Legislative District 18

OPINION: "As long as they can control our bodies, they control our lives," writes Nancy Gutierrez, a Democratic candidate for the Arizona House of Representatives in LD 18. 

OPINION: "I was a text book salesperson in 2002 in California. I sold books to middle and high schools. These were high-quality books with new literature and state standards built into them. When I got to my current school in 2013, I was shocked to see those very same books that were from 2002 on the shelves of the English classrooms," writes Nancy Gutierrez, a teacher in TUSD and a candidate for the Arizona House in LD 18.

OPINION: "I share the voters’ concerns, for I was recently pregnant. I had my second child almost four months ago, and watched with concern–bordering on panic–as our state Legislature passed laws during my pregnancy impacting the health care I could receive," writes Priya Sundareshan, candidate for Arizona Senate in Legislative District 18. 

OPINION: "Our elections are secure. But at the state Legislature, the Big Lie of election fraud persists. We can ask Gov. Ducey to veto these bills, but he has not yet rejected a voter suppression bill sent to him. Make no mistake - we need a new Legislature with a Democratic majority if we are going to escape this whirlpool of lies," writes Priya Sundareshan, candidate for the Arizona Senate in LD 18.
