Jacob D. Martinez
Candidate for Arizona State House – District 9
Arizona · Legislative District 9
Statement
I have lived in Mesa my entire life, and have always been dedicated to serving my community. Coming from a working-class family, I know how important a strong public education system and opportunities for economic mobility are to the people in my community, as they have been for me. Over the last few years, the state legislature has drained funding to our public schools and critical social services, all while pushing a politicized agenda and allowing corporations to drive up the cost of housing, healthcare, and utilities in our state. I'm running to help build an Arizona that works for all of us, not just a few. An Arizona that we can all afford. I believe LD9 deserves a representative who listens, shows up, and works every day to deliver real results.
