AZ Attorney General Kris Mayes: Gutting fair housing regulations will make it harder for Arizonans to find affordable housing at a time folks need it most, not to mention making it harder for our state to protect residents from unfair housing discrimination.

State Senator Jake Hoffman: In contact with DHS last 72 hrs. Stay tuned America. The corrupt Maricopa County Board of Supervisors & their election department are in full panic. Election Director seen in full day sweats today. The Board of Supervisors, PAST & PRESENT, are corrupt to the core.

State Representative Alma Hernandez: Arizonans have not forgotten that you, @RepAndyBiggsAZ, as Senate President BLOCKED HB2648, a bill that would have protected women & children from sexual abuse. It was @MichelleUgenti's bill, and you killed a GOP bill because you chose not to protect children who Warren Jeffs and his enforcers were abusing. Not only did you vote to block the Epstein files, but you clearly have a pattern of protecting abusers. Just a friendly reminder, because there are plenty of principled republicans who don’t care to support or protect abusers.

State Representative Rachel Keshel: I enthusiastically support this man to be the next Governor of AZ! Go Biggs or go home!!!

State Representative Joseph Chaplik: Great evening at Alpio’s/Troon at Politics Uncorked, speaking to a packed house of over 70 supporters. I’m grateful for all their help and unwavering support in this campaign. @p_uncorked

State Representative Nick Kupper: Promised made, promises not kept. Thanks for being the typical garbage politician @SenatorCollins

State Representative Michael Way: I consider Karrin and Andy to be tremendous friends. I commend Karrin for joining team Biggs. There is too much at stake for us to waste time with intra-party squabbles. We have a state to save.

State Representative Teresa Martinez: Let’s ALL get behind @andybiggs4az for Governor! Let’s all UNITE and WIN!
