As your State Senator I pledge to...
Immigration
The fundamental responsibility of government is to protect our citizens and enforce the rule of law. Unfortunately, when it comes to illegal immigration, the federal government is either unwilling or unable to do either one. It is time for Arizona to take control of our own borders. With more than 12 million illegal immigrants in America, and thousands more coming each week, we must act to fix this ever-growing problem. Illegal immigration costs us billions of tax dollars every single year as our schools, hospitals, law enforcement and roads are stretched to capacity. And nothing is more important than the safety of our citizens. We must make sure our borders are secure and drug traffickers, criminals and terrorists are put behind bars – where they belong. More »
Lower Taxes
Steve Pierce will put his years of business experience to work for us – opposing special interest pork barrel projects and reducing our tax burden. To make sure Arizona’s economy comes back strong, Steve will work tirelessly against rising property taxes.
Property Rights
Water is our most precious commodity. Burdensome and unnecessary regulations limit our ability to access the water we need to raise our families, create jobs, and keep rural Arizona thriving. Steve Pierce will fight for us to own the rights to the water we use, creating a strong incentive for conservation. Steve will defend our property rights against government regulations and eminent domain abuse.
Improve Our Roads
Steve Pierce will work hard to improve rural Arizona’s roads without raising taxes. Rural Arizona has serious transportation needs vital to our economic well-being. Steve Pierce will make sure rural Arizona gets our fair share of transportation dollars.
Promote School Choice
Steve Pierce believes parents deserve more choice in their children’s education and all schools – public, private, charter, and home schools – must be allowed to thrive with the very best teachers and principals. Steve Pierce will work hard to ensure that Arizona’s education system is competitive and the money is well spent in the classroom.
Modernize Forest Management
As a rancher, Steve Pierce understands the urgent need for improved forest management. To preserve Arizona’s natural resources for future generations and enhance our watershed, rural Arizona needs direction from experts on the latest techniques that can prevent raging forest fires.
