Jeffry Lane Flake (born December 31, 1962) is an American politician who served as a junior American Senator from Arizona since 2013. He is a member of the Republican Party.
Flake grew up on a cattle ranch in Snowflake, Arizona, with ten siblings. The town is partly named for his great-grandfather, William J. Flake, who founded settlements in 1878; and Flake's father, Dean, served as mayor and as a pastor. Jeff Flake attended Brigham Young University (BYU), taking time off for the Mormon mission to Zimbabwe and South Africa, where he studied Afrikaans. He got two degrees from BYU - a B.A. in International Relations in 1986 and M.A. in Political Science in 1987 - and while there he also met Cheryl Bae, whom he married in 1985 and with whom he had five children.
After graduating from college, Flake worked briefly at a public relations firm in Washington, D.C., before returning to Africa to serve as executive director of the Foundation for Democracy in Namibia. In 1992, Flake returned to Arizona where he became executive director of the Goldwater Institute, a research institute and think tank aimed at promoting the Arizona senator's former ideals of limited governance, personal responsibility, and expanded freedom.
Flake was elected to the United States House of Representatives in 2000, where he will serve for 12 years. During his tenure, Flake earned a reputation as a budget eagle, serving as a member of the Committee on Allocation and summoning colleagues to channel cash towards earmarks. He also supports traditional conservative views with his opposition to same-sex marriage and abortion, but he also chooses to repeal Do not Ask Do not Say in the military and support the MIMPI (Development, Help and Education for Alien Minors) Act partly because of his childhood experiences with an immigrant worker in his family's ranch.
After six terms in the House of Representatives, Flake was elected to the United States Senate in 2012. He went on to serve on the Justice Committee, the Energy and Natural Resources Committee, the Special Committee for Aging, and the Committee on Foreign Relations, becoming chair of various subcommittees. Flake is also one of the bi-partisan "Gang Eight" that pushed through the Senate immigration-reform bill in 2013, and he has become vocal critic of President Donald Trump. Flake announced on October 24, 2017 that he will not seek re-election in 2018.

Kehidupan awal, pendidikan, dan karir awal
Jeffry Lane Flake was born in Snowflake, Arizona, son of Nerita (nÃÆ' Â © e Hock) and Dean Maeser Flake. His birthplace was named in part because of his great-grandfather, Mormon pioneer William J. Flake. Flake earned a B.A. in International Relations and M.A. in Political Science from Brigham Young University. He took a two-year sabbatical absence to serve as a volunteer Mormon missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in South Africa in the early 1980s and spoke Afrikaans. He worked in the public affairs sector after college and served as Executive Director of the Democracy Foundation in Namibia and the Executive Director of the Goldwater Institute before entering the House of Representatives. He opposed economic sanctions in South Africa in the 1980s, arguing that sanctions would endanger the black population who had already suffered under apartheid policy.

Selection
Flake was first elected to Congress in 2000 from what was then District 1, after President of power Matt Salmon resigned in honor of the self-imposed deadline. The district, which included most of the East Valley, was then re-numbered as the 6th district when Arizona won two Congressional seats due to the 2000 census. Flake easily defeated its main challenger.
During his campaign in 2000, Flake promised not to serve more than three terms in Congress that would meet him no later than January 2007. Shortly after being elected for the third time, Flake announced in early 2005 that he had changed his mind on plotting deadlines and planning to run again in 2006. "It was a mistake to limit my own requirements," Flake said.
In the same election, three of the five mayors in his home district are opposed to re-election because, according to Flake, he does not "carry pork expenses" to mayoral towns. In 2006, several Democrats had announced their intention to run but only one met the June submission deadline, and the application was rejected because it did not include the number of candidate signatures. "I do hope to have a major opponent.I deserve it," Flake said, referring to the limited-term promise he had violated. "With all the rights, I have to have an opponent.I'm just lucky, I think."
In the 2006 mid-term elections, Flake has no Democratic opposition and easily defeated Libertarian Party candidate Jason Blair, with 74% of the vote.

