Get StartedI’m devastated and outraged by the Court’s decision, but I am more motivated than ever to fight like hell to protect reproductive rights and ALL rights! We must fight to protect marriage equality and contraception – Justice Thomas today invited challenges to those rights, too, and we can see the out-of-touch majority going along. We are NOT going back to the 18th century. That’s why Arizona’s response must be to organize, vote and act to amend Arizona’s Constitution to protect our rights in the 21st century. Learn more
It is not good enough to simply protect things. We also need to move forward and make things better… on so many fronts. We need to continue bending the arc towards justice, we need to expand civil rights, and we need to continue making Arizona a state where both businesses and people will want to be and stay.

Arizona needs a strong educational system. Except for a brief Red for Ed period, public schools have been under sustained attack at the Legislature. As a result, Arizona currently ranks 49th among states for per-pupil funding. Paul will work to protect public education’s current funding by opposing efforts to shift public tax dollars from public to charter schools through vouchers and by challenging other legislation that threatens school funding. He will also work with his colleagues to find ways to improve public education for all of Arizona’s children. Learn more
Our Legislature must take a leadership role in combatting the climate crisis—enacting policies that encourage renewable energy and other green solutions, protecting natural places, managing our ever-shrinking water reservoirs. Both the groundwater and drought contingency plans need updating, a process that will require serious diplomacy. We have a moral responsibility to preserve this beautiful planet for our children, grandchildren, and future generations. Learn more
Paul will continue to fight against those who undermine our elections with unfounded claims of fraud and then use those claims as an excuse to make voting more difficult under the guise of “security.” He believes these efforts are a form of voter suppression. Paul has also been at the forefront of reporting on the mushrooming use of “dark money” in Arizona elections, and other campaign finance issues. Paul plans to be an effective force in passing the Stop Dark Money Initiative and other laws aimed at increasing election transparency and accountability. Learn more
Paul believes we need to take action now to strengthen Arizona’s laws and address the growing epidemic of gun violence by enacting common sense gun control measures to protect our safety and quality of life. These measures include universal background checks, red flag laws, a ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, preventing those with mental illness from buying a gun, and safe storage requirements - all of which the vast majority of Americans - and Arizonans - support.
