We have less than two weeks

John, In less than two weeks, Arizona Republicans will pick my opponent. On July 21, they'll choose between two MAGA extremist candidates, Warren Petersen and Rodney Glassman, both of whom continue to deny the validity of the 2020 election. One of them will be on the ballot against me in November …

POLLING: This is going to be close

Hey John, The Republican primary for Arizona Attorney General is just over two weeks away — and here's what's at stake. Attorney General Kris Mayes' two opponents — Warren Petersen and Rodney Glassman — are racing to prove their loyalty to Trump. Both have pledged to drop Kris's lawsuits protectin…

Hey John, it’s Kris. I know your email inbox has blown up at this point with these kinds of messages. Well, this is the final one before our deadline. It's the end-of-quarter, and this deadline is important. Recent Supreme Court decisions and countless ongoing legal battles have only crystallized …

🚨SCOTUS’ Birthright decision: WE WON!

We've got breaking news — the Supreme Court just voted to protect birthright citizenship. I joined a coalition of states fighting to defend this 150-year-old constitutional right. And we won!! Anyone born in America is an American citizen. It has been the law of this country for a century and a ha…

Early voting has started

John, When I was elected Attorney General in 2022, it was by the narrowest margin in Arizona history: just 280 votes. That razor-thin victory shows exactly how competitive Arizona is — and it’s why every single grassroots supporter matters. National Republicans know it too, which is why they’re al…

Bracing for the worst

John, I want to be honest with you about something that scares me. A year ago, if you'd asked me whether the Supreme Court would actually let Donald Trump rewrite the 14th Amendment with an executive order, I would have told you it was unthinkable. The Citizenship Clause has stood for more than 15…

It's been four years since Dobbs. My fight hasn't slowed down.

John, Four years ago today, the Supreme Court handed down Dobbs v. Jackson, ending the federal right to abortion. I remember exactly where I was. I remember thinking about every patient in Arizona who was about to lose control over her own body — and about a Civil War-era ban from 1864, written be…

Texas Republicans just voted to ban IVF

John, as a proud mom to the best daughter in the world because of IVF, this headline hit close to home. [link removed] Their language is chilling. The platform calls in vitro fertilization a "destructive practice" that destroys "fetal life" — the very same technology that millions of Americans, in…

John, Even in the middle of a re-election campaign, my days look a lot like they always have — fighting for Arizonans in court, talking to Arizonans in-person and through the media, and taking on the big corporations and bad actors who think they can run roughshod over this state. That's what I si…

I’m back in Court

John, I’m back in Court again to take on Trump.  The president just appealed the U.S. Court of International Trade’s decision that ruled his wildly unpopular tariffs were illegal. I won’t let this slide. Not without a fight.  This month alone, inflation skyrocketed up 3.8% from April, fueled by T…

BREAKING: 2020 election deniers rise to top of AZ primary

Things are heating up in Arizona, John. New polling shows the GOP primary for Arizona Attorney General is a two-man race between Warren Petersen and Rodney Glassman — and both of them are gaining ground with Republican voters. Let me be clear: either one of them would be a disaster for this state.…

Trump wants to ban voting machines in Arizona

John, I won my 2022 race by 280 votes out of more than 2.5 million cast. Every single one of those votes was counted accurately and fairly. Arizona's elections were secure. There was no fraud. Now, Trump wants to ban the voting machines that made that process possible. Let me be direct: this is …

Hey John,  My MAGA opponent, Warren Petersen, announced he wants to redraw Arizona's maps — and he's doing it to cheat. Arizona voters created an independent commission in 2000 to ensure maps are drawn fairly, not by partisan politicians. But after the Supreme Court gutted a major part of the Vot…
