A Message to Patriots in a Democrat-controlled America

“Never in our nation's storied history has there been a more important moment for citizens of every persuasion to step up and engage in this battle—the battle for the very soul of our nation. 

America needs modern day Washingtons, Jeffersons, Reveres, and Franklins to step forward and lead. Our nation needs a rekindling of the quiet heroes of the Greatest Generation—the men and women who selflessly sacrificed to overcome fascism and communism in the 20th century.  No matter how insurmountable the challenges we face may feel, the answer lies with everyday Americans simply having the courage to faithfully step into the lion’s den as unwavering voices for truth.

Now is the time to lead. The battle we’ve been fighting like hell to stave off is now upon us. We must engage, have hope, and persist in this fight, for the price of failure is far too high.”

Arizona is positioned to lead the nation in protecting our citizens’ civil right to free, fair and secure elections.

Integrity in our elections doesn’t benefit one political party over another; election integrity benefits every single voter regardless of political party, race, gender or income. Period.

The Department of Justice's recent decision to publicly target Arizona lawmakers for excercising our constitutional authority over elections is an abhorrent abuse of power and a starkly accurate representation of the disgusting politicization that has occurred within this federal institution.

Let us, as Arizona lawmakers, be very clear with the Biden Administration and its minions: The Constitution of the United States expressley authorizes our legislative oversight and control of elections. Stay the hell out of our way.

It is not only a constitutional duty, it is a moral imperative, that as the legislatures of the sovereign states we prescribe the most secure and honest manner of administering elections as possible.

The future survival of our nation depends on ensuring that every legal vote is counted and the citizenry has confidence in the outcome of our elections.

🚨 URGENT ACTION ALERT 🚨

Arizona State University just announced that it will be mandating COVID vaccines for in-person learning.

For any student exercising their individual freedom by choosing NOT to be vaccinated ASU will require them to receive TWO COVID TESTS PER WEEK and WEAR A MASK 100% OF THE TIME.

This is a gross abuse of student’s individual liberty and medical freedom.

This is a gross abuse of taxpayer dollars.

This is an unacceptable overreach by an Arizona governmental entity.

If Arizona State University and the Board of Regents (like Regent Karin Robson who’s just announced her run for governor in 2022) chooses to hold the line on this outrageous overreach, there will have to be a serious and heavy handed response from the legislature.

You do not get to receive hundreds of millions in taxpayer funding, while blatantly trampling the rights of those taxpayers.

HOUSE DEMOCRATS ABANDON CAPITOL IN ATTEMPT TO CAUSE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN

Today AZ House Democrats abandoned their jobs in an attempt to cause a gov't shutdown & prevent the House from doing the business of the people of AZ

House Democrats are denying low-income & middle class Arizonans critically important financial relief as we recover from the devastation of COVID. Democrats' attempt to shutdown the state of AZ is a disgusting new tactic designed to hurt the people of our state for their own partisan gain.

Equally as disturbing is their blocking the creation of an election integrity fund to help pay for the critical election security infrastructure needed to ensure voter confidence.

Make no mistake that it is Democrats who are...

▪️trying to shutdown the AZ gov't

▪️blocking your tax cuts

▪️blocking election integrity funding

▪️refusing to do the work of the people of AZ

Democrats' behavior today is disgusting & their pay should be cut off immediately. Period.
🚨 AZ STATE BUDGET & ELECTION INTEGRITY UPDATE 🚨

It’s was a heckuva day down here at the AZ Capitol yesterday! I arrived at ~8:15am and pulled out of the parking lot to head home at ~10:45pm.

The budget is about 85% done so we start again today at 9:00am for another 5-6 hours of debate.

The GREAT news is that yesterday we took the final vote to pass the HISTORIC $1.9 BILLION TAX CUT, including establishing a 2.5% flat tax and a 4.5% max income tax cap!

THIS IS A HUGE WIN FOR ALL TAXPAYERS, SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS, & JOB CREATORS!

