U.S., Arizona and East Valley Chambers endorse Greg Stanton
Seven Major Business Organizations Endorse Stanton, Citing His Record on Small Business, Infrastructure, Trade and Arizona’s Economic Growth
CHANDLER, AZ -- Greg Stanton for Congress today announced endorsements from seven leading business organizations: the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Arizona Chamber of Commerce & Industry, the Mesa, Tempe and Chandler Chambers of Commerce, the Arizona Asian Chamber of Commerce, and the Black Chamber of Arizona.
Representatives from the Chandler, Arizona and U.S. Chambers joined Stanton and local business leaders to announce the endorsement at a local business, Cien Agaves Tacos in Chandler.
The endorsements bring together national, statewide and local business leaders behind Stanton’s re-election and reflect strong support for his work across party lines to strengthen Arizona’s economy, invest in infrastructure, support small businesses and protect Arizona employers and consumers from higher costs caused by tariffs.
“Arizona businesses need leaders who are willing to work across the aisle to get things done, and Congressman Greg Stanton has built that record in Congress,” said Jennings Imel, Vice President of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. “From major infrastructure investments to standing up for small businesses, Congressman Stanton understands that employers need certainty to invest, compete, and create jobs. The U.S. Chamber appreciates Congressman Stanton’s leadership and is proud to endorse his reelection to Arizona’s 4th congressional district.”
“Congressman Greg Stanton has been a thoughtful, accessible, and effective advocate for Arizona’s business community. He understands what it takes to keep our state competitive, attract investment, and create good-paying jobs. Just as importantly, he listens to the concerns of Arizona job creators and is willing to work across party lines to get things done on issues as varied as international trade, transportation and infrastructure, and permitting reform. We appreciate his commitment to the state’s economic success and look forward to continuing to work with him on the issues that matter most to Arizona employers,” said Danny Seiden, President and CEO, Arizona Chamber of Commerce & Industry.
“Congressman Stanton has been a strong advocate for Arizona’s business community, consistently working to support policies that help local businesses grow, create jobs, and strengthen our regional economy. His commitment to listening to employers and championing opportunities for small businesses has made a meaningful difference for entrepreneurs across our community,” said Terri Kimble, President and CEO of the Chandler Chamber of Commerce.
“Greg Stanton doesn’t just talk about supporting the East Valley. He knows our businesses, listens to our employers and delivers,” said Sally Harrison, President and CEO of the Mesa Chamber of Commerce. “Mesa’s continued growth depends on modern transportation, reliable infrastructure and a federal partner who understands what our local businesses need. Greg has been that partner.”
“Tempe succeeds because we embrace innovation, invest in our community and create an environment where entrepreneurs and established employers alike can thrive,” said Robin Arredondo-Savage, President and CEO of the Tempe Chamber of Commerce. “Greg Stanton shares that approach. His work on infrastructure and transportation and his commitment to staying connected to the businesses he represents have made him an important partner for Tempe.”
“Small businesses are the backbone of Arizona’s economy, and I’m proud to have the support of the organizations that represent the people who take risks, create jobs and keep our communities growing,” said Stanton. “I’ve worked with Republicans and Democrats to deliver the infrastructure Arizona needs to compete, bring major new investments and good-paying jobs to our state, and fight back against reckless tariffs that raise costs on Arizona businesses and families. I’ll keep working with our business community to lower costs, create good jobs and make Arizona the best place in America to start and grow a business.”
Stanton has made protecting Arizona businesses from higher tariffs a major focus in Congress. He introduced the RELIEF Act to provide automatic refunds to small and independent businesses that paid tariffs imposed under emergency authorities and has pushed to restore Congress’ constitutional authority over tariffs. During his first term, Stanton also worked across the aisle and with the Trump administration to pass the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement, strengthening trade relationships critical to Arizona businesses and the state’s economy.
As the only Arizonan serving on the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, Stanton helped pass the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and has fought to bring those investments home to Arizona. The law has delivered major investments in highways, bridges, public transportation, airports and water infrastructure across the state, including federal funding to expand Interstate 10.
Stanton also helped pass the bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act, strengthening domestic semiconductor manufacturing and helping position Arizona at the center of America’s advanced-manufacturing economy. Arizona has since attracted tens of billions of dollars in semiconductor investment and thousands of new jobs.
Stanton’s record of delivering results has earned national recognition. In 2025, the Center for Effective Lawmaking named him the most effective Democratic member of the House on transportation policy.
