Ann Kirkpatrick cares deeply about the quality of education in our state. During her freshman term, she visited our schools on the San Carlos Apache Reservation. She also secured additional funding for a job training pilot program focused on at-risk youth in our community. In addition, she made it a priority to talk to our students during a visit to Washington, D.C. As a school administrator, I agree we must invest in our future, which is why I am pleased to endorse Ann Kirkpatrick.
She fights for women, workers, and students!
Ann is focused on the issues important to Arizona: Jobs, jobs, jobs. She has the leadership qualities to make things happen.
I am a Republican woman who supports Ann because of her strong stand for education, women, accountability in schools, and her willingness to be a true stateswoman, representing all of the citizens of Arizona.
I endorse Ann, because she is a person who works for all the people of her district and she truly cares about improving Arizona and our nation for the future. We need Ann. Dawn Knight, Arizona Native
She is a very highly qualified candidate and a good person (not often found in Congress) who did an exceptional job in her first 2 years as a congresswomen. We need her in order to complete the important initiatives she began when in office.
Ann has the experience, knowledge and intelligence to fight in Washington to protect Social Security,Medicare and Medicaid. She will work hard to protect Arizona's natural beauty, clean air and water. She will be there for the poor and the working families of Arizona. Ann will work hard to create good paying jobs. And, Ann will take a stand to protect and promote women's rights and equality from attack.
Ann is a great person of integrity, compassion, and understanding of the challenges the working men and women of Arizona and especially the huge CD 1, face now and into the future. She will be a voice of reason and a vote for the middle class and the rising class of Arizona.
I support Ann because she is a centrist who always seeks common ground to solve our myriad problems. She was born and raised in the district and has a deep understanding of the issues that confront us.
Ann K. has a truly balanced rational view of the common person's economic needs, real meaningful job creation, a very realistic environmental issues view, creating solid tax revenue and spend-managing tax money efficiently, she believes in a level playing field for all citizens no matter what age, ethnicity. (She has a sincere agenda to improve all Natives peoples' lives) or whatever political affiliation they are. Bottom line- Ann K. loses and it's back to the stone age we all go.
Experience in Congress and vision for Arizona and her constituents, because she knows and understands our state.
Ann is Arizona! Born and raised in the district, proven leader at the state and congressional level, she has provided much-needed leadership for our state.
I endorse Ann because I am Democrat and she is the candidate that alligns best with my ideals and principles.
Stalwart supporter of middle class. Energetic representative of the underdog rather than money interests.
I have worked with Ann for years since she first was elected to the AZ State Legislature where she always stood up for the children & future of AZ. No matter the educational issue Ann was a leader on these issues even before I would contact her. She also has a great record on human and civil rights which are important issues to myself. Ann is and will be again a great voice for Northern AZ!!!
I have known Ann for 30 years and she has always been a person that I would like to have on my side in the toughest of times. She is honest and knows how communicate and get things done. I can not think of any one better to represent the people of Arizona.... ALL the people of Arizona!

We need strong female leaders in AZ that will stand as role models for our daughters. She is articulate and thoughtful when she shares her views and always strives to represent a moderate approach that speaks to the diversity of AZ.
I believe in Ann's judgment to make the right decisions for our country and our state. She is pro-choice, which is very important to me and she shares my belief that health care should be affordable and available to all. She will truly represent all the people of her district regardless of their socio-economic standing, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity or color.
Ann has the right vision and is the best leader for Greater Arizona.

I have met Ann a number of times. She is a person who wants to use her formidable talents to serve the people of Arizona with humility and honor.

I want her to help solve America's problems and fully endorse her candidacy.

Ann supports what the constituents in her district need and want. She has not shown me any willingness to roll over to strong opposition in order to further a different cause.
Ann reconnects politics to the people that it is supposed to serve. Her campaign reflects the core values of our democracy.
Hers is a voice of sanity, reason and common sense which is sorely lacking in our district. The "special interest" she will represent is her constituents - ALL of them. Arizona, and indeed, the entire country, needs Ann in the House of Representatives.
Ann Kirkpatrick represents the values and concerns of people who care about one another and taking care of our planet for the following generations.
Ann is far and away the best choice for Northern Arizona. Her values reflect those who live in her district and she will put the country's interests ahead of her own. I enthusiastically endorse her.

As a Firefighter/Paramedic in Arizona, I know Ann will support issues that are important to public safety. I put my life on the line for the citizens of Arizona and know Ann will work hard for all of us.
Ann's two years in Congress benefited Arizona in ways that her Republican opponents in the House never could because the Republican candidates were bought and paid for by a small segment of the citizens of our state. When Ann is sent back to Congress, all Arizonans will benefit, not just the favored few.
Ann has always voted for the people of Arizona. She has NEVER taken the easy way out. She voted yes on the hard issues if it was in the best interests of Arizona and its people. Ann can be trusted.
Ann Kirkpatrick made good, positive progress in her first freshman term and I want to help her get back so that she can continue doing smart things for the citizens of northeastern Arizona. I know that she will be an asset to us regular people. Our rural citizens need jobs, Social Security and Medicare protection and environmental improvements. She will do that to the best of her ability. My family and I know it.
While she was in the AZ Legislature, she always had an open door policy. She was easily accessible to her constituents. While she was in Congress, Ann continued to fight on the same issues she did when she was in the AZ Legislature: Protecting Children, Working Families, Jobs and funding for Education.

"She's a woman for the people and by the people. Ann is honest and down to earth."
"Ann has intelligence, thougtfulness and a balanced approach to all issues."
"I was impressed with the work Ann did in her original term. The current representative has totally opposite views from everything I believe in. When I have emailed his office regarding an issue, the most typical response is an automatic email stating how busy his office is. I supported Ann in the past and I like what she stands for. Unlike Paul Gosar she works for Arizona. She will also work to protect Medicare and Social Security."
"I support Ann Kirkpatrick because she understands the needs of rural Arizona."
"I strongly support Ann. She makes herself available, she comes from a rural area but has "big city" talent and is not arrogant."
