“Whether it’s lowering costs, securing the border, protecting our water, investing in education, or workforce, and continue to create good-paying jobs, I’m 100% focused on that. I know that my Republican opposition has continued to double down on Washington’s cost-hiking agenda that is raising costs for Arizonans all over the place, so I’m gonna continue to put Arizona first,” Hobbs said.

Also in attendance was CD6 Candidate Joanna Mendoza, who responded to attacks on her campaign.

“No matter what you do or what you say, the people of this district want true representation, and what you do with your attacks and try to scare me, I’ve been through hell and back, and I’ll do it again for this community,” Mendoza said.
