Arizona your next Congressman

Andy Tobin is battle-tested. He’s done the difficult and important work of cutting taxes in Arizona and at the same time reducing state spending. Like me, he believes that job creation and prosperity come from the collective talents, energy, and hard work of the American people, not government.   Tobin is conservative. As a legislator, he has pushed individual freedoms and limited government. He helped cut state government by 22% during his time at the Capitol and has been fighting to shield Arizona from the disastrous ObamaCare law since its passage.   Now is not the time to send an unproven representative to Washington. Andy Tobin has been successfully fighting for our freedom and liberty for years. He has a good track record and we can trust his leadership.    Democratic party allies have already spent millions in Arizona’s 1st Congressional District on behalf of the incumbent. We need to make sure that our conservative candidate--Andy Tobin-- has the resources he needs to compete and win. Please take a moment and give what you can to Andy’s campaign. I hope you agree with me, we need a Congressman like Andy Tobin. Sincerely,

Federal law requires us to use our best efforts to collect and report the name, mailing address, occupation and name of employer for each individual whose contributions exceed $200 in an election cycle. Contributions from foreign nationals and corporations are prohibited.

Contributions are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes.

Can you help?Mark Benovich AZ Candidate for Attorney General

I wanted to give you a brief update on the campaign and let you know everything is going great.

I’m traveling around the state meeting with voters and the response has been overwhelming. We’ve picked up some big endorsements lately including the Arizona Right to Life PAC, U.S. Senator Jon Kyl, and numerous local and statewide elected officials.

Many of you are asking, “How can I help?” Well, there are several things you can do, including many right from the convenience of your home.

1) Sign my online petition. You can visit the Secretary of State’s website and sign my petition if you are a registered Republican or Independent. Visit this link, and have your drivers license handy.

2) Collect signatures. Are you willing to walk your neighborhood or precinct? Can you stand out in front of a public building like a library or a post office for an hour on a Saturday? If so, please reply to this email and we will get you petitions! I have to collect over 6,000 statewide signatures and the deadline is approaching fast!

3) Follow me on social media. If you haven’t already been over to our Facebook page, visited us on Twitter, or started following us on Instagram, please do so today!

4) Donate. We can’t spread our message without the help of people like you. Can you give a few dollars today? Do you have friends or family who would be willing to donate?

$5, $10, $20, $50, $100, or any amount is greatly appreciated and will go directly into my campaign to restore integrity to the Attorney General’s Office.Thank you for everything you do,

Mark

3)  Red Republican Action Team T-shirts.
4)  District and Precinct Cash Rewards for working the "Mobilize to Win" plan.
5) Pass along issue Fact Sheets -from the Action Hub.
 
The goal for all of us should be to defend our liberty. The freedom we experience as a state and nation is an inspired miracle.  We must fight to preserve this liberty and have the willingness to work.  If we work...we win!  The ground game is the battle field...lets get on the field and make it happen!!

Creating a More Business-Friendly Arizona

Building a stronger Arizona is what we all want. Bringing economic recovery, high-paying jobs and revenue to our state is the best way we can elevate Arizona and keep our standard of living high.

It is now time to figure out the best use of our resources to attract new businesses to Arizona and work to adjust our regulatory system to give Arizona the most favorable business environment possible. When companies weigh our year-round great climate, our access to interstate transportation, our well-educated workforce AND then they see a favorable regulatory environment, then those companies will want to expand into our state.

One step in building a more business-friendly environment is to provide small businesses with a bill of rights. I co-sponsored HB2260, small business bill of rights, which was signed into law by the Governor on Wednesday, April 23, 2014.

HB2260 requires state agencies to create and conspicuously post a small business bill of rights on their websites containing all applicable and agency-specific statutory rights. This bill of rights must include the process by which small businesses can file a complaint with the Ombudsman over administrative acts of government agencies.

In 1995, the office of Ombudsman-Citizens’ Aide was created as a way to make our state government more responsive to Arizona citizens. When a citizen feels they have been unfairly treated or unduly targeted by a state administrator, agency, department, board, or commission, they may contact the Ombudsman to help resolve the dispute. Now, small businesses have that same remedy.

Before HB2260, small businesses could be audited by government agencies without any sort of recourse in a system that was ripe for abuse. HB2260 is a major step in creating a business-friendly economic environment and helping to attract new businesses to Arizona. In addition, the Ombudsman must now prepare an annual report documenting the scope and severity of reported violations and abuse by state agencies.

HB2260 is a step in the right direction toward building a stronger Arizona and making our business environment more attractive to companies looking to relocate.

As the vice-chairman of the Commerce Committee, I believe that we need to create a business-friendly environment in Arizona with a favorable regulatory system that will entice businesses to relocate and bring jobs to Arizona and help grow the businesses already here. As your Secretary of State, I will work hard to continually keep Arizona front-of-mind with businesses looking to relocate.

As I run for Secretary of State, help me build a stronger Arizona, attract new businesses and jobs, and increase our state’s revenue.

Thank you.

Former AZ Senator Jon Kyl Endorses Andy Tobin for US Congress

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Senator Jon Kyl Endorses Andy Tobin for Congress

“Andy Tobin is the battle-tested conservative that rural Arizona needs...”

