Meet Ruben

Ruben Gallego is the son of immigrants who was raised by a single mom on a secretary’s pay alongside his three sisters. Growing up, he worked whatever job he could find to help support his family— at a pizza joint, construction sites, and a meatpacking plant — before earning a spot at Harvard. Ruben deployed to Iraq in 2005 where his company saw some of the highest casualties of the war. A Marine combat veteran, Ruben was elected to the Arizona State House in 2010 and the U.S. House in 2014 where he has served as a voice for Arizona’s veterans, hardworking families, and seniors for over a decade. Ruben is married and lives in South Phoenix with his wife Sydney, son Michael and daughter Isla.

Early Years

Ruben can trace his drive to succeed to the first night he slept on the living room floor in the apartment his mother got for the family after his father left. Lying there, he remembers thinking that he needed to fight for a better life for himself and his family. From that day forward, he set out to change things, taking whatever job he could find to help support his family and work his way to a better life.

College

After high school, Ruben earned a spot at Harvard, where he cleaned his peers’ bathrooms and stacked books at the library to afford school supplies. 

Military Service

Military Service

Ruben deployed to Iraq as a United States Marine Infantryman in 2005 where his company saw some of the hardest combat and the heaviest casualties of the Iraq War, losing 22 Marines and a Navy Corpsman in eight months.

Public Service

Public Service

Ruben's military service motivated him to seek a life of continued service, where he has worked tirelessly to ensure that members of the military are never again sent into harm's way without a plan for winning the fight and caring for our servicemembers when they return home. Ruben got his start in politics working on ballot initiatives to preserve Arizonans’ rights and freedoms before serving the City of Phoenix, then being elected to the Arizona State House, and later going to the United States House of Representatives, where he has proudly served his Maricopa County community for a decade.

Priorities

In the years since Ruben served our country in combat as a Marine, he has dedicated his life to public service — working to make life better for hardworking Arizona families.

As a Congressman, he’s made that clear. Ruben has stood up and advocated for Arizona values at every turn. In the House, Ruben is particularly proud of the work he has done to increase access to health care, cut costs of everything from gas to groceries, defend democracy in the face of relentless far-right challenges, strengthen our national security through his role as the Chair of the Intelligence and Special Operations Subcommittee of the House Armed Services Committee, and bring federal funding and jobs home to Arizona.

Now, Ruben is running for Senate because Arizona is at a crossroads. Protecting abortion access, housing affordability, our water supply — there is so much at stake. In the Senate, he will continue to bring people together to support Arizona families in every corner of our state — from Douglas and Parker to Phoenix and our 22 federally recognized tribes.