2012 selection
In February 2011, Flake announced that he was running for the US Senate seat vacated by Senate Minority Senate Jon Kyl in 2012. Flake easily won a Republican nomination against real estate entrepreneur Wil Cardon. He faces former general surgeon Richard Carmona, who is seeking an office for the first time in an election. In May 2012, Flake led Carmona by 13 points in the poll. In a poll in October 2012 by Public Policy Polling, Flake followed Carmona with two points. After the race was tightened, the Wall Street Journal criticized the controversial Flake ad which accused Carmona of having "problems with anger, with ethics, and with women." Flake is supported by the Casa Grande Dispatch , the United States Chamber of Commerce, the Senate Conservative Fund and the Club for Growth. Flake defeated Democrat Richard Carmona 49-46% on November 6, 2012. He won primarily on the power of bringing Maricopa County, home to Phoenix and 60 percent of the country's population, with 77,200 votes, more than the overall margin of 67,900 votes. He also benefited from Mitt Romney bringing the country by 10 points in the presidential election.

Flake replaces retired US Senator Jon Kyl on January 3, 2013.
2017 congressional Photos
Flake was on the pitch during training for the annual Congressional Baseball Game when the Congress baseball shoot took place on June 14, 2017. He said the participants like "sitting ducks" and the possibility of Capitol Police saving their lives:
Suddenly, we heard a very loud voice. Everyone thinks 'sounds like a gun'. The gunman ended with a third base break, with a clear view of the field and all the people on it. Many of us went into the dugout and tried to get as much as we could, but at that point, there was a shot behind us from security detail, Capitol Police, and I started shouting back, 'are you friendly?' - make sure that it is our people, because we do not know if there are other shooters who surround us, and come to the dugout.
Former President Obama summoned Flake that morning to convey his best wishes and prayers for the victims. Flake flew with Obama from Washington, D.C. to Arizona in 2011 after the current shooting-Congressman Gabrielle Giffords.
bipartisan sustainability journey
Flake used his six-day survival experience in the wild with Democratic Senators to develop ideas to end congestion in Washington. In 2014, Flake and US Senator Martin Heinrich (D-NM) are featured on the reality TV show Channel Discovery, Rival Survival, where they live on a small island in a small island nation for six days. Flake then joked during a speech at the National Press Club that sent both Senate leaders (Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid [D-NV] and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell [R-KY]) to a remote island together could reduce alignments and allow more legislation to move forward.

Political position
Budget and economy
Flake is a fiscally conservative, and a government waste critic and supporter reduces federal spending. He was described by Robert Novak's columnist as a "staunch reformer". Flake is a signatory of the Taxpayer Oath Protection and one of the eight members of the House to receive a 100% approval rating from the American Conservative Union. A "scourge of pork-barrel expenditure", Flake was ruled the least wasteful in Congress by Citizens Against Government Waste in July 2007 and designated as a "superhero taxpayer." In 2008, Flake voted against the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP).
Flake is "known for his zealous opposition to warnings." He has been called "anti-earmark crusader," and often challenges the features proposed by other congressmen. Since May 2006, he has become famous for "Flake Hour," a tradition at the end of a shopping bill debate in which he asked sponsors to come to the home floor and justify why taxpayers have to pay for their "favorite projects". He is credited with pushing the House rule changes to ask for earmark sponsors to identify themselves.
As of September 2010, Flake issued a press release listing "horrible ezarark this week" every Friday. Usually earmark will be followed by Flake making funny comments; for example, Rep. Flake once said about Hundred hundred $ 150,000 e-mail from Congressman Serrado to fix the pipeline at an Italian restaurant, "I think this is a cannoli, taxpayers do not want to bite." The release of "earmark of the week" ended and replaced with "So Just How Broke Are We?" series of releases. In March 2010, the House Allocation Committee adopted a rule to ban earmarks to non-profit companies, a Flake-backed change. "This is the best day we have," he told the New York Times, which reported that about 1,000 of the benefits were passed the previous year, valued at $ 1.7 billion.
