Rep. Greg Stanton, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Arizona’s 4th district, has recently taken to social media to express his views on several pressing issues. Stanton, who replaced Kyrsten Sinema in 2019 and holds a law degree from the University of Arizona, addressed topics ranging from constitutional interpretation to national governance and data privacy.

On February 5, Rep. Greg Stanton commented on the authority of the presidency regarding constitutional laws. He stated: "Good. The presidency does not come with the authority to unilaterally rewrite our laws and the U.S. Constitution. The 14th Amendment is clear: If you're born in America, you're an American."

Later that day, Stanton highlighted a protest at the Capitol concerning former President Trump's actions against USAID and potential future actions against other government departments. He remarked: "Thousands rallied at the Capitol today to protest Trump's attack on USAID. But we know he's not stopping there—he's going after the Department of Education next. He wants no checks & balances on his illegal actions. This is a dangerous move towards authoritarianism in the U.S."

On February 7, Stanton addressed concerns about data privacy involving Elon Musk and DOGE, sharing insights from conversations with constituents in Arizona: "1/ Today I spoke to a few of the hundreds of Arizonans who’ve called my office outraged that Elon Musk & DOGE are rummaging around their sensitive personal data."
