Rep. Greg Stanton, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Arizona's 4th district, has been actively sharing updates on his legislative activities and community engagements through social media. His recent posts highlight significant developments in veterans' healthcare, educational policy advocacy, and recognition of local heroes.

On November 19, 2024, Rep. Stanton announced his support for the "21st Century Veterans Healthcare & Benefits Improvement Act," stating: "Tonight I proudly voted to pass the 21st Century Veterans Healthcare & Benefits Improvement Act." He emphasized that the bill would allow elderly and disabled veterans to age at home, provide communities with enhanced tools to combat veteran homelessness, and improve state and Tribal outreach regarding VA benefits.

Later that day, he shared a lighter moment from his office visit by young advocates: "Today I had a small but powerful group of lobbyists come by my office with a big policy on their mind: one full hour of recess at school. They have my full support." This reflects his engagement with constituents advocating for extended recess time in schools.

On November 20, 2024, Rep. Stanton highlighted an event honoring two local heroes from his district: "Pleasure to meet with Captain Jason Henry and Antoine Berenger, two heroes in our district who sprung into action to save a man who suffered cardiac arrest while driving." The individuals were recognized as Stars of Life honorees at an American Ambulance Association ceremony in Washington.
