Economy

We need to attract investment from across the country and other parts of the world to diversify our economy and open up new markets for Arizona’s exports. Learn more

We need to work more closely with the private sector and local economic development organizations to bring 21st century jobs to our state. Learn more

We need to encourage more home-grown enterprises by providing small businesses with greater access to capital and looking for ways to reduce regulatory burdens that inhibit investment and growth. Learn more

Education

Every child in Arizona deserves a quality education provided by trusted and valued teachers in a safe and secure environment. Learn more

While throwing money at a problem should never be the first course of action, it's clear that we must continue to fight to make smarter investments in our classrooms, and give teachers and students the tools they need to succeed. Learn more

I believe that teachers must focus on educating our next generation of leaders, not guarding their classrooms with deadly force. We can find other, common sense solutions to improve security in our schools. Learn more

We must also ensure that we have the best, most qualified teachers in every classroom. Learn more

Government Reform

I’ll work with state leaders—inside and outside government, of both parties—to protect our ballot initiative process while ensuring its integrity. Learn more

Ballot measures are vital to maintaining the power of the people in areas where government fails to act. Learn more

I am committed to putting you, the people, first—not corporations or special interests. Learn more

Guns

I believe that teachers must focus on educating our next generation of leaders, not guarding their classrooms with deadly force. We can find other, common sense solutions to improve security in our schools. Learn more

I am steadfast in my belief that we need robust, universal background checks to keep these weapons out of the hands of people with a history of violence and/or mental illness. Learn more

We must close any loophole that weakens the effectiveness of these background checks – including those related to gun shows and private sales (Gov. Ducey eliminated the latter in 2017). Learn more

I support new conditions for who may own high-capacity, semi-automatic assault rifles. Their use should be strictly limited to highly trained, specially licensed and vetted gun owners, and used only on private land or accredited gun ranges. Learn more

I do not want to abolish the Second Amendment and my goal is not to take guns away from law-abiding, well-trained citizens who use them for hunting, recreation or protecting their families. Learn more

Healthcare

It’s clear that the Affordable Care Act (ACA) isn’t perfect, but it was a positive step forward. A complete repeal, without a plan to address its shortcomings, would cause about 700,000 Arizonans to lose coverage. Learn more

At the same time, we need to do a better job of providing people with better preventive coverage. We need to equip them with knowledge they can use to make smart choices about their own health and well-being, as well as insurance options. Learn more

I will fight to protect Arizonans’ access to quality, affordable healthcare. This includes protecting those with pre-existing conditions from the dangers of skyrocketing premiums and discrimination by insurers. It means protecting the right to basic coverage, like emergency services and maternity care. And it means providing reproductive healthcare options, especially to women. Learn more

Legislation

It’s clear that the Affordable Care Act (ACA) isn’t perfect, but it was a positive step forward. A complete repeal, without a plan to address its shortcomings, would cause about 700,000 Arizonans to lose coverage. Learn more
