Judy Burges |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
Republican member of the
Arizona House of Representatives,
representing District 1, and a former member
of the Arizona State Senate representing
District 22. She was first appointed to the
State Senate by the Maricopa County Board of
Supervisors on January 23, 2012. Burges
previously served in the Arizona House of
Representatives, representing District 4,
from 2005 until her appointment to the State
Senate. Senator Burges chaired the
Government, Joint Legislative Audit, and
Appropriations Committees while serving in
the House and served as vice chair for
numerous other committees. In 2011, Burges
was joined by 30 Arizona Republican
lawmakers as co-sponsors of HB 2544, a bill
that required presidential candidates to
prove that they were born in the United
States, are over 35 and have resided in the
United States for at least 14 years. This
action dovetailed with the birther movement
started in 2008 repudiating Barack Obama's
natural citizenship. The measure ultimately
failed to pass. In 2013, Burges fought
against US involvement with the United
Nations initiative, Agenda 21, the Rio
declaration of environmental principles,
claiming that she would "certainly call it
communism." She further falsely claimed that
Brazil is a communist nation. In April 2014,
Burges traveled to Nevada and showed support
for rancher Cliven Bundy, who was resisting
a cattle round-up after refusing to pay
grazing fees since 1993. "I stand with
them," Burges said of the Bundy family. In
2017 Burges had an email exchange with an
elderly constituent that was widely
publicized. The constituent was asking about
HB 2404 that required petition gatherers in
initiative campaigns be paid by the hour
rather than by the signature. Within Burges
response, she called the 82-year-old widow
and longtime Scottsdale resident a "paid
troll." |

"Elected
officials
and
candidates
for
office
in 2022
continue
to
challenge
and
question
the
results
of the
2020
presidential
election
in
Arizona. |
| |
|
The
results
have
been
examined
and
re-examined,
challenged
in court
and in a
monthslong
ballot
review.
No
evidence
has been
found of
widespread
fraud or
error in
the
results. |
| |
|
Yet
candidates
deny the
outcome.
Others
don't
quite go
as far.
But they
raise
questions
about
potential
irregularities
they say
could
have
influenced
the vote
and
should
be
examined. |
| |
|
The
Arizona
Republic
is
listing
candidates
by
category
by the
race
that
they are
entered
in. This
list is
not
complete
and will
be
updated
throughout
the 2022
election
season. |

These
candidates
in
Arizona
races
deny
that Joe
Biden
won the
2020
presidential
election,
either
in
Arizona
or
nationwide." |

Shame
On Every
Republican Who Voted
To Sabotage
Arizona's Schools |
|
"It’s not surprising
that our leaders
finally broke down
and agreed to allow
the public schools
to spend money
that’s already
sitting in their
bank accounts –
money the
Legislature
appropriated last
June. What is
stunning is that 20
Republicans – 14 in
the House and six in
the Senate –
actually voted to
stiff the schools
and to heck with the
impact on the one
million Arizona
children who attend
them." |
