Arizona is the beating heart of America’s economic future. We’re leading the way in semiconductor manufacturing, aerospace, defense technology, and logistics. But if we want to stay competitive, we must stay bold.source
Arizona families deserve to be able to afford to live and raise a family here, but prices for housing, groceries, gas and health care are all getting more expensive.source
As an emergency physician, Dr. Shah witnesses firsthand the struggles of patients who cannot afford the care they need. Our current healthcare system is broken, prescription drugs are unaffordable, and reproductive freedoms are under attack.source
Amish knows that Arizona's seniors are worried about the security of their retirement. Congressional Republicans and the Trump Administration's DOGE put Social Security and Medicare on the chopping block and economic instability threatens their 401(k) investments.source
A nation without borders is no nation at all. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have created a crisis at our southern border—ushering in a tidal wave of illegal immigration, deadly fentanyl, and violent crime.source
As an emergency room physician, Amish has seen firsthand the devastating impacts of gun violence and illegal drug trafficking.source

American Democracy is under attack. Extremists have cast doubt on the results of our elections, threatened to decertify the will of Arizona’s voters, and incited a deadly insurrection to stop the counting of votes. The Trump Administration has been trampling on the U.S.source
