Greg Stanton, a U.S. Congressman representing Arizona's 4th District since 2019, recently addressed several pressing issues via social media. Stanton, who succeeded Kyrsten Sinema in Congress and resides in Phoenix, has been vocal about health care and international politics.

On February 18, 2025, Stanton shared a link for further information on an unspecified topic. He invited followers to "Learn more https://t.co/ZTppLAWcc2".

The following day, February 19, 2025, he expressed concern over proposed funding cuts to Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), noting that "28% of children in #AZ04 rely on Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) for health care coverage." He criticized House Republicans for attempting to reduce funding to finance tax breaks for billionaires and committed to opposing any measures that could harm health services.

Later that same day, Stanton commented on international affairs by refuting claims regarding Ukraine's involvement in initiating conflict. He stated that it is "a shocking lie to say Zelenskyy started this war," asserting that peace existed before Russia's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine. Stanton labeled Putin as a "brutal thug" with intentions to disrupt Europe's post-World War II order and warned against accepting Kremlin propaganda.
