On April 5th, 2025, Gallego addressed fiscal policy concerns regarding proposed tax benefits for wealthy individuals. He highlighted the potential repercussions for essential public services. "BREAKING: Right now Republicans are moving forward on their efforts to give billionaires a $4.6 trillion handout—paid for by cuts to Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and SNAP. Arizonans can’t afford to foot the bill for Elon and his cronies, and they shouldn’t have to."
