Rep. Greg Stanton recently took to Twitter to share insights and express concerns on political issues and community events. His tweets focused on local engagements and critiques of federal policy decisions impacting state and local programs.

On April 4, 2025, Stanton tweeted about a town hall meeting in Mesa, Arizona, which he described as a "packed room" and encouraged followers to tune in for the event with Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes. The tweet was made available here.

Later on the same day, Stanton voiced his discontent with the Trump Administration's budget cuts affecting health departments. He stated, "The Trump Administration has slashed billions of dollars in funding for state & local health departments—everything from curbing the spread of bird flu to supporting Arizonans struggling with substance abuse." Stanton called on Secretary Kennedy to help reverse the cuts. This statement can be viewed here.

Further expressing concern over the administration's stance, Stanton noted, "The Trump Administration wants to claim FEMA is more concerned with climate change than responding to natural disasters? Emergency managers know the two are inseparable." He highlighted the importance of BRIC grants as resilience investments. This view was expressed here on the same day.
