In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“I pledge that as a member of Congress I will cosponsor and vote for the U.S. Term Limits Amendment of three (3) two-year House terms and two (2) six-year Senate terms and no longer limit.”
“I will never vote to authorize or fund military action without a formal Declaration of War from Congress—rejecting all vague "authorizations" (AUMFs) used to bypass the Constitution.”
“If given the privilege to serve Arizona’s 1st District, I will take that fire to the halls of Congress—fighting for individual rights, reining in out-of-control government, and always voting for non-intervention, PEACE, and America First principles.”
“I see HOAs as microcosms of our broken government: overreaching, invasive, intrusive, and ruling rather than serving.”
“My campaign is focused on bringing peace-loving, Libertarian-minded voters together from both sides of the aisle— independents who are already Libertarians in heart and spirit but don’t realize it, because the Uniparty spends millions on smear campaigns and rigs the rules to keep Libertarians off the debate stage and silence any independent platform.”
“I will not take money from AIPAC nor foreign lobbies; I will show up and vote solely in the interests of Americans.”