Disaster help
In 2012, it was reported that Flake had at least five times opposed laws intended to prevent natural disasters and provide assistance to those harmed by natural disasters. In 2005, Flake was one of only 11 House representatives who voted against the bill providing additional emergency funds to deal with Hurricane Katrina's damage.
Environment
On December 2, 2014, the Senate passed the Bill Williams Water Rights Settlement Bill. The bill will put an end to the fight over water rights at the Bill Williams River basin in Arizona. Flake introduced the Senate version of the bill with Senator John McCain. The bill also assists the Hativeapai Native American, who use water from the watershed. The bill will limit the amount of water that can be used by local mining companies, and it will provide legal recognition of the rights of the tribe to the water source. At the DPR session on the bill in September 2014, where both the Hualapai tribe and the Freeport Mineral company testified, both the tribe and the company agreed that the bill would provide each, and other interests, with benefits. Settlement will guarantee water rights for the tribe; providing water for the Freeport mine in Baghdad, Arizona; and gives Arizona state a right to the property area to be used for conservation programs for several species. The Arizona Chamber of Commerce supports the law, saying, "Settlement of water rights claims is a priority in our country to provide long-term clarity and certainty to all water users in Arizona."
By 2014, the EPA announces that they will make some changes to federal water regulations. Two different cases that occurred prior to the Supreme Court resulted in a court ordering the EPA to determine the US waterways deemed to be protected by the Clean Water Act. Flake and McCain sent a letter to the head of the EPA, citing a number of reasons why the regulation would hurt Arizona. One of the senators' concerns is about the waterways that only flow in certain parts of the year. Flake and McCain believe that if the EPA includes these types of waterways in the new regulations, regulations will have a negative effect on Arizona's agricultural industry. One of the reasons that the EPA used in deciding which waterways will fall under the new regulations is to conclude whether pollution in the waters will have a negative impact on other waters downstream. Flake and McCain confirmed in their letter that there is little evidence to support such conclusions, but the EPA responded by saying that the proposed rule was carefully examined and made with bipartisan input. In addition, Flake and McCain wrote that the new changes could make it difficult for Arizona firefighters to fight forest fires.
Flake advocates rules for two main reasons. First, Flake writes that the EPA's proposed rule makes no distinction between water channels that flow throughout the year or only part of the year. Flake says that 94 percent of Arizona's waterways do not flow throughout the year, and therefore, the lack of differences in rules will affect most of Arizona's waterways. Secondly, Flake argues that the scientific evidence used by the EPA to support the rule is "anything but resolved." Flake and McCain warned EPA administrators about their concerns at the beginning of the year, by mail sent on May 6, 2014. An editorial published by Arizona Republic said that the EPA rules would have the effect of requiring CAP Channels to treat drinking water twice, which will increase the cost for Arizona residents. The editorial claims that the canals, and all water sources entering people's homes, must comply with the Safe Drinking Water Law.
Despite Flake's efforts against the bill, however, it was signed by President Barack Obama on December 16, 2014.
Foreign policy
Flake voted in favor of the Iraqi Resolution (which endorsed the Iraq War) at the House of Representatives in October 2002. In a House floor debate on power authorization (October 8, 2002), Flake said, "We must let history be our guide here, the most recent history in this case we have to see is the vote that took place in Room 12 years ago During that time we faced a very similar decision: Should we foil Saddam Hussein in his attempt to overstep his boundaries or should we calm him? , the majority of these bodies and other bodies agree that we should thwart it, and I think we can all agree that, if we do not do so, the biological and chemical weapons that belong to Saddam Hussein will be added to the nuclear weapons that would have today if he not foiled at that moment.We are in this position today, I will bow down, because of us have no other choice. option, war will no doubt come t big cost. When we visited the war memorial, we saw the cost, but the cost of the culling was much greater. I applaud the House leadership for bringing this resolution forward and to pastoring it through the process. I especially applaud our President forcibly pushing this resolution and deliberately pushing this resolution. I urge support for resolution. "
After the 2006 election in which Republicans lost control of the House primarily because of the unpopular war in Iraq, Flake altered his position in the Iraq War into one of the cautious opposition, including a vote on allocations. At the 2008 congressional hearing that featured General David Petraeus, Flake said, "I still have trouble viewing the big picture and what constitutes success [in Iraq].That's not just one side of the aisle with that kind of worry.Many about this side of the aisle has it as well. "
Flake endorses the end of the Cuban Trade Embargo and the normalization of relations with Cuba.
