Kevin's Priorities

Higher costs of living in housing, energy, and food are eating away at our incomes and hurting our quality of life.Instead of slogans and budget gimmicks, we need to focus on solutions that will bring down the costs of living over the long-term - unlocking housing innovation and affordability, applying technology to bring down energy costs, and increasing the efficiency of our state's agriculture.

Write a short blurb about an issue your campaign is highlighting. Try to keep the text a similar size between the various issue blurbs.

Bring Living Costs Down

In our district and across the state, we have incredible schools - whether community, charter, or private.&nbsp; But too many children are in schools that aren't equipped to give them the opportunity to succeed.We need to expand access to high-quality early childhood education and kindergarten to attack the achievement gap early and give parents the freedom to enter the workforce if they choose to.&nbsp; We need to pay teachers a wage that matches their importance and fully staff our schools.&nbsp; And we need to track all state spending to make sure our taxpayer dollars are doing the most good for our children and families.

Invest in Education

Tucson has been a leader in groundwater management for decades.&nbsp; Meanwhile, the state has kicked the can down the road for decades, threatening our water future.We must take action to incentivize smarter water usage, invest in high-return technologies for water conservation, and work on diversifying our water supply for the long term.&nbsp;

Secure our Water Future

Reproductive freedom is under attack in&nbsp;Arizona.&nbsp; With the overturning of Roe v. Wade, extreme legislators and special interest groups are advocating for banning abortions, even going so far as to push for the return of laws that were passed before we became a state!Here in Arizona, we believe strongly in individual freedom.&nbsp; That includes the right of individuals to make reproductive and health care decisions with their doctor and their loved ones, free from government interference.&nbsp; We must restore and protect reproductive freedom so that every person can make this deeply personal decision.
