America First Arizona

To know Arizona, one need look no further than the image of the phoenix, of the fiery sprawling deserts at dawn, of its mountains and plateaus and mesas. This land has been inhabited for thousands of years and continues to build itself into something greater. From the Grand Canyon to its Douglas fir forests, from its orange groves to its cattle ranches, Arizona has long captivated the imagination. Arizona is at the very heart of the American West, its natural beauty matched only by its diverse population and maverick spirit.

During the last several years, Arizona has become a haven of sound policy and good governance. Families and businesses seeking to exit the continued upheaval in California have flocked to the state. Today, the state’s capital, Phoenix, is the fifth-largest city in the country, and the state is now one of the fastest growing in the Nation. Arizona has been on the forefront of good policy for many years, but Arizona has more work to do to remain great and ensure its plethora of new residents do not bring the failed policies of other states with them.

The America First Policy Institute, a nonprofit, non-partisan research institute that educates lawmakers and the American public on the policies that put America first, has founded a new state chapter in Arizona. Building on AFPI’s America First Agenda, the Arizona chapter aims to keep the state as an example to the Nation and advance strong policies that work for all Arizonans.
