Yesterday, a Democrat Senator made a motion to suspend rules and allow a gun control bill to bypass committee and come straight to the floor for a vote. Senator Warren Petersen then shreds the argument that more gun laws will keep us safe.

Thank you Sen. Petersen for defending our inalienable right to defend ourselves!

We’re here with the #RLCendorsed candidate for Congressional District 4, Kelly Cooper. He’s the principled, pro-Liberty candidate who has what it takes to flip this seat.

“These proposals to ostensibly cut the tech giants down to size would, instead, perpetuate the dominant position of these companies and deprive consumers of the technological innovation that only free-market competition can provide.”

In his new op-ed, Senator Rand Paul explains why we should always defend free market principles: https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/anger-big-tech-excuse-abandon-free-market

Sponsored by Rep. Ben Toma, HB2853 would expand eligibility for Empowerment Scholarship Accounts, so every K-12 student may have the opportunity to go to the school of their choice.

Public schools must not have a monopoly on education. Let’s advance school choice for every student and family, by funding students instead of systems. We support HB2853.

HB2853 is scheduled for the House Ways and Means Committee tomorrow, Wednesday, June 15th.

Great to see Governor Ducey sign Sen. Nancy Barto’s bill, SB1469. Glad to support this bill that protects privacy and due process, while upholding the 4th Amendment.

Thank you Congressman Thomas Massie for always defending our constitutional rights! Red flag laws violate the 2nd, 4th and 5th Amendments. The politicians supporting red flag laws have betrayed their oath to the Constitution and should be voted out.

Thank you Rep. Travis Grantham
for holding these bad, crony corporate welfare bills! We need more principled legislators like Rep. Grantham who are not beholden to special interests!

Thank you Arizona House Republicans! School choice is liberty! #FundStudentsNotSystems

Great work by Rep. Shawnna Bolick! Her striker on SB1116 just passed the House with bipartisan support. This will repeal municipal rental property taxes, providing some relief from the skyrocketing rent prices.

SB1708 would have given $150 million in tax credits to film companies. Fortunately Rep. Travis Grantham held the bill in House Rules. But yesterday the Senate ignored the traditional committee deadlines/rules and amended HB2156 to resurrect this crony corporate welfare. Shameful. Thank you to the nine Senators who voted No.

We could have passed meaningful tax cuts to help Arizonans grapple with inflation, but now the budget surplus is gone. Thank you to the few fiscal conservatives in the legislature who opposed this budget. We will recognize you in our next legislative scorecard. #DrainTheSwamp

While passing a massive $18 billion budget that spends our entire $5 billion surplus, 25 Senators & 34 Representatives had the gall to vote for a bill that puts a sales tax increase on the ballot. Because a $5 billion spending increase is not enough! This vote is embarrassing.

Here’s how the House voted on HB2156. Green members voted to give away $150 million in tax credits to film companies. Wasteful, crony corporate welfare.

The House has passed HB2685, the $36 billion Maricopa County Transit Slush Fund to build light rail, trollies, and bike paths - NOT roads and freeways. As Biden said just yesterday, their goal is to “take millions of cars off the roads.” ALL of the democrats voted for this, 21 Republicans voted NO. Tell the Governor to VETO!

The Republican Liberty Caucus of Arizona proudly endorses Allen Skillicorn for Fountain Hills Town Council. As a former state legislator, Allen Skillicorn has a proven record of defending liberty. We need local elected officials like Allen who understand that government should be limited and it’s purpose is to defend individual rights. Allen Skillicorn will be a principled voice of reason on the Fountain Hills Town Council.

SB1168 is a bad bill that grows government and violates private property rights. It gives local governments ability to impose heavy regulations on short term rental properties. The original bill was narrow, but the recent floor amendment expanded the bill dramatically. Senators should vote No.

WATCH: Yesterday, Representative Grantham explained his NO vote on the taxpayer subsidy for woke Hollywood producers to film movies in Arizona. Thank you Rep. Grantham, and to everyone who voted NO. Email Governor Ducey and tell him to VETO HB2156! https://www.votervoice.net/AZFEC/Campaigns/92108/Respond

Speaker Announcement:

We are excited to announce that State Representative Jacqueline Parker will be joining us as a guest speaker on July 9th! Rep. Parker is a fiscal hawk who leads the fight against big government expansions. We look forward to hearing her inside scoop on the legislative session and the budget the legislature just passed.

We will also hear from Jan Dubauskas, candidate for LD3 State Senate, and Alex Kolodin, candidate for LD3 House. Both have been endorsed by the RLCAZ.

We’ll be unveiling our 2022 legislative scorecard at this meeting, and RLC members will have an opportunity to participate in a straw poll for statewide races. Hope to see you there!
