Michele Peña REPRepublican

Michele Peña is an American politician. She is a Republican member of the Arizona House of Representatives elected to represent District 23 in 2022. Peña is a school volunteer, agricultural professional, and the daughter of an immigrant. She was raised in Yuma, Arizona. Peña lived in Tucson before returning to Yuma. In 2023, Peña sponsored a bill that would extend the expiration date of AA graded eggs in Arizona by six days. Arizona is one of two states with a limit of 24 days or less, which contributes to over $3 million of expired eggs being thrown out every year in the state. The bill became a source of controversy as it passed with a bipartisan (both for and against) 4-3 vote in the Arizona Senate.