Arizonans were slammed last year (and continue to be) by one of the worst economic disruptions in over 100 years due to the Chinese coronavirus. Despite the hard times YOU experienced the state of AZ is sitting on RECORD revenues. Having a multi-billion dollar surplus is not something to celebrate. It means we’re OVERTAXING our citizens.

Thanks to the work of Republicans in the legislature yesterday, we cut taxes in a BIG way letting AZ taxpayers keep BILLIONS more of their own money!

Last night we also passed my election integrity amendment that created an Election Integrity Fund and appropriated an initial $12 MILLION to be used for things like:

▪️Anti-fraud ballot security paper
▪️Election security measures
▪️Election cybersecurity measures
▪️Post-election hand count tabulation

Also in the election integrity amendment was the creation of an Unreported In-Kind Contribution Task Force to investigate big tech bias and their attempts to influence our elections.

These are two HUGE victories for the people of Arizona and will help ensure voters can have confidence in the process and outcome of Arizona elections.

There were other great things that we did yesterday that I’ll share in the coming days, but right now we can all celebrate these incredible victories for the people of Arizona!

🚨 ARIZONA ELECTION INTEGRITY & EDUCATION UPDATE 🚨

Another long day at the AZ Capitol yesterday, but Republicans in the House accomplished exceptional things on behalf of the people of this state! I’ll break them up into three categories: Election Integrity, Education, & Critical Race Theory.

ELECTION INTEGRITY

Approximately 3 weeks ago Governor Ducey vetoed my election integrity legislation that would ban the mass mailing of ballots to voters that didn’t request an early ballot. The legislation also added a Class 5 Felony for County Recorders who go rogue and willfully violate this law.

Undeterred by the veto, I reintroduced my legislation as a new bill and yesterday the House once again passed this critically necessary election integrity reform.

HB2905 (banning mass mailing of ballots) now heads to the Senate for a vote! Please let all Senate Republicans know how important it is that they pass HB2905 and send it back to the Governor!

EDUCATION

Yesterday, conservatives in the House added some incredible provisions to the K-12 bill. Take a look!

◼️ Require K-12 schools to teach:

▪️about the evils of communism and totalitarianism

▪️about the original intent of the founding documents and principles of the United States (from the actual source documents)

▪️first-hand accounts of people who escaped communist and totalitarian governments and now enjoy the blessings of freedom and liberty in America

A huge shoutout goes to Representative Judy Burges for bringing this idea to the House!

◼️ Total ban on masks and vaccine mandates for K-12 student in-person learning:

▪️School districts will no longer be allowed to mandate face masks or COVID vaccines for in-person learning

A huge shoutout goes to Representative Jacqueline Parker for this!

◼️ Total ban on teaching Critical Race Theory in public schools:

▪️Public schools will no longer be allowed to teach or spend public monies on the instruction of this hateful, racist, anti-American ideology

A huge shoutout goes to Representative John Fillmore for bringing this amendment to fix the CRT language and make it a TOTAL ban!

CRITICAL RACE THEORY

Three weeks ago the Governor also vetoed my legislation banning Critical Race Theory and prohibiting spending public monies on it at ALL levels of government (city, county, state agency, etc).

CRT is being used by leftist politicians and bureaucrats to:

▪️ Undermine and attack our great police officers
▪️ Indoctrinate taxpayer funded public employees
▪️ Institutionalize racism, sexism and bigotry within our local governments and society
▪️ Fundamentally transform our local governments’ worldview
▪️ Encourage the exact kind of racism that America and MLK Jr. fought so hard to stomp out
▪️ Destroy the exceptionalism of the United States

This disgusting ideology is the opposite of what America stands. This legislation is too important to allow it to be vetoed, which is why I have re-introduced it as HB2906 and yesterday Republicans in the House re-passed the bill.

The bill now needs one final vote in the Senate and then will go back to the Governor for his signature.

Please let all Senate Republicans know how important it is that they pass HB2906 and send it back to the Governor!

