Eva Burch

Economy We must increase the minimum wage, support working families with paid family and medical leave, and support legislation to help small businesses thrive. We should incentivize companies to establish themselves in Arizona and hire Arizona workers. Eva also supports investments in clean energy and transportation. Healthcare Eva supports an Arizona where everyone has access to affordable, high-quality healthcare. Year after year, Arizonans have a higher-than-average uninsured rate, and pay too much for prescription medications. Families should not go bankrupt over medical bills, and we need leaders who are dedicated to building a healthcare system that does not leave children, the elderly, or the poor behind. Healthcare Eva knows that with the right legislation and the right distribution of resources, we can create healthier communities by expanding access to preventative healthcare and lowering the cost of prescription drugs. We must also expand access to KidsCare and make sure our seniors receive the Social Security benefits they paid into throughout their lives. Education Eva will work towards an Arizona where high-quality education is the standard regardless of the wealth of the community. Our students deserve reasonable classroom sizes as well as highly qualified teachers who are well paid. We must ensure that our public schools have access to books, technology, support staff, nutrition, and equipment that best supports students and teachers. Civil Rights Nothing could be more fundamental to our democracy than our right to vote, and Eva promises to work diligently in the senate to protect that right and to make sure that every Arizonan has equal access to their voting power, including the option to vote by mail. Eva will push back against voter suppression legislation while also working hard to maintain the integrity and security of our elections. Housing Eva wants to create an Arizona where safe and affordable housing is accessible to everyone. Where first time home buyers have realistic opportunities and resources to get into homes and renters have protection against predatory price-gouging and drastic rent increases. Where community development is not focused solely on maximizing profits but on building a better Arizona for working class individuals and families. Abortion / Contraception Eva knows the importance of having access to abortions, contraceptives, and overall reproductive freedom. As a healthcare provider, she knows that these decisions about healthcare should be made between an individual and their doctor, not politicians. Eva will fight to ensure that these deeply personal matters stay out of politicians hands.
