Issues

I supported the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. In December 2017, this bill became law and provides much-needed economic relief to the American people. This bill has laid the foundation for the revival of our economy and ensures that you keep more of your hard-earned money. This historic tax reform package allows American companies to compete globally and incentivize businesses to stay in America.

I am working to simplify our tax structure and make sure that all tax cuts become permanent.

Education decisions should be made by parents-not the Federal Government. I support families having full freedom to choose what works best for their children, including public, private, online, or homeschool. Every child should have an opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed in a career path they choose. I will continue to advance education priorities focusing on local control, maximum flexibility, and ensure that Arizonans have the most educational opportunities available to them.

The first full day I was sworn in office, I kept my campaign pledge to cosponsor a bill to reduce burdensome federal regulations (The REINS Act). I have and will continue to fight onerous regulations that hamper the American entrepreneurial spirit and economy.

Congress has wrongfully delegated its duties to the Executive Branch. Unelected bureaucrats often create regulations to further their own agenda to the detriment of the American people and our economy.

I have supported President Trump and Congress as we overturned 15 major regulations that have already saved billions of dollars.

I promised to fight to repeal Obamacare and I sponsored legislation to do so. Many Arizonans have told me of the negative consequences of Obamacare.

I also introduced the Protection from Obamacare mandates and the Congressional Equity Act which would make sure lawmakers are never excused from the laws they pass.

I continue to urge House leadership to repeal Obamacare and pass meaningful reforms that would reduce premiums and allow greater choice and access to medical care such as, permitting group insurance, selling across state lines, and market-based community ratings.

I support President Trump's promise to put America first and reduce needless involvement in every hemisphere in the world. The world is an increasingly volatile place and we must follow Reagan's peace through strength mantra. We must more narrowly define what comprises America's national security interests; we must not continue to be the world's policeman. The United Nations works to undermine America's interests throughout the world and has had little success in preventing genocide or bringing peace. Therefore, I advocate that the Unites States should provisionally withdraw from the United Nations. Congress must declare war before our servicemembers and military resources are deployed for combat.

I have supported every National Defense Authorization Act since coming to Congress because we must give our troops what they need to keep America safe. I will combat our military readiness challenges and find ways to cut waste and efficiency within our existing programs. I supported pay raises for our troops and wholeheartedly fight to ensure their dedication and sacrifices are properly honored.

Congress unanimously passed and President Trump signed the Ashlynne Mike AMBER Alert in Indian Country Act into law on April 13, 2018. I led this life-saving solution to ensure that no child –regardless of race, ethnicity, or birthplace—is outside the protection of this vital law enforcement tool.

Ashlynne lived on the Navajo Reservation and was 11-years old when she and her brother were kidnapped. Ashlynne’s brother was able to escape and survive the ordeal. They were transported to a deserted part of the reservation, where they were assaulted, abused, and left to die.

When a child is missing, immediate action is critical to their safe return. Authorities did not send an AMBER Alert for over 10 hours after Ashlynne went missing because of a loophole in the system. We might have saved Ashlynne—her killer later testified that she was still alive when he left her.

The AMBER Alert program has proven valuable at efficiently providing information to the public to assist in the search. Unfortunately, Indian tribes were left out of the original authorizing statute of the program, which has led to vast gaps in the system. Our bill provides the opportunity to ensure all children can benefit from the AMBER Alert program if necessary, no matter where they reside.
