Greg Stanton
Arizona Congressman, U.S. House of Representatives
Greg Stanton is currently Representative for Arizona’s 9th congressional district, having entered the office in 2019.
Stanton served as mayor of Phoenix between 2012 and 2018, when he resigned to run for Congress. Under his mayoral leadership, Phoenix became the first U.S. city to end chronic homelessness among veterans, and Stanton’s H.E.R.O. initiative is emerging as an example for how to match veterans —especially post-9/11 vets —with local employers and good jobs. Stanton attended Marquette University on the Harry S. Truman Scholarship, and earned a law degree from the University of Michigan. Before he was elected mayor in 2011, Stanton served nine years on the City Council and as Arizona’s Deputy Attorney General. He and his wife, Nicole, who is a prominent local attorney, are both working parents of two young children.