Flake supports President Barack Obama's decision in 2014 to begin the process of normalizing relations between the United States and Cuba, despite opposing policy changes from other Republican senators. Flake joined Democrats Chris Van Hollen and Patrick Leahy on their way to Cuba to return Alan Gross to the United States. Gross, an American aid worker, has been imprisoned in Cuba for five years, but was released as part of an agreement between Obama and Cuban leader RaÃÆ'ºl Castro. Flake believes that the US embargo against Cuba is flawed, stating, "The policies we have had over the last 50 years have been more in my view... to keep the Castro regime in power than anything we can 'have done." Flake has traveled to Cuba nine times and support easing restrictions on Americans traveling to Cuba.
Trouble control issues
On April 17, 2013, Flake joined 45 other senators in a vote against the Manchin-Toomey Amendment, which would require a background check on the sale of personal weapons. After the ballot, Flake was criticized for changing his position in the background check. Just days before the ballot, he had sent the mother of one of Colorado's theatrical shootings of handwritten letters stating that "strengthening background checks is something we agree on." Responding to a question that asked if he was worried about the potential political consequences of weapons control groups, Flake replied, "That is the beauty of the 6-year period I really want to do something for this, but what has been a bit annoyed is to hear people trying to hold that we are simply succumbing to pressure, ignoring any matter we have with the law, with language.That's not true. "After no vote, Flake's approval rating dropped from 45% to profitable-43% unprofitable, to being 32% are profitable-51% unprofitable according to one poll, making it the most unpopular senator in America in April 2013.
In March 2013, he joined Senator Lindsey Graham, Mark Begich and Mark Pryor in introducing a bill that would prevent individuals who tried to buy weapons by those who had used crazed defenses, ruled dangerous by the court, or had been conducted by the courts for mental health care.
Immigration
In 2007, Flake introduced legislation that would provide a way for legalization for illegal immigrants, giving temporary legal status to illegal immigrants paying fines and passing background checks, and creating guest workers programs. Also in 2007, Flake was removed from the House of Justice Committee by Republican Minority Leader John Boehner for "bad behavior", which Boehner said was a criticism of party leaders, although Flake himself attributed it to his support for comprehensive immigration reform.
In 2009, Flake introduced the Practice Stop in American PhD from Leaving Economics (STAPLE) Act (H.R. 1791). The bill will authorize students awarded Ph.D. in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics from a US university should be accepted for permanent residence and exempt from numerical limits on non-immigrant H-1B. The bill was reintroduced in 2011 and referred to the Subcommittee on Immigration Policy and Enforcement in February of that year.
In 2010, Flake voted against the DREAM Act, which would provide a path for citizenship for illegal immigrant children provided they join the military or go to university. At the end of October 2012, Flake stated that he can support it in the future.
In 2013, Flake is a member of "Gang of Eight" - a bipartisan group of eight senators (four Democrats and four Republicans) - who sponsor immigration repair bills. Flake said of the group: "Fast enough we decided that everyone around the table wanted to do this, we did not want to score political points." The Senate passed the bill with 68 votes, but the bill failed in the House.
