Meet Arizona Senator Mark Kelly
Kelly is a strong leader who commanded the Space Shuttle. He proudly served in the U.S. Navy. He is an American hero. Today, he filled American hero Senator John McCain’s seat.
McCain Was An American Hero
McCain is not only a war hero, but he also cast the deciding vote that saved millions of American’s health insurance protections just before he passed away. With the coronavirus pandemic raging across the country, his actions saved countless lives.
Kelly and Giffords Pay Their Respects
On Tuesday, Kelly and his wife Gabrielle Giffords paid their respects to McCain’s grave.
Afterward Kelly Tweeted, “This morning my family paid our respects to Senator John McCain as I prepare to be sworn in tomorrow. Senator McCain has been a hero of mine since I was a young pilot. He left a legacy of service to Arizona and country that can’t be matched, but that we should all strive towards.”

Kelly has a track record of putting people ahead of politics. He promises fight to protect healthcare and vote for coronavirus stimulus relief.
Vice President-elect Kamala Harris Tweeted, “Captain Mark Kelly has been a fearless leader his entire career. From the U.S. Navy to NASA and now the Senate—I know he will serve the people of Arizona with great honor and dignity. Welcome to the United States Senate, @SenMarkKelly!”
Barbara Malmet posted, “A seat from Arizona that was John McCain’s in the US Senate goes to @CaptMarkKelly today when he is sworn in. What a journey from space to serving his state. Surely, America is better for it.”
Bye Martha!
Most Americans were happy to see Trump toady Martha McSally go. McSally voted to take away healthcare protections from millions.
In contrast, Kelly is ready to stand up for regular working folks. He has shown throughout his career that he has the right stuff.
Fun Fact: Democrats need to flip both Georgia Senate seats to remove Mitch McConnell as Majority Leader. This would allow people to have coronavirus stimulus relief. Consider showing your support by sharing posts from Jon Ossoff and Reverend Raphael Warnock for Georgia.
