Lupe Diaz
Candidate for Arizona State House – District 19
Arizona · Legislative District 19
Statement
Our state and nation are under siege by those who would divide us, turn us against each other, and attack our values, principles and beliefs. That's why I'm proud to fight shoulder to shoulder with David Gowan and Gail Griffin – battling the liberal fanatics targeting Arizona. I am proud to defend the freedoms given to us by God and enshrined in our Constitution. I fight for, and will continue to fight for, a strong economy, lower prices and lower inflation, real border security, election integrity, water, freedom from medical tyranny, our 2nd Amendment rights, our mining and agricultural communities, religious freedom, and the rights of parents to direct the education of their children. Being strong conservatives has made us targets, so now we have primary challengers who want us to battle each other instead of Democrats. We are smarter than that and know how the other side works. We watch them target Donald Trump and conservatives around the country and recognize that they will not stop trying to tear us down, so we must build each other up. Thank you for your continued support and prayers, and please vote for the Arizona First team of Diaz, Gowan and Griffin!
