"I really think that we are going to have no other choice, Laura, except to take Speaker Johnson to court if he refuses to respond to us, if he doesn't quickly swear in Adelita Grijalva, again depriving her of the ability to help her constituents, said Mayes: We've had some flooding out here in Arizona. She has no way to help those people in southern Arizona who have been impacted by that flooding."
"So many other things that she can and should be doing as an elected member of Congress, and so if I have to, I'll take him to court. You know, again, there's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. No other reason that I can think of except that perhaps she's the final vote to discharge the Epstein files"
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes threatened legal action against House Speaker Mike Johnson over his refusal to swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva nearly a month after her special election win. Mayes accused Johnson of holding Arizona hostage to prevent release of government files related to Jeffrey Epstein and demanded immediate swearing-in in a letter. Grijalva received office keys but found no functioning phones, internet, or computers. Mayes cited constituent needs, including recent flooding relief, as reasons Grijalva must be seated. Johnson denies the motivation; Mayes says she will sue if the delay continues.
