Conservative Leader Brenda Burns
Endorses Mark Brnovich
for Attorney
General
Today, Republican candidate for Attorney General Mark Brnovich received the endorsement of current Arizona Corporation Commissioner and former Arizona Senate President Brenda Burns. Commissioner Burns remarked:
“During my 16 years in the Arizona State
Legislature, I often fought the overreach of the federal government. As an
elected member of the Corporation Commission, I have seen how federal government
policies have raised rates for water and electricity in Arizona. We need an
Attorney General that will protect our state's rights. Mark Brnovich will stand
up to the burdensome EPA. He did a great job as Director of the Center for
Constitutional Government at the Goldwater Institute, an organization that I
consider to be a valuable voice in Arizona.”
Burns continued:
“Mark's experience as an Army JAG, Maricopa
County prosecutor and Assistant United States Attorney make him eminently
qualified to be Arizona's Attorney General. I enthusiastically endorse his
candidacy."
As an owner/manager of a family business, Brenda learned firsthand the impact that laws, rules and regulations can have on any small businesses’ ability to create jobs and succeed. Brenda Burns’ business experience was invaluable when she began her distinguished career of representing Arizonans. She served in the Arizona House of Representatives from 1987 to 1995. In 1993, House Republicans elected Brenda to be their majority leader, making her the first Arizona woman to hold the position. Brenda served eight years in the Arizona State Senate, from 1995 to 2003. In 1997, she became the first Arizona woman to be elected Arizona Senate President.
Mark Brnovich remarked:
“Brenda understands what serving the people
of Arizona truly means. She knows firsthand the crippling effect the federal
government can have on businesses and the private sector. As Attorney General, I
will be diligent in my efforts to fight back against job-killing policies and
defend Arizona and the Tenth Amendment.”
