The Cochise County Board of Supervisors is scheduled to select Representative Nutt’s replacement later this week. The Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission (IRC) has issued its draft maps for Congressional and Legislative Districts for the next ten years. Over the next few weeks, they are holding public hearings and you can use this link to see the schedule. For months, we have driven record numbers of Republicans to these critically important meetings, and we cannot take our foot off the gas now. We urge you to make your voice heard by the IRC! You can get guidance on how to sign up and testify with Fair Maps Arizona. In Virginia, we saw parents speak up at school board meetings against critical race theory and mandates in their schools, and it led to big election day victories. In Arizona, we now have what looks like a “dossier” on parents in possession of the Scottsdale School Board President. This is a blatant demonstration of how serious the fight for our children is, and reveals why we must push back against the radical left in our school. We all need to stand up against this bullying of parents and our kids! The November 2nd election results were very encouraging! Republicans swept the top three statewide offices in Virginia, and in New Jersey, a number of powerful Democrat legislators were ousted. There were similar positive results across the country, with voters roundly rejecting the policies of “defund the police,” critical race theory, and the candidates that supported them. Behind the scenes, Republicans mounted a massive election integrity effort. Thousands of poll watchers were trained and deployed in Virginia and New Jersey. Hundreds of attorneys were mobilized and ready to act both before and on election day. All of these efforts were directed at making it easier to vote and harder to cheat. Here at the Republican Party of Arizona, we are laying the groundwork to have an Election Integrity Army ready for the 2022 election, which is less than twelve months away. You can sign up as a volunteer to be part of our Election Integrity Army here! With your help, we will achieve big wins as great as those we’ve seen this month and ensure that a Red Wave carries Republicans who will put America First to victory! Always America First!

According to a recent press release, the reason for the suit is that the vaccine mandate is an egregious affront to constitutionality, freedom, unity, and privacy. The Republican National Committee cited reports show 72 percent of unvaccinated workers will leave their jobs if they are required to be vaccinated. Additionally, small businesses would be required to spend thousands of dollars each week to test workers for COVID and face fines ranging between $14,000 and $136,000 for noncompliance. Excluded from the vaccine mandate are truck drivers and small business operators with fewer than 100 employees; however, the Biden administration may expand the mandate to include businesses with fewer than 100 workers. Extending the mandate to include truck drivers would only worsen the nationwide supply chain shortage.
