Tucson, Ariz. -- Gabrielle Giffords’ Cactus Roots team is stronger than ever. Giffords for Congress today released Seniors for Giffords. This web video features Southern Arizona seniors testifying about their support for Gabrielle.

Gabriele Giffords fights for Southern Arizona seniors. She is a champion for our veterans and military families. She has promised to protect Social Security, while her opponents want to privatize it or, in the words of one of them, “phase it out.”

Gabrielle Giffords is a third generation Southern Arizonan and the only military spouse in Congress. Gabrielle is not like other politicians. She’s voted against a Congressional pay raise every time one has come up, and she doesn’t make earmark requests for campaign contributors. She takes an independent view on the issues and was rated Arizona’s most moderate member of Congress by the National Journal in 2009. Most importantly, Gabrielle stands up for Southern Arizona by working across the aisle to secure the border, protect our servicemen and veterans and create jobs by investing in solar energy.
