“Throughout
Hugh's public career, he has analyzed complex issues and challenges and has

Bitter-Smith said. “What a great skill set for Arizona's next Treasurer to
have!”
Supervisor Barney said that Hallman’s work in the public
and private sector make him the right conservative for the Office of State
Treasurer.
“His record of advocating for smaller government
that is accountable to the people is what we need at the state level,” he
said. “His experience cutting government budgets as Mayor of Tempe and as
regional Treasurer for the Maricopa Association of Governments is a record we
can count on.”
Mayor Lord praised Hallman’s leadership on
regional issues during his time as Mayor and said it’s important to have someone
with that kind of experience serving in statewide office.
“Hugh
Hallman understands what is important to Arizona’s communities in making sure we
can provide services to our residents with a focus on fiscal responsibility,”
she said. “I am proud to support his campaign for Arizona State Treasurer and
know he will serve the people of our state well in managing our state’s assets
and tax dollars.”
Hallman said he is grateful for the support
of these statewide leaders and looks forward to ensuring their trust is well
placed through his service as State Treasurer.
“We’ve been pleased and
gratified by the support we have received from leaders throughout our state,” he
said. “As we start to enter the home stretch of the campaign we look forward to
sharing our vision for the State Treasurer’s office and showing why these
leaders have been so supportive of our campaign.”
