Why Doesn’t Juan Ciscomani Care About Protecting Jobs in His District?

After refusing to draw “any red lines,” Juan Ciscomani voted in lockstep with Republican Party leaders to eliminate “lifechanging” jobs, worsen air quality, and hike energy bills for families in his own district – all to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

Analysts are “adamant” that Ciscomani and House Republicans’ Tax Scam would have “devastating consequences for… manufacturing projects and jobs, air quality, and electricity prices” in Arizona. Employers like Lucid Motors in Ciscomani’s district, which has “quadrupled” their footprint in Arizona in recent years, could lay off workers if Ciscomani’s plan becomes law.

DCCC Spokesperson Lindsay Reilly:
“Juan Ciscomani cast the deciding vote to sacrifice thousands of high-paying jobs in his own district to fund permanent tax cuts for out-of-state billionaires. Arizonans aren’t going to forget this betrayal and will hold Ciscomani accountable in 2026.”

Arizona Republic: GOP bill would gut clean energy manufacturing in Arizona, analysts and advocates say

• A long list of analysts and advocates are adamant that it would have devastating consequences for clean energy progress, related manufacturing projects and jobs, air quality and electricity prices in Arizona — all while adding between $3.3 trillion and $5.2 trillion to the federal debt.
• In Arizona specifically, which has benefited more than most states from clean energy investments … the cuts would jeopardize more than 25,000 solar and EV manufacturing and construction jobs and add nearly $160 to average annual household energy costs by 2035, according to the nonpartisan energy and climate policy think tank’s report.
• 19 of the 22 Arizona projects that have received clean energy tax credits [are] located in Republican districts.
• Recent polling shows 70% of Americans do not want these clean energy tax credits to be repealed.
• Arizona industries engaged in solar panel installation, electric vehicle battery manufacturing and other efforts to clean up air pollution caused by the transportation and electricity generation sectors would be “revising their projections downward, I’m sure.”