When in November 2014, Obama announced on TV that he would use his executive power to allow some illegal immigrants to remain in the United States, Flake said that the best response was not to close the government but to pass a bill on immigration matters. As for Obama's executive plan, Flake said he was against it. Flake opposed the use of government funding to stop Obama executives, but Flake also said he believed that the two sides' strategy would make it more difficult to pass immigration reform legislation.
Flake publicly says that he believes that the reason why so many children in recent years have come to the US border illegally without parents is because parents believe their children will be able to stay in the United States if they do. Flake said that Republicans need to take a rational approach to solve immigration problems, and if not, the party will have difficulty winning national elections. Flake said that Jeb Bush's support for immigration system reforms made Bush more eligible for elections. Flake supported Jeb Bush's statement about immigration as an act of love, and said, "Growing up here in Arizona, I've seen what motivates those who come here illegally, of course, some coming with the intent to commit crimes or just to take advantage. of our generosity, but many come to find jobs to feed their families, to silence all those who cross the border illegally into the same class is unfair and unproductive. "
Flake speaks against President Donald Trump's 2017 presidential order to ban immigration from seven Muslim-dominated countries. He stated that "It is unacceptable when even permanent residents of law are arrested or rejected at airports and ports of entry."
Social issues
In October 2008, Esquire named Congressman One of the Ten Best Congressmen said in part, "A true conservative, Flake is just as scarce as a dodo, Republicans should learn from him, and liberals and libertarians will find in "During the 2005 debate on renewal of the expired provisions of the US Patriot Act, Jeff Flake managed to bring some changes to the bill in the House. One required the FBI director to personally sign on any request for library records and bookstore before applying to the United States Foreign Intelligence Supervisory Tribunal, but that was amended in the United States Senate version of the bill. Two of its amendments are signed into law and they subdue the National Security Letter and order his silence to the judicial challenge by the recipients, and narrow the scope of the "Sneak and Peek" warrants to have a clear deadline on their duration and extension before they need to notify the target of the investigation. Prior to that, the "Sneak and Peek" warrant could be extended to a "no trial delay" standard with no specified time limits. The amended bill was titled USA PATRIOT Improvement and Reauthorization Act of 2005 and signed into law on March 9, 2006. The bill also requires three Inspector General investigations leading to the discovery of emergency letters and misuse of the National Security Letter. On February 8, 2011, Flake chose to update the main provisions of the US PATRIOT Act. Polling failed. On February 10, 2011, Flake again chose to update the main provisions of the US PATRIOT Act. This sound works.
On March 7, 2017, Flake introduced the bill to eliminate the FCC Internet privacy rules passed under President Barack Obama. The proposed bill will allow Internet service providers to share and sell consumer search history without approval. In regards to FCC's Internet Privacy Act of Obama, Flake stated that "It is unnecessary, confusing and adding other rules that hinder innovation to the Internet." Flake received $ 22,700 in donations from paid lobbyists who represent Internet service providers and technology companies to sponsor anti-privacy laws. In April 2017, the law authorized both Congressional assemblies, controlled by the Republic, allowing ISPs to sell consumer search history and other information without user consent. One constituency at a town hall meeting told Flake that "you sold my privacy to the river."
Flake describes himself as "pro-life"; he opposes legal abortion, with the exception of rape, incest, and to protect the mother's life.
In 2010, Flake was one of the fifteen members of the House of Representatives to vote in favor of Do not Ask, Do not Tell the Revocation Act of 2010, which lifted the US military's "do not ask, do not tell" policy, which prohibits gay service members openly. The Human Rights Campaign, which assessed the support of politicians for LGBT rights, gave Flake a 32% score in Congress 114 and 20% during the 113th Congress. Flake has chosen to amend the US Constitution to ban same-sex marriage with Federal Marriage Amendment in 2004 and 2006.
In 2017, Flake chose three times to revoke the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.
Work Uncertainty Act
Although he supported the Non-Discrimination Labor Law (ENDA) in 2007, which would prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, Flake said he was concerned about the 2013 version, which included sexual orientation and gender identity. When voting took place on November 7, Flake voted in favor of the 2013 version of ENDA.