Citing Tobin’s battle-tested track record of fighting for Arizona’s natural resources, economic development and integrity as a lawmaker, today Senator Jon Kyl endorsed Andy Tobin’s campaign for U.S. Congress. Kyl’s endorsement comes just three days after Republican Presidential Nominee and Governor Mitt Romney endorsed Tobin’s congressional campaign.

“Andy Tobin is the battle-tested conservative that rural Arizona needs,” said Senator Jon Kyl. “In a time when strong, experienced, honest and straightforward candidates are hard to come by, Andy stands out. He has been successful in fighting for economic development opportunities, job creation and individual freedoms for Arizonans.”

Senator Kyl continues, “I’m confident Andy will be focused on the needs of Arizona, including our vital natural resources. He understands the relationship between good resource management and rural economic opportunity. Andy has been fighting to shield Arizona from the disastrous ObamaCare law since 2008, and he has fought to protect worker’s right to a secret ballot. He has proven to faithfully represent Arizona’s conservative values. Andy is a tireless worker and my choice for Congressional District One. I hope you will join me in doing all we can to send a fine Arizona conservative to Washington.”

“Senator Kyl and I go back a long way,” said Tobin. “His support for my campaign both energizes and humbles me. We both have a deep appreciation for how much work this type of undertaking requires. We have already logged thousands of miles traveling around the district and hundreds of hours on the phones seeking counsel from supporters, elected officials and grassroots activists. We’ve come a long way in Arizona. Now is the time that we must come together to send a proven conservative with a track record of advocating for Arizona to Washington. I believe that Senator Kyl’s endorsement goes a long way toward achieving our collective goal. I sincerely thank him for his support and confidence.”

ABOUT ANDY TOBIN:

Andy Tobin and his wife of 28 years, Jennifer, are the proud parents of five children- three daughters and two sons. Tobin is a small business owner who has devoted his life to positively affecting his community through job creation, public service and advocating for conservative principles. Tobin’s focus has been on creating sustainable jobs, helping small businesses succeed, building a stronger middle class and putting Arizona back on track. While serving as Speaker of the Arizona House of Representatives, Tobin drastically cut government by 25 percent, balanced Arizona’s budget and presided over the largest tax cuts in Arizona’s history, saving Arizona taxpayers millions of dollars.

Tobin has fought for your family’s freedoms, your prosperity and your community for the past six years while serving in the Arizona Legislature. He continues to lead the fight to stop the implementation of the disastrous ObamaCare. As your Representative in Congress, Andy Tobin will represent your voice, and lead the charge in fighting for you against the wasteful spending, government intrusion, and out-of-touch insiders that are taking away your freedoms.

Join Andy Tobin today!

Stand Up for Children; Mayor Scott Smith AZ Candidate for Governor

I am the only Republican candidate for Governor to support Arizona's College and Career Ready Standards. I do so because I believe we need to stand up for our children and make a genuine commitment to a better future – for them and for our state.

If you believe we need to stand up for our children too,

please click here now to join my campaign.

There has been a lot of unfortunate political rhetoric about the name of these standards. Whatever we call it, it is important to understand we are talking about standards, not curriculum.

Local control is, and remains, paramount. In fact, Arizona's College and Career Ready Standards empower local communities, schools and parents.

Arizona's College and Career Ready Standards is also a set of standards that was created by the state of Arizona with input from parents, teachers, the business community, and elected leaders.

I believe Arizona should commit to high standards of achievement that will allow all our children to have a career in an ever-competitive world. We also need to benchmark these standards and measure our performance.

As a businessman, I learned long ago that you do not improve results unless you measure performance. Arizona spends over $80 million per year in remedial education, teaching college students subjects they should have learned in high school. This is unacceptable.

The curriculum and teaching methods used to achieve high standards must be determined and implemented by local school districts, schools and teachers with parental involvement. And, our policies must put the needs of our children first.

Again, I am the only Republican candidate for Governor to support Arizona's College and Career Ready Standards. Please join my campaign to build a better Arizona by clicking here now.

What we're building

Last week we were proud to send you the news that business legend Jerry Colangelo had endorsed my campaign for governor. 

It led to this news story in the Phoenix Business Journal. 

The article also mentioned other organizations that have endorsed our campaign, though they were just the tip of the iceberg.

Over the first quarter of the year, we have set out to build the broadest coalition of supporters of any campaign.  Business leaders, social conservatives, veterans, tea party leaders, gun owners, small businesspeople, current and former elected officials, Republican party leaders, community leaders…all these and many more are part of our coalition.

They represent a broad spectrum of the Republican party and are critical to victory in August.

Check out our website and see for yourself.  For the next four months, we’ll be able to rely on a great network of supporters as we approach primary day.  It’s a great strength for our campaign, and something no other candidate can come close to replicating.

We're always looking to expand our base of supporters.  If I could ask you to do one thing with this e-mail, please invite others to join our broad coalition by sharing this on Facebook, Twitter, or forwarding it to friends by using the links below.  If everyone who receives this message forwards it to five or six friends or family members, the impact would be dramatic.  Please help by doing this, today if possible!

All the best,

Doug
