Raúl Grijalva has announced he will retire after next potential term in a statement sent to KGUN 9.It is my honor and privilege to represent Southern Arizona over the past 22 years in Congress. I went into Congress to give a voice to our community that had been too often ignored or dismissed.
And part of that commitment is knowing when it's time to step aside. My work in Congress is not done yet, and I have every intention of using my final term to build on the hard fought wins we’ve had for the environment and Southern Arizona. But the time is right for me to get ready to pass the torch to the next generation.
