My Conservative Record of Success

While many candidates for public office will claim to be supportive of conservative issues, I have a proven record of successfully championing our agenda. My record has earned me a reputation for challenging the status quo and not accepting the way things have always been done. Now more than ever, we need a decisive leader on the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors who has a proven record of getting results, and I am that leader.

From the beginning, I was recognized as an effective legislator. In a rare move, as a freshman in the Arizona House of Representatives, I was appointed to serve as the Chairman of the Government Committee. I then served as Chairman of the Elections Committee, followed by the Ways and Means Committee. During that same time, I also served for eight years on the House Appropriations Committee. Upon my election to the Arizona Senate, I was appointed to serve as Chairman of the Commerce Committee for two years and served as the Chairman of the Government Committee while also serving on the Finance, Commerce and Appropriations Committees.

During my tenure at the legislature, my primary focus was defending the integrity and security of our elections by, among several things, strengthening identification requirements to vote early in person and banning the practice of ballot harvesting. To restore our state’s fiscal integrity, I passed legislation actually reducing taxes (repealing the unpopular $32 vehicle license tax), modernized our tax code and cut government spending to balance our state’s budget. To grow our economy and support our businesses, I successfully slashed bureaucratic red tape and removed government barriers to people entering the workforce. During the Covid-19 pandemic, I was one of the first to fight to keep our economy and schools open and successfully imposed legal limitations on the Governor’s ability to ever impose a public health emergency in perpetuity on us again. I also championed greater public representation on licensing boards, reformed our tort system, banned child marriage, and increased access to women’s healthcare.
