ICYMI: Arizona Democrats Are Attacking a Full Court Press on Extreme Out of Touch GOP Candidates
PHOENIX – Last week Arizona Democratic Party Chairwoman Raquel Terán joined MSNBC’s The Reid Out and shared an opinion piece featured in the Arizona Republic highlighting how Democrats are focused on finding solutions for problems Arizona families face, while Republicans are laser focused on conspiracy theories and fighting fringe culture wars.
While Democrats have been delivering consistent wins for Arizona – electing President Biden, two Democratic U.S. senators, a secretary of state, superintendent of public instruction, two corporation commissioners, the Arizona Republican Party is doubling down on an extreme MAGA agenda that won’t create a single job, educate a single child or lift a single Arizonan out of poverty.
Of course, we’ve always had our critics, but Democrats and community leaders have spent years building the infrastructure and the “big tent” coalition needed to win. We are mobilizing now to win and put Arizona’s future in the hands of people who value education, equal rights, equal opportunity and fair elections – the stakes are far too high to do anything else.
