Statement
I'm a true constitutional conservative, wife, bonus mom, cowgirl, and Registered Nurse, serving in just my second term in the State Senate. I'm proud to serve alongside Steve Montenegro and James Taylor, who represent you in the State House. We are keeping our word and working hard on the issues that matter to you and our great state. Strong borders, secure elections, good jobs, trying to reverse the damage the Hobbs administration is doing to our economy, fighting inflation and high prices, protecting private property rights, school choice, doing right by our veterans and first responders, restoring your medical freedom, looking after our water supply, ending DEI and social engineering, and more. I wrote the Senate version of the "Arizona Border Invasion Act" and led the Legislature's investigation into pandemic abuses and how to do better in the future. I also wrote legislation to target pedophiles and child traffickers and protect our kids from those seeking to exploit them. We know the battle is long and we will keep working hard for you until the battle is won. Thank you for your continued prayers and support!
