Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

Elijah Norton is an American businessman and politician. He is currently seeking the Republican nomination for Arizona’s 6th congressional district in a primary race against incumbent Congressman David Schwiekert.

Elijah grew up in the northern suburbs of Kansas City, Missouri. He attended the University of Missouri-Kansas City, where he achieved a bachelor’s degree in Political Science. During college, Elijah started his first business with $1,000 he had saved up. He worked and grew the business throughout college. In 2015, Elijah opened a second office in the Phoenix, Arizona metropolitan area. In 2021, Elijah’s collective group of businesses, including Phoenix-based Veritas Global Protection Services, INC an international Finance and Insurance administrative insurance business generated over $100MM per year in revenue and employed over 100 people.

In July of 2021, Elijah formed a committee to challenge Congressman David Schweikert for Arizona’s 6th Congressional District. In 2020, Schweikert admitted to committing 11 ethics violations, was unanimously reprimanded by the United States House of Representatives and was ordered to pay a $50,000 fine. Norton is looking forward to bringing ethical Conservative leadership back to the Northeast Valley.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Will bring Conservative ethical leadership back to the northeast valley, corrupt career politician should be fired.
• Will bring actual healthcare insurance solutions to Washington, something Republicans have failed to do for decades.
• I'm a businessman and political outsider, we need people in Washington that understand how the real world functions. I intend to term-limit myself to eight years, I do not want to get too comfortable in my DC office and fail to do the job I was elected for, much like other career politicians. I will donate my salary to charities in the Northeast Valley and not participate in the Congressional pension program.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I'm a real Conservative. I will fight to secure our border, the illegal immigration crisis must be stopped. I will reduce taxes and bureaucratic red tape and regulations. And I will also be tough on China, one of the biggest ongoing threats the United States faces.

Defamation lawsuit over David Schweikert's 2022 campaign

In February 2023, Elijah Norton sued David Schweikert’s 2022 campaign and associated political consultants over advertisements that implied Norton was gay. In late 2023, Norton reached a settlement with the Schweikert campaign. Political consultant Jonathan Huey also reached a settlement with Norton, in May 2024, for $50,000.