Roy Moore
In October 2017, Flake refused to support Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore in the December 2017 Senate special election in Alabama. Flake says that he can not support a candidate who believes that Muslims should not be allowed to serve in Congress. After the Washington Post reported in November 2017 that some women accused Moore of having sex with them or sexually assaulted them when they were teenagers, Flake quickly condemned Moore and said he would prefer Doug Jones, the candidate Democrats, won a special election instead of Moore. On December 5, 2017, one week before the election, Flake donated $ 100 to the Jones campaign and posted a tweet that read "Country over Party".
Supreme Court
In March 2016, Flake said that Justice Merrick Garland, President Barack Obama's candidate for the Supreme Court seat abandoned by the death of Antonin Scalia, should not be confirmed unless Hillary Clinton wins the 2016 presidential election. Flake argues that if Clinton wins, Garland must be confirmed in the senate session - the Senate duck because he's less liberal than Clinton's candidate. After meeting Garland in April, Flake reaffirmed this position, saying that a confirmation hearing on Garland's nomination should not be taken until after the election so that Americans can elect the next president unless Clinton wins, in which case "we must approve of him quickly. "
In April 2017, he chose to apply for cloture in the nomination of Supreme Court candidate Neil Gorsuch, ending the Democratic philosopher. Flake also chose "nuclear options", ending the ability to nominate the Supreme Court, and deviate from the Senate tradition. He stated, "When changing the Senate rules is not a result I like, it will only make de jure what is de facto before 2003, when filibrators are hardly ever used on an executive calendar." Experts have noted that this could be a perception of ending the use of filibuster altogether, allowing for a simple majority vote on legislation.
More
In 2015, Flake and Senator John McCain publish a report detailing what they call "paid patriotism" by the US Department of Defense for using soldiers, military equipment and resources at professional sporting events in the United States. The report provides evidence that taxpayer-funded patriotic views not only extend to the NFL but also to Major League Baseball, the National Hockey League and Major League Soccer.
Personal life
Flake and his wife Cheryl (nÃÆ' Â © e Bae) have been married since 1985. They live in Mesa and have five children. They are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He spent time in Zimbabwe and South Africa as a Mormon missionary.
His uncle, Jake Flake, was a state senator in Arizona.
In 2009, while serving as Representative, Flake spent a week alone on the island of Jabonwod, one of the Marshall Islands, in an attempt to survive. He survived by eating crabs, coconuts, and fish. After enjoying the experience, he decided to repeat it when he became senator, this time bringing his two youngest sons with him to another island in the area, Biggarenn, for four days during a congressional recess in 2013.
Electoral history
2018 Senate selection
In 2018, the seat of the Flake Senate will be at stake. Flake angered some Republicans with his criticism of Donald Trump, the party's candidate in the 2016 presidential election. President Trump himself was "outraged" that Flake asked him to withdraw from the presidential election after the emergence of the Access Hollywood tape. In August 2017, Flake published his book Conscience of a Conservative: A Rejection of Destructive Politics and Return to Principle, extending his critique of Donald Trump.
On October 24, 2017, Flake announced he would not seek a second term in the Senate, delivering a fiery speech on the Senate floor known for his criticism of the Trump Administration. Flake's speech, described by McKay Coppins as "a harsh indictment of his party, his president, and his country's political culture," was called "the most important speech of 2017" by Chris Cillizza.
In May 2018, Flake declared that he would donate to Democratic Senator Joe Manchin's campaign "if former Don Blankenship coal CEO" won the West Virginia primary and became a GOP nominee. Blankenship lost to Patrick Morrisey. That same month, Flake said that Trump had "lowered" the presidency, and that he "seemed to have no desire for destruction and division, and only the familiarity goes through with how the Constitution works."
Possible presidential campaign 2020
In mid-March 2018, Flake spoke in New Hampshire, the first state of the presidency, and said he did not rule out the Republican primary challenge to President Donald Trump by 2020.
