Great to spend a bit of time in the town of Catalina, where I had to stop into Bubb's Grub for some brisket and the best BBQ sauce on the planet before knocking a few streets over. #Catalina #LD17 #DriveAcrossTheDistrict

I kept circling the mountains until I hit Oro Valley, Stop 8, where I stopped for some drinks and snacks at Baggin's. I'll never get over those Pusch Ridge views! #OroValley #LD17 #DriveAcrossTheDistrict

Who has two thumbs, grabbed a cool drink at Nico's, and visited Tangerine Sky Community Park? This candidate! #DoveMountain #LD17 #DriveAcrossTheDistrict

Picturesque Picture Rocks! This saguaro-studded area is always great to visit. Had a nice chat with a friendly voter - and a somewhat one-sided conversation with/from her very enthusiastic little dog! #PictureRocks #LD17 #DriveAcrossTheDistrict

What an incredible way to end the trip - to be welcomed by a group of supporters in Marana! We talked about the importance of doing the hard work needed to change our leaders and create a brighter future for Arizona. #Marana #LD17 #DriveAcrossTheDistrict

Yesterday, I completed my 11-stop, over-171-mile drive across Legislative District 17. It was a long day (about 12 hours), but I had a blast visiting the diverse areas of this gorgeous district, talking to voters, and stopping in to local businesses. More importantly, as

Well, after my #DriveAcrossTheDistrict on Friday, I started off in Vail and ended up in Marana again! It's a lot easier with separate trips and no mountain range... Yeah, it was warm out, but we've got volunteers all over #LD17 who show up to knock on doors no matter what!

On September 11th, we experienced a day of national tragedy. One we will #NeverForget. But we are resilient, and now 9/11 is our National Day of Service and Remembrance. We mourn those lost, honor those who have served, and pledge ourselves to service our community in a spirit

Crunch time! We are only 26 days away from ballots going out in the mail, and 52 days until Election Day! Want to feel like you did everything you could when it mattered most? This is your chance! Knocking doors and calling voters is so important: mobilize.us/ld17democrats/…

Great day in #TanqueVerde, #RitaRanch, and #Vail - from a canvass launch and knocking on doors in the morning, to visiting Micah Mountain High School for the @VailSchools Connections Day Fun Fest - got a snow cone! - then knocking on more doors (total of 100). #LD17

I'm angered and saddened to learn about another act of political violence directed at former President Trump. I'm grateful that he was not harmed, and thankful to the Secret Service for their quick response.

Happy #Constitution Day! With this document, the founders formalized the bold idea of the United States of America and created the most successful system of self-government the world has known, where "We the People" have the power to make change.

What a great start to the Education Weekend of Action! As a former 5th grade teacher, I'm not willing to settle for 51st(!) in the country. It is so important that we change our leadership in the state legislature so we can fully fund our schools and raise teacher pay. #LD17

Wonderful day in Oro Valley. Morning: A real neighborhood experience - knocking on doors and patronizing a lemonade stand! Afternoon: Stopped by Flavor of India (highly recommended!), then an energizing canvass launch and more doors. 6 weekends left..Let's go! #OroValley #LD17

I'm proud of the Active 20-30 Club of Tucson for hosting another successful Suicide Prevention and Awareness Golf Tournament to raise money for NAMISouthernArizona this weekend. We did an interview on KGUN 9 Morning Blend. You can still donate to NAMI at: namisa.org

Well, it was 107 degrees and windy yesterday, but that was never going to stop me (and our amazing volunteers) from getting out and knocking on doors! Talked to everyone from a U of A student to young families, to retirees, in #PictureRocks and #Marana yesterday. #LD17

New op-ed in today's Arizona Daily Star! Our state legislature needs to move away from extreme, divisive politics and get back to the work of public service. That's why I'm running. #LD17 tucson.com/opinion/column…

Monday, October 7th, is the last day to register to vote. Make your voice heard in this important election! Online with MVD-issued ID: servicearizona.com/VoterRegistrat… In-person at your local county office: azsos.gov/elections/abou…

About a month from Election Day... It may feel like a long slog, but we just have to do the same as this roadrunner I saw while canvassing today - put one foot in front of the other, and keep doing the work! #LD17
