If you are a PC who is nervous going door to door, or having difficulty for any reason getting the 20 petition signatures (10 minimum but go for 20) from republican voters in your precinct, a PC & Spouse Signing Party is a great way to put yourself over the finish line.
How exactly does this work? At your next LD meeting or simply with contact information you hopefully have gathered or by working with your Precinct Captain, plan a PC & Spouse Signing Party. At this event, every PC will bring a spouse or family/friend who also lives in your PC and everyone will spend an hour signing the petitions of everyone else. Make it fun by adding some wine and appetizers in a potluck style and take the time to get to know each other.
Remember, the deadline to submit your forms is April 4th.

Thank you to everyone! The America First slate won 4 of the 5 slots in a Landslide Victory at the January 8th Mandatory Meeting for the MCRC Member at Large. The Executive board has been updated here: https://maricopagop.org/executive-board/
by Brian Ference | News
During the January 8th MCRC Mandatory Meeting for PCs,
Vote for the 5 MAL Candidates You Can Trust!
It is time for the Republican Party to unite, but to unite behind new, America First leadership. The establishment, progressives were asleep at the wheel and allowed our country to be destroyed. They gave the democrats everything they wanted and did nothing with no consequences. These weak republicans need to admit their mistakes and follow new, strong, America First leadership.
Vote for the 5 Members at Large you can truly trust: Liz Harris, Brian Ference, Kevin Beamon, Lawrence Hudson, and Joanie Carlson

On December 14th, Legislative District 15 voted to censure David S. Schweikert and Debra Kay Lesko, two Republican Members of the US House of Representatives who voted against the will of the American People and all other members of the Freedom Caucus. They chose instead to side with unanimous democrats for the fiscally irresponsible, $440 million dollar, democrat sponsored, HR 550 Immunization Infrastructure Modernization Act of 2021. HR 550 violates the Medical Privacy and Constitutional Rights of the American People by “improving the secure biderectional exchange of immunization record data among Federal, State, local, Tribal and territorial governmental entities and non-governmental entities”. This Bill provides additional funding for and creates the needed infrastructure to facilitate vaccine passports and further violate freedom and liberties. As noted in Frosty’s Brief’s, Paul Goser voted against the bill saying “The bill will allow the federal government to track unvaccinated Americans, who could be targeted, segregated, and forced to comply with vaccination mandates.” The full text of the bill is only 7 pages long and can be easily read here: https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/550/text?r=6&s=1

Thank you to everyone! The Bond was SOUNDLY defeated and the district and board will now have to be held more accountable to the parents!
Taxpayers are currently paying for the CCUSD 2014 bond until 2030. Send a message to the Governing Board, Vote NO on the CCUSD Bond!
Reasons to Vote NO:
- Fiscally Irresponsible. Passing the bond will result in 2 simultaneous bond taxes.
- 2 of 5 Board Members voted NO
- CCUSD has received excessive federal stimulus funding already with no indication on how these monies will be used
- Enrollments continue to decline as the district fails to listen to the needs of its students
- Previous bond money has been used on projects not approved by voters resulting in a successful lawsuit against the District and costing taxpayers litigation fees
- An additional fleet of busses for field trips is unnecessary
- The district significantly increased sports facility rental fees in 2021 and passed these on to the residents.
- Includes paying off $11 Million in solar panels early with no indication where that money will then be allocated.
- CCUSD needs to remove the bylaw that disallows parents from having civil discourse with the school board. As long as they keep shutting parents out, the school district will continue to struggle to maintain student enrollment numbers that they need.
- CCUSD needs to listen to the residents that pay their way! Until then, we cannot support the CCUSD Bond. Vote NO!
