He helped cut off funding for the cartels who were trafficking people and drugs, fought against the predatory payday lending industry, helped to eliminating mortgage fraud and negotiated a settlement to protect the future of Luke Air Force Base.
Stanton was mayor of Phoenix from 2012 to 2018. During his 2011 campaign for mayor, questions arose over the legality of nearly $70,000 in contributions from Stanton's former treasurer Mindy Shields. Stanton opposed the embezzlement prosecution of Shields and fired her in October 2010.
