The growing presence of AI data centers has become a front and center concern for voters, raising questions of their feasibility in certain communities, the resources they are using, and what role our elected officials should play in passing laws that regulate them.

I was asked this question in our recent debate, and I wanted to make sure you saw my response.

It’s a complex and nuanced issue. But here is how I’ll approach it.

First, we do need data centers in Arizona. It’s in our national security interests as a country.

But we need to be wise about where they go, like in areas that are further out or industrial versus near neighborhoods where they absolutely don’t make sense.

I was proud to support the recent moratorium on tax incentives for data centers that was passed by our Republican Majority in the Arizona House and Senate.

We also need to be wise about the impact of data centers on our resources.

LD3 has immense water concerns. If a data center is going to come in, I favor requiring it to be a closed loop water system and to guarantee or produce its own energy and water.

Finally, I believe it is incumbent on data centers to connect with our communities more directly and address the very reasonable concerns that are being raised.

As someone who has spent much of my career advocating for Empowerment Scholarship Accounts and education freedom, the question of whether additional ‘guardrails’ should be added to our wildly successful ESA program is one I am asked often and eager to answer.

In a word - NO. Arizona’s ESA program already has significant guardrails.

I was glad to have the opportunity to give this answer in the recent Clean Elections Debate with my fellow LD3 Arizona House candidates.

Despite salacious headlines driven by anti-school choice media, our ESA program has lower levels of misspending (less than 2%) and higher levels of accountability than any other Arizona program. And it’s currently serving over 104,000 K-12 students – nearly 10% of our K-12 population. When misspending occurs, it’s never okay. But the good news (and what you won’t hear the media say) is that when misspending does happen, we’re uncovering it and recovering those dollars, thanks to the guardrails and accountability measures already in the law.

What I will always advocate for is ensuring that these scholarships are accessible to even more families so that more Arizonans can exercise the freedom to choose the setting that’s right for their child. I will also work hard to protect and expand the incredible flexibility offered to parents who use an ESA, because that flexibility is exactly what empowers a customized education.

One size doesn’t fit all. And parents know best.

When I am in the Arizona State House, I will make it a priority to ensure Arizona remains a leader in education freedom for all students.

Briana and I LOVE LD3, our home city of Scottsdale, and this beautiful state. We’re invested here for the long haul. We’re raising our kids in this community and we hope to watch our grandchildren grow up here.

That’s why we’ve given so much to this campaign since last November – and now we’re investing not just in our own race but in campaigns up and down the ballot to ensure our state is in good hands in January.

We need a Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State, Treasurer, and Superintendent of Public Instruction who believe that public safety is a top responsibility, that more money belongs in the hands of the people and less in the hands of bureaucrats, that children belong to parents, that elections should be secure and transparent, and that conservative ideas have made Arizona prosper in the past and will lead to prosperity in the future.

And we need to keep our Republican legislative majority fighting for us as they have been.

So we are personally asking you to invest.

When you invest in my campaign for AZ House in LD3, you are not only helping to send a strong conservative to represent you at the Capitol, but you’re helping me energize our critical district for every race that matters this November.

To all who have supported us thus far, we thank you.

As I always say – and firmly believe – our best days are ahead!

Just 70 days until November 3.

We need to use that time to…
+ Talk to independent voters about public safety, affordability, parental rights, education and healthcare freedom and our water future.

+ Make sure voters understand 1) why Arizona has gone from top five to bottom five for affordability in the last four years (Answer: the failed “leadership” of Governor Hobbs), and 2) why life is still better here than in blue states like California and New York (Answer: our Republican legislative Majority).

+ Energize our base to come out and support Republican candidates from the top of the ballot to the bottom.

I hope you will invest in my race and in races across Arizona. We have a state to save!

If we haven’t yet spoken face to face, I’d love to meet you. I’m looking forward to conversations about the most pressing issues facing our district and what’s at stake in the election this November.

Pop in, bring a friend or neighbor, and let’s talk!

Maricopa County’s transfer stations are places where residents can pay a small fee to dump solid waste and recyclables. The County has determined that potential closure, privatization, or “full cost recovery” (i.e. rate hikes) are on the table for the 6 Maricopa County run transfer stations, including stations here in Legislative District 3.

This past Wednesday, I attended the meeting downtown along with quite a few of you. I also heard directly from many of you by phone, email or through social media. Here’s what’s clear:

✓ Residents of our district regularly rely on these transfer stations (especially those who live in Cave Creek, Desert Hills, New River or the surrounding areas)
✓ The service by transfer station staff is excellent
✓ A closure or steep cost increase would be painful for residents

A final decision on this is not expected until early 2027.

In the meantime, I’m working with elected officials to keep resident concerns front and center, and looking into the relevant statutes governing this issue to ensure that the options being contemplated really are consistent with what’s required by law.

But I can tell you that keeping the North Valley transfer stations open is a priority, and keeping the Cave Creek station open is priority number one.

I want to hear from you on this issue and make sure we reach a solution that keeps the North Valley transfer stations open and accessible at a price point that is manageable.

Safety. Security. Health.

These are some of the endorsements I’m most proud of because they demonstrate my commitment to a strong conservative, Arizona-first, family-centered, common-sense position on each of these issues.

We want our border secure, our neighborhoods peaceful and our kids safe. Thanks to the brave men and women of law enforcement and our Fire Departments, we can rest easier at night. Backing them to do their jobs well is critical to improving that safety and security. These six law enforcement organizations and our Professional Fire Fighters of Arizona represent the best of the best!

We want access to quality healthcare, at transparent prices, with options that match our needs and desires – not bureaucratic mandates. Arizona is home to some of the profession’s finest nurses and I’m honored to have earned their trust as they serve Arizonans during their most challenging and important moments.

To see all my endorsements, spanning grassroots and elected leaders across our state, district, and cities, go to my website - link in first comment!
