John, I just finished delivering my second State of the State address.

During my speech, I highlighted many of our accomplishments over the last year and explained how I plan to build on those achievements in the coming months to make Arizona an even better place to live, work, and raise a family.

Before I share more, can you pitch in to support my work today? To keep moving Arizona forward, I’m depending on members of this grassroots team to fuel our efforts.

Now, onto the fun part! Here are a few of last year’s big wins:

💰 We created over 56,000 jobs last year, and more Arizonans are employed now than ever before.

🏫 We passed a bipartisan budget that invested $210 million in affordable housing and $730 million in improving public schools across the state.

🏥 We took action to protect reproductive freedom by expanding contraception access and ensuring doctors are safe from being prosecuted for providing abortion care.

And here are some of my top priorities for this year:

🛑 Combat the fentanyl epidemic by investing millions of dollars in expanding counterdrug operations, launching a statewide fentanyl awareness campaign, and distributing life-saving medication to first responders that can reverse an overdose.

💧 Secure Arizona’s water future by building on last year’s progress and updating water management laws after 40 years of inaction.

✏️ Fix the ESA program by increasing transparency and accountability so that taxpayer dollars aren’t wasted on frivolous expenses.

🩺 Increase accountability in healthcare licensing by setting standards for certifications to ensure all Arizonans receive quality care.

💊 Expand access to affordable prescription drugs by stopping price gouging, requiring advance notice for price increases, and establishing a new division dedicated to capping costs on commonly used drugs.

🏡 Make housing more affordable for middle-class Arizonans by expanding down payment assistance and mortgage interest rate relief for qualifying families and increasing support for low- and middle-income homebuyers.

As you can see, when we work together, we get big things done for Arizona — and we will continue to do even more for our state by standing strong in the face of extremism and division.

John, can I count on you to support my work as we kick off another year?
