Activate 48 released this statement following Rep. Ruben Gallego’s announcement that he’s running for Senate:

“Arizona deserves a senator who will fight to represent its communities, not corporations, lobbyists, or other politicians. Activate 48 welcomes Rep. Ruben Gallego’s candidacy for the Senate because he has demonstrated his deep commitment to the people of Arizona, a requirement for anyone running for elected office.

“The Activate 48 coalition — led by movement-building, people-powered organizations LUCHA; Mi Familia Vota; Our Voice, Our Vote Arizona; and Chispa Arizona — looks forward to a Senate race focused on what we can do to improve the lives of everyday Arizonans. We are hopeful Rep. Gallego’s candidacy will contribute a progressive perspective to this important race.”
