Campaign website
Taylor Robson's campaign website stated the following:[3]
| “ |
BORDER SECURITY Border security is national security. Career politicians stage photo ops at the border but get nothing done. Karrin will fight for a secure border and enforcement of our laws. No amnesty. No excuses. PLAN TO REIMAGINE EDUCATION I’m not new to Arizona education. My conservative advocacy spans decades and stretches from elementary school through higher education. ELECTION INTEGRITY Arizonans deserve free and fair elections they can believe in. That’s simply not the case today. Karrin supports common sense reforms like voter ID, a universal ban on ballot harvesting and other measures to secure the vote. PROTECTING LIFE Karrin believes in the value of every human life. She’ll fight for the rights of the preborn and to ensure Arizona remains the nation’s leader in pro-life policies. SUPPORTING VETERANS Karrin will always stand with the men and women who’ve defended our nation. BACK THE BLUE The radical Left wants to Defund the Police. Not on Karrin’s watch! She’ll be the strongest advocate for the men and women in uniform who keep our neighborhoods safe. DEFENDING OUR CONSTITUTION All rights flow from God, not the government. Karrin will fight any attempts by the radical Left to infringe on our Constitutional rights, including free speech and freedom of religion. 2ND AMENDMENT A lifetime NRA member, Karrin will oppose any efforts to infringe on the rights of law-abiding gun owners. STRONG ECONOMY As a small-business owner, Karrin knows the importance of keeping government out of the way. She’ll be a champion for small business owners and an advocate for low taxes, smart regulations, and an economy that works for ALL Arizona families. GREAT SCHOOLS Every Arizona student should have the opportunity to attend a great school – and every family should be empowered to pick the school that is best for their needs. WATER SECURITY Arguably nothing is more important to Arizona now and in the years ahead than access to a reliable water supply. As an expert in land and water use, Karrin has spent her career solving problems. She’s the innovative leader we need to secure Arizona’s water future.[4] |