————————————

Yesterday it was every Republican who passed these great pieces of legislation. Not a SINGLE Democrat had the courage to join with Republicans to do the right thing for the people of Arizona. In fact, nearly EVERY Democrat actively fought AGAINST these great things. Democrats called the majority of the House—and by extension the majority of Arizonans—racists, liars, white nationalists and much more as they opposed these measures.

Let their attacks and opposition be a stark reminder:

Elections matter.

I, along with many of my fellow Republicans, am fighting like hell to make sure the voice of the People is not just heard, but is acted on, at the State Capitol!

Thank you for supporting us as we fight for you!

God bless America! 🇺🇸

🚨 HUGE WIN FOR ARIZONANS 🚨

Governor Ducey just signed into law my bill, HB2906, that fully bans the hateful, racist, and divisive Critical Race Theory at all levels of government within our state.

Arizona does not need even one penny of taxpayer funding being used to support ideologies that:

▪️ Institutionalizes racism, sexism and bigotry within our local governments and society

▪️ Encourages the exact kind of racism that MLK Jr. and America fought so hard to stomp out

▪️ Destroys the exceptionalism of the United States

▪️ Undermines and attacks our great police officers

▪️ Indoctrinates taxpayer-funded public employees or students

This bill rightfully puts an end to spending public monies of any sort on this disgusting, regressive ideology.

Here is my statement on the signing of my bill:

“This first in the nation legislation banning critical race theory at all levels of government makes Arizona the national leader in combating this divisive curriculum. Arizona stands with Martin Luther King Jr.’s proclamation that people should be judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin, and I’m grateful for the support of Governor Ducey and my colleagues in passing this important legislation.”

You can find Governor Ducey’s press release on the signing of HB 2906 here: https://azgovernor.gov/governor/news/2021/07/governor-ducey-legislature-take-strong-action-stop-critical-race-theory

Democrats and the fake news media want you to think that Critical Race Theory isn’t happening in Arizona. They are wrong.

Read my statement below:

“Critical Race Theory and its divisive, bigoted ideas have become a growing problem within Arizona governments.

Often times disguised by innocuous sounding terms like “equity”, this Marxism-based movement has crept up in cities and school districts throughout our state including the cities of Phoenix, Tucson, and Flagstaff, among many others.

Arizonans rightfully refuse to support racism and this legislation ensures that remains the commitment of our state.”
-Representative Jake Hoffman

STATEMENT ON INVESTIGATION INTO HIGLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT FRAUD

“This is truly a sad day for the Higley Unified School District and the students and families it serves. The level of apparent corruption is staggering and heartbreaking.  I am proud to have actively fought against this abuse of power, misuse of taxpayer monies, and blatant disregard for the law during my tenure on the Higley governing board.

As a result of these findings, I will be looking at opportunities for education reform legislation to introduce next session in order to ensure that crooked administrators stop bleeding our schools of their resources and start putting students and teachers first.”

Rep. Jake Hoffman Statement on Maricopa County Supervisors' Response to State Senate Subpoenas

“The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors is engaged in one of the most divisive and dangerous subversions of government that the state of Arizona has ever witnessed.

The Board’s blatant disregard for the Constitution and public mockery of the lawful oversight of elections by the Arizona legislature is not only disrespectful, it undermines the very fabric of our Republic.

Through its obstructionism, lack of transparency, and outright trampling of the Constitution, the Board of Supervisors has effectively spit in the face of every voter in Maricopa County and this state.”

@JakeHoffman
It borders on anarchy & destabilizes the very foundation of our society to have local governments refusing to comply with the law.

Any local government that flaunts state law must be held accountable.

We have called upon the Governor to immediately take the following action:

1. Withhold federal funding from all non-compliant school districts

2. Authorize temporary ESAs for all students trapped within a non-compliant school districts

3. Send a notice to all families of non-compliant school districts empowering them with the following info:

a. The retroactive June 30, 2021 effective date of the law banning mask mandates

b. The availability of the newly authorized temporary ESAs & how to use them

c. The abundance of school choice options afforded to them by state law

4. Initiate legal action against all non-compliant school districts

A resounding message must be delivered to any local government considering defying state law— lawlessness will not be tolerated.
