Biography
Juan Ciscomani is the Republican U.S. Representative for Arizona's 6th Congressional District and lost re-election on November 3, 2026 to JoAnna Mendoza. His term ends January 3, 2027. First elected in 2022, he was born in Mexico and raised in Tucson, worked at the University of Arizona and the Tucson Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, and was a senior advisor to Gov. Doug Ducey before running for Congress.[1][2][3][4]
Basic profile — the most important sourced facts we found.
Ciscomani was born in Mexico and, according to his Ballotpedia survey, moved to Tucson, Arizona, with his parents at age 5. His official biography says his father worked as a bus driver.[2][3] He graduated from Rincon High School in Tucson, earned an associate degree from Pima Community College and a bachelor's degree from the University of Arizona in 2005, and says he was the first member of his family to graduate from college.[1][2][3]
Ciscomani worked for the University of Arizona and as membership director and vice president of outreach for the Tucson Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. He then joined Arizona Governor Doug Ducey's administration as a senior advisor and served as vice chair of the Arizona-Mexico Commission, focusing on international trade, border security and economic development.[1][3]
He was elected to the U.S. House in 2022, defeating Kirsten Engel 50.7 percent to 49.2 percent, and his official biography says he is the first naturalized American citizen from Mexico elected to the U.S. House from Arizona. He was re-elected in 2024 over Engel, 50.0 percent to 47.5 percent.[1][3] His committee assignments for 2025-2026 are Appropriations, including the Homeland Security subcommittee, where he is vice chair, and the National Security, Department of State and Related Programs subcommittee, and Veterans' Affairs.[1] His official biography says the Center for Effective Lawmaking and the Lugar Center and Georgetown's McCourt School Bipartisan Index named him the most bipartisan member of Arizona's House delegation during his first term. It also says he lives in Tucson with his wife, Laura, and their six children, and coaches a 5th- and 6th-grade flag football team.[3] He sought a third term in 2026.[1][2][3] He received 44.9% of the vote to JoAnna Mendoza's 52.9%, according to unofficial results reported by NBC News.[4]
