WHY WE SHOW UP
Arizona’s 8th Congressional District–including Peoria, Glendale, Surprise, Sun City, Anthem, and North Phoenix–is ground zero for MAGA extremism. Rep. Abe Hamadeh enables authoritarian attacks on our democracy, our freedoms, and our communities. MAGA-run school boards are eliminating fairness and freedom for our children. We won’t sit back and watch.
Almost 10,000 of us peacefully took to the streets for No Kings in 2026, with thousands standing along Bell Rd.
And we’re just getting started.
We organize. We protest. We fight for a future where Arizona stands for truth, justice, and equality.
