Congressman Greg Stanton is a proven champion for Arizona families. As Mayor of Phoenix from 2012–2018, he didn’t just manage growth, he reshaped the city’s economy around innovation and trade, creating thousands of quality jobs and driving some of the strongest wage growth in the nation.
In his work for the city, he forged bipartisan coalitions to deliver major investments in bioscience and higher education, supported small businesses, and earned national recognition for Phoenix’s leadership on LGBTQ+ equality. He also won voters’ support for his bold public transportation plan, securing funding to massively expand light rail, speed up bus service, and modernize thousands of miles of roadways in the decades to come.
