Thats not the kind of person I want to vote for

 @9RH5Y2NIndependent from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

His lack of support for gender affirming care and not discriminating against LGBT

 @9RFR2K3Democrat from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

Mark Lamb is fine, just not my cup of tea. Ask me why I wouldn't vote for Kari Lake if you want a real reaction out of me.

 @9RFDH9Z from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

He is pro-life, pro-gun and pro Trump

 @9RDKF69 from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

Pro life GOP

 @9RCCF5H from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

supported Trump during the insurrection and blamed other irrelevant causes. Also supported Stop the Steal.

 @9RBJRKJ from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

He’s republican

 @9RB6JBG from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

Not my favorite

 @9R9XVBQ from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

He is not as well rounded as other candidates and focuses mainly on the border control issues

 @9R6PZS7 from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

Abortion rights

 @9R63XH2 from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

He’s more of a TV personality and we need less of that in politics. His support of officers such as Frank Sloup who has a negative history in other police departments and shows an abrasive personality towards the public is concerning as well.

 @9R52ZM9 from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

no experience

 @9R4C6GV from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

not for me

 @9QZ4LT6Progressive from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

He’s a POS

 @9QY3PD4  from Arizona  answered…6mos6MO

I don't agree with him on anything.

 @9PJ4GS9 from Arizona  answered…7mos7MO

I don't think he can win and I'm tired of Democrats in control.

 @LucidKarmaIndependent  from Arizona  answered…7mos7MO

Too religious and anti-immigrant

 @9M57PPH from Arizona  answered…9mos9MO

Defense Bill Blocks Transgender Care To Minors

The Senate on Wednesday gave final approval to a defense policy bill directing $895 billion toward the Pentagon and other military activities, moving over the objections of some Democrats who opposed a provision added late in the negotiations that would deny coverage for transgender health procedures for minors.The 85-to-14 vote, coming a week after a divided House passed the same measure, cleared the bill for President Biden’s signature.Most Republicans and many Democrats supported the measure, which provides a 14.5 percent pay raise to junior enlisted service members and a 4.5 percent pay raise for all other service members. It also expands access to meal assistance, housing and child care programs that benefit those in uniform.But several Democrats withheld their backing in protest of a provision preventing TRICARE, the military’s health care plan for service members, from covering “medical interventions for the treatment of gender dysphoria that could result in sterilization” for children under 18.The language, which would affect the gender-transitioning children of service members, was recently added to the measure at the insistence of Speaker Mike Johnson, Republican of Louisiana, who refused to bring a defense bill to the House floor without it, according to aides familiar with the negotiations.Twenty-one Democrats, led by Senator Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin, proposed an amendment to strip the provision from the bill, but the matter was never brought to a vote. Several of them took to the floor on Tuesday to lodge their objections.“It’s flat-out wrong to put this provision in this bill and take away a service member’s freedom to make that decision for their families,” Ms. Baldwin said, estimating that the provision could negatively affect as many as 6,000 to 7,000 military families.

Biden Clears Student Debt for 150,000

The Biden administration announced a new round of student loan forgiveness on Monday, extending relief to an additional 150,000 borrowers and bringing the total number of beneficiaries during Biden's term to over 5 million. The latest wave of debt relief targets three specific groups: 85,000 people who were defrauded by their educational institutions, 61,000 borrowers with permanent or total disabilities, and 6,100 public service workers.The total cost of student loan forgiveness under the Biden administration has now reached $183.6 billion. This record-breaking amount of relief was achieved through significant reforms to both the Borrower Defense program and the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program. The PSLF program alone has helped over 1 million borrowers during Biden's term, compared to just 7,000 before his administration.Education Secretary Miguel Cardona emphasized the administration's commitment to making the system more accountable to both students and taxpayers. Under Secretary of Education James Kvaal highlighted how the program has helped various groups, including public servants, disabled individuals, those defrauded by their colleges, and long-term borrowers who have made payments for decades.The announcement comes as the administration prepares for the transition to President-elect Trump, with officials noting that federal efforts on student loan relief are likely to slow down after the change in leadership. While the administration celebrated reaching this milestone of helping 5 million borrowers, officials declined to specify whether additional relief would be announced before Biden leaves office next week.The program represents a fulfillment of Biden's campaign promise to address issues in the student loan system, with Cardona noting that the achievement surpasses that of any previous administration in history.

Harris Snubs Vance Family At VP Mansion

When JD Vance, his wife Usha and their three young children move into the Naval Observatory residence on Jan. 20, it will be their first time inside the white Queen Anne-style mansion that has been home to vice presidents since the 1970s.Vice President Kamala Harris has not extended an invitation for a formal sit-down or tour, multiple Democratic and Republican sources told CBS News.In November, Usha Vance, via intermediaries, reached out to staff for the home's current occupants, Harris and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, seeking details including what they would need to childproof it. Ewan, Vivek and Mirabel Vance are all under the age of eight.The questions were initially rebuffed by a Harris political appointee. But there has since been communication between the Vance team and Navy aides who oversee the residence. Before Christmas, Navy officials provided an overview of the house to discuss the layout of the residence, logistics and practicalities of the move-in, and to help answer any questions the Vances had, a person familiar with the call said.Usha Vance spoke with Emhoff for about 40 minutes last week, sources said. Harris sources said that arrangements are underway to accommodate the Vance children.Spokespeople for Vance and Harris declined to comment. But people close to Harris say she was never afforded an opportunity to visit the home before she was sworn in in 2021. However, she took office during the COVID outbreak, just after the Capitol riot — and Donald Trump had refused to admit he had been defeated in the election.Advisers to then-Vice President Mike Pence dispute that an invitation was never offered. They say he quietly gave Harris and Emhoff a chance to visit in the waning days of the Trump administration. The invitation came discreetly because Trump resisted accommodating the incoming administration. No formal sit-down between Pence and Harris ever took place, Democratic and Republican sources said. People close to Harris defended her decision not to invite Vance to visit, a tradition that was broken during the Trump-Pence administration. Harris' team has been focused on an overseas trip that was canceled and on the California wildfires.In 2016, then-Vice President Biden and his wife Jill hosted the Pences at the Northwest Washington residence not long after the election.
