ARIZONA
As we reported last week, our Missouri Freedom Caucus was able to force the governor to pull his nomination of a woke liberal to the State Board of Education.
This week, the Arizona Freedom Caucus has forced Democrat Governor Katie Hobbs to withdraw not one, but TWO nominations for agency positions.
One of them was Jennifer Cunico - Hobbs' pick to lead the Department of Health Services.
As chairman of the committee that considers nominations, here is how AZFC Chairman Jake Hoffman described his meeting with Cunico:
During this meeting, Jennifer Cunico double and tripled down on the systemic failures of public health officials during the COVID years, even going so far as to defend policies that even the CDC and WHO have now admitted were wrong and not rooted in science. During this meeting she was dishonest, combative, engaged in doublespeak, and out of touch with the priorities of the Arizona people.
Arizona, as with our other state freedom caucuses, continue to be the guard dogs against woke liberal appointments!
