Healthcare We should look to support policies that facilitate competition, expand the Right to Try, and increase transparency at every stage of the medical process. Education We should be funding our teachers and our classrooms, not the bureaucrats. We should not be giving millions of dollars to special interests when we could be funding our students most in need. Education Your zip code and income should not determine your educational outcome and I will work tirelessly to increase education funding for families who choose to engage with district public, charter, homeschool or private options. Education Additionally, I am in favor of a plan to increase teacher pay without raising taxes by utilizing state land trust funds. Criminal Justice / Public Safety Additionally, we should support our local law enforcement and attempt to address the hiring crisis. We should collaborate with law enforcement at the state, local, and federal level to address the fentanyl crisis and other individual issues facing Arizonans. Housing We must invest into resources for our unhoused community and ensure that there are options available for all types of homelessness. We must provide services in addition to housing programs instead of simply offering housing without services as we have in the past. Taxes / Budget I will never sign off on an unbalanced state budget. Immigration We must have humanitarian methods of addressing the border crisis while investing resources into state-run border patrol operations and programs for legal immigration. Border policies which prove controversial should be sent to the people to decide on their ballot for a final say.
