Rep. Greg Stanton, a U.S. Congressman who recently secured reelection in 2024 against Kelly Cooper, has raised concerns on social media about rising consumer prices and border security policies.
On November 16, 2025, Stanton commented on the impact of tariffs and their effect on holiday shopping, stating: “‘Tis the season… for higher prices. Companies have been hesitant to pass along the cost of tariffs to you, but that’s changing fast — prices for everything from toys to trees are soaring.

Stanton’s recent statements come after his electoral victory in 2024 over Kelly Cooper with a margin of 52.7% to 45.5%. In the previous cycle in 2022, he also defeated Cooper by a similar margin.
