Jim Cleveland (R)
Family Education: I support parents as the primary decision maker for their children's education. I support Educational freedom, allowing parents to choose the educational option for their children. The racism and bigotry of CRT, the hyper-sexualization of children and hateful anti-American curriculum have no place in Arizona schools. I will support and advocate for complete transparency in our schools, parent have a right to know what is being taught and presented at their children's schools. I also support the placement of armed law enforcement on campus to protect our children and teachers. Finally I support a strong and vibrant vocational training program in our schools to prepare the next generation for economic prosperity.
Family Economy: Too many families are living pay check to pay check. I support free market policies that have been proven to create high wage jobs. I support the mining, ranching, farming, tourism and retirement industries; the 5 C's (Copper, Cattle, Cotton, Citrus, and Climate) on which our Arizona economy is based. I also support the creation of manufacturing and distribution facilities in our border counties to increase economic opportunities. Thousands of high paying jobs are within reach if companies are allowed to responsibly operate in our state.,

Jim Cleveland (R)
