Ballotpedia survey responses

Becky Nutt did not complete Ballotpedia's 2020 Candidate Connection survey.

2016

Nutt's campaign website highlighted the following issues:

Jobs and the Economy

  • Raised in an entrepreneur family, I learned at an early age to place great value on free enterprise and hard work. The sum of my life experiences have given me a variety of tools to work effectively in our State Legislature to help foster a healthy and supportive environment for business, fight back against burdensome regulations, and make job creation a top priority.

Second Amendment

  • "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." This language is very clear to me. As an NRA member, I will lead the fight to protect our Second Amendment rights.

Pro-Life

  • I believe that all life is precious and should be defended. I am unapologetically pro-life.

Securing the Border

  • The politicians in Washington DC have failed us here in Southern Arizona. Our border is unsecure. Drug and human smuggling are out of control. As your State Representative, I will deliver a consistent message to Congress and the Administration that they must secure the border and ensure our law enforcement officials have all the tools they need to enforce the law. I will oppose amnesty and any efforts to grant those who come into our country illegally any taxpayer-funded benefits.

Improving Education

  • I believe in local control of education. I am opposed to Common Core and will fight back against the overreaching mandates from bureaucrats in Washington DC. I am a strong supporter of school choice and allowing parents to decide where their children go to school. I also believe we need to reform the way our education dollars are spent so that a larger percentage of the funds end up in the classrooms with teachers and students.[8]

Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in Arizona

A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
