Ruben Gallego, a U.S. Congressman representing Arizona's 3rd district since 2015, has been active on social media discussing various issues and developments. He succeeded Ed Pastor in Congress and previously served in the Arizona House of Representatives from 2012 to 2014.
On February 10, 2025, Gallego addressed an unfolding situation at Scottsdale Airport. He stated: "My team and I are closely monitoring the developing situation at the Scottsdale Airport. We are still waiting to receive more details but we are grateful to all the first responders at the scene."
The following day, February 11, 2025, he expressed concerns about educational funding cuts during an interview with Univision Arizona. Gallego said: "Hablé con @UnivisionAZ sobre como la congelación de fondos por el presidente Trump pone en peligro la educación de niños en Arizona. Nuestros hijos merecen lo mejor—por eso estoy llamando a la administración para que protejan el programa Head Start."
Later that same day, Gallego announced his new roles within congressional committees. He tweeted: "Exciting news: I’ll be the Ranking Member on the Energy subcommittee, and a member of Water and Power along with National Parks. Arizona’s future depends on securing our water and energy. I’m ready to fight for solutions that keep our state thriving."
