Collaboration. Sustainability. Innovation.
Water has always shaped Arizona, from the Grand Canyon to the canals that sustain central and southern Arizona. Now we face unprecedented challenges to Arizona’s water future. I have spent the last 12 years fighting to protect our water and the Colorado river as a member of the Central Arizona Water Conservation District Board of Directors. I have led the way on clean energy initiatives, increased transparency, and kept our focus on conservation, and I have no intention of stopping. Now, more than ever, we need dynamic and experienced leadership that balances our need for growth with the health of our natural environment. We need a renewed focus on groundwater management so that we do not counter the hard work we have done protecting the Colorado River. We need leaders who value sustainability and water security. Arizona has always risen to meet its water challenges and we can continue to do so.
