A strong economy is directly tied to great schools. By investing in our schools, we can attract new job creators. Arizona is naturally attractive to businesses because of the great climate, but employers demand a well educated workforce so they can remain competitive in the global economy. Supporting our students will create more employment opportunities for graduates, keeping the knowledge and resources invested in our students in Arizona. 
Investing in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) courses will create advanced education programs and allow Arizona to keep and attract innovative businesses. Trade and technology are the future of the state economy.
Great jobs and growing businesses are also dependent on a competitive tax structure. By keeping our tax rate low, and ultimately reducing the amount Arizonans pay in taxes, companies will be encouraged to locate to the state. While attracting big businesses to our district is great, the backbone of the state economy are the community and small businesses. Investing in job training and incentivizing growth and company investment will produce healthy companies, a stable economy, and happy employees.
Regulation stifles innovation, so eliminating barriers for entrepreneurs to start a business. Government must get out of the way and lawmakers should not legislate local business practices. The duty of our elected officials is to provide the framework and infrastructure for growth, not dictate how businesses should operate.
