Hi John,

Today, I’m officially launching my campaign to become the next Congressman for Arizona’s 2nd Congressional District because I’m tired of seeing Eli Crane betray our neighbors by voting to raise costs, bury the truth, and take away healthcare from our neighbors.

As a man driven by faith, family, and love, my campaign is about bringing people from all walks of life together to create meaningful change for our district.

In 2024, our campaign delivered one of the strongest overperformances in the nation. We had over 78,000 grassroots online donors, and put AZ-2 on the map to the point that this is now one of the DCCC’s “Districts in Play” – meaning that winning this seat is critical to taking back the House. 

Before I say more, I want you to know: the early days of a campaign can make or break it and we need to raise $104,319 to hit the ground running, fully staff up and start getting our message out. Will you help me start strong by becoming a founding donor to my campaign today?

Following my graduation from Northern Arizona University, I was elected to the Navajo Nation Council to represent my community, and I’ve been in public service ever since. I subsequently served as a county supervisor and as Vice President of the Navajo Nation before being elected President of the Navajo Nation in 2019.  I’m proud of my record of public service, leading the effort to save lives during COVID, and making major investments in clean water in Northern Arizona.

I’m running to deliver generational change, because we owe it to our children and grandchildren to leave them a future better than the one we inherited. Unfortunately, Eli Crane isn’t interested in improving the lives of our neighbors. His votes to cut healthcare and food assistance from our most vulnerable populations might go over well in the fancy suburb where Crane lives, but out here in rural Arizona, that dog won’t hunt.

I’m ready to show up in Congress as a champion for rural Arizona, but I need your support. Can you please chip in anything you can today?

Our district faces real challenges: from the rising costs of gas, food, childcare, and housing to a lack of accountability in Washington. We need a representative in Congress who’s focused on the issues here in Arizona — not the partisan squabbles of DC. Someone who will put working Arizonans first, create good jobs, lower everyday costs, support our veterans, secure Arizona’s water future, and protect the right to choose.

As the former President of Navajo Nation, I’m ready to deliver on the issues that matter most to our communities, but I can’t get there without your help. Please consider supporting my campaign today:

Thank you so much for your support,

Jonathan Nez
