable career in public service. Against tremendous political pressure, one of his final acts in office was to stand up against untrue claims of voter fraud in Arizona. My prayers are with his loved” (January 13, 2026).

On January 14, 2026, Stanton addressed foreign policy concerns regarding NATO: “American troops and tax dollars should not be used to invade any NATO member country or territory, including Greenland.”

Stanton has served as U.S. Representative for Arizona since defeating Kelly Cooper in both the 2022 and 2024 general elections—winning by margins of approximately 56% to 43% and 52.7% to 45.5%, respectively.
