Corporate cash. Broken promises. A record that doesn't add up.
He talks about working families. His donor list tells a different story. 29% from PACs. 6% from small donors. Who is he really working for?
His #1 industry donor. His wife Nicole was General Counsel of Trulieve — the nation's largest cannabis company.
Just 6% from small donors under $200. Nearly 5x more from PACs. Funded by organizations, not voters.
A "grassroots" PAC from a congressman who gets 6% from grassroots donors.
Mayor of Phoenix, 2012–2018. Broken promises, gutted police, rising homelessness. He didn't fix it — he left.

"He focused on all of the minor issues that look glitzy while he ignored those, such as public safety, that are central to a vibrant city."— Ken Crane, President, Phoenix Law Enforcement Association (PLEA)
October 2018, 8:40 PM. A man with a hatchet robbed Stanton outside a Phoenix restaurant. Suspect never found. The same downtown he left understaffed.
"How ironic that the man who helped run Phoenix into the ground by not advocating for sufficient police staffing is now a victim of that choice?"— Phoenix Law Enforcement Association (PLEA), official statement, 2018
Promised to repeal Phoenix's food tax by April 2013. Kept the tax. Councilman DiCiccio: "It was the only pledge the Mayor made."

Seven years. 3 bills enacted — including post office renamings. Heritage Action score: 5%.
"I will always put Arizona first."— Greg Stanton, 2018 Campaign Trail
Voted NO on the Secure the Border Act. NO on ICE funding. Called for DHS Secretary's impeachment. In a border state.
Voted to end qualified immunity for officers. Gutted police staffing in Phoenix, then went to Congress to make their jobs harder.
His most recent legislative achievement? Naming a post office.
"I could not vote to fund a paramilitary-style mass deportation operation."— Rep. Greg Stanton, explaining his NO vote on ICE funding, January 2026
"Masked agents are acting in ways that are illegal & dangerously escalatory, threatening the safety of our communities."— Rep. Greg Stanton on federal immigration enforcement agents, 2026
Promises to repeal the food tax and invest in public safety.
Keeps the food tax. DiCiccio: the money could have hired 350 police officers.
3,388 → 2,772 officers. 15-year low. 911 times past 7 minutes.
Robbed at hatchet-point. Suspect never found. PLEA: he's now a victim of his own choices.
Impeaches Trump twice. Ends qualified immunity. Wife joins Trulieve Cannabis. Net worth: $878K → $2M.
Moves from AZ-09 to the safer AZ-04. Follows the lines, not the community.
Among the first to call for Biden to step aside. Self-preservation — a pattern.
Votes NO on ICE. Calls for DHS impeachment. 3 bills in 7 years. Heritage Action: 5%.
The evidence is public. The record is clear. It's time to close this case.
