'We have to come together,' says Congressman Juan Ciscomani

from The Gaggle: An Arizona politics podcast · host The Arizona Republic and azcentral.com

It didn’t take freshman Congressman Juan Ciscomani long to draw attention in Washington D.C.  The Republican who took over a Tucson-based seat from retired Democratic Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick, prominently threw his backing for the House speakership to Kevin McCarthy, when three of his fellow Arizona Republicans had misgivings. McCarthy rewarded Ciscomani’s loyalty with a coveted seat on the House Appropriations Committee.  It was only last year that Ciscomani made his first run for office, narrowly defeating former state Sen. Kirsten Engel to win a seat in the House of Representatives. Today on The Gaggle, Congressman Juan Ciscomani joins hosts Ron Hansen and Mary Jo Pitzl on Zoom to talk about the work he's doing in Congress.  Learn more about your ad choices.
