Issues

Campaign themes

2012

Larkin's campaign website listed the following issues:[2]

  • Getting Real About Jobs
Excerpt: "The politicians talk about jobs. But most of the time that’s all it is: talk. And too often the only job they’re concerned about is theirs."
  • Invest In Education
Excerpt: "So instead of handing out millions of dollars to corporations that don’t want or need the money, let’s invest our tax money in our public schools and colleges."
  • Small Business Help
Excerpt: "Our legislators should be ashamed of themselves for allowing a system that favors out-of-state business over our local businesses to continue. They can fix this immediately and simply by giving Arizona companies preference over companies that are out-of-state or out of the United States."
