A quick update on drop boxes. I have pushed to get rid of them all together, however we find ourselves with a one seat majority and an obstinate Paul Boyer. I am not satisfied with failure and having to use 2020 rules for the 2022 election. Therefore, I also have a plan B. I have created an invention and asked for a pilot program regarding a “smart” drop box.

This smart drop box does not tally your vote, it only logs in that your envelope has been received. Much like an ATM machine, there will be chain of custody and an inability to stuff a dropbox like people can now. It will have a camera like an ATM machine and it will limit one ballot per deposit.

We trust our cash and checks to an ATM machine. The machine with a camera, chain of custody, and the ability to deposit the cash into our own account and not someone else’s. If we can’t get rid of the boxes, then I demand a secure box to do so until we have enough Republicans to get rid of them all together. We cannot go back to 2020 rules.

I also will say that I am pressing for HB 2289 to be put on the board for a vote. Let’s see who is serious about this and who is not.

I wish to thank Governor @DougDucey for signing my bill, SB1607, that further establishes the State Guard by requiring the Governor to create a chain of command and a process for volunteers to report to duty. Big step forward!

Isn’t it interesting that the baby formula shortage happened about the same time of year as the toilet paper shortage? Both election years, both primal need issues. Probably nothing…

I have asked the AG office & the Governor’s office to advise on the WHO May 22 meeting to vote on the Biden amendments that gives international power over the US. I expect his office should file a lawsuit for an injunction based off of the 10th Amendment and Article 1 Section 8 of the US Constitution.

So sad to hear about #BuffaloShooting. My heart goes out to the families and to the entire country. Hate is on the rise and can split our beautiful nation, but we must stand against racism and unite as one country. We cannot let this continue to divide us. May we rise above it.

The last thing we need is to have our countrymen literally fighting each other. This will only bring martial law and more tumult that will bring unrest that we cannot afford right now. Stand against those who stoke hatred and come together, America, not apart.

It’s that time again!

Done with Democrats.

Excited to be at the Senate debate tonight held by the Jewish Women’s Conservative Forum. All candidates here except for Brnovich.

Super glad about my election integrity bill that is now on the Governor’s desk.

Today I met with Gov @DougDucey‘s team & an ESA mom to discuss solutions that will give parents a voice who are in the program. I am tired of hearing the abusive way parents are treated & I am committed to making sure there is proper oversight to correct the problems we are seeing.

Arizona needs to temporarily stop the gas tax to provide relief to our residents, and we need to create a compact with other states to pressure the Biden admin to return to American energy production to reverse this negative and far-reaching inflation. Now.

I am very dismayed at the divisiveness that I am finding in the new district LD7. I want to encourage all Republicans and conservative independents to band together for the sake of our country instead of trying to divide and conquer for the sake of a little power. This is no time to be a wrecking ball but rather we must resist the infighting and set aside petty squabbles. Our country depends on us.
