What's
Behind
Republican Matt
Salmon's
Venomous
Attack On
Arizona
Teachers? |
|
"Then, last
week, GOP
gubernatorial
candidate Matt
Salmon called
the teachers
union “a
scourge on
our
society.” He
also sent a
press
release
announcing
his response
to a
questionnaire
from the
Arizona
Education
Association,
saying, “I
hope that
this
statement
answers the
final item
in your
questionnaire
asking what
kind of
‘relationship’
I anticipate
having with
the AEA as
Arizona’s
next
governor: A
confrontational
one.”" |

Matt Salmon
Returns To
Gubernatorial
Arena,
Launches
2022
Campaign |
|
"Former
Republican
Congressman Matt
Salmon is
running for
governor,
looking to
win the
prize that
eluded him
20 years ago
in one of
Arizona’s
closest
gubernatorial
elections.
“Today, the
Arizona
values we
cherish are
under attack
from
Washington
and liberals
here at
home. Open
borders and
closed
classrooms,
crushing tax
hikes and
socialism,
censorship
and cancel
culture. The
radical
Democrats
are pushing
the most
far-left
agenda in
our
lifetime,”
Salmon said
in a press
statement.
“We can’t
allow
liberal
politicians
to turn
Arizona into
California.
We must
protect the
values that
have made
Arizona a
beacon of
opportunity.”
[...] In
2002, Salmon
was the GOP
nominee for
governor,
falling
short to
Democrat
Janet
Napolitano""* |

that Mr.
Salmon has

Matt Salmon
Is Wrong To
Turn
Children
Away |
|
"Rep. Matt
Salmon has
introduced
H.R. 5052,
the
"Expedited
Family
Reunification
Act," a
shameful
bill that
seeks to
speed up the
deportation
of Central
American
children to
the
countries
they fled
because of
wide-spread
violence and
fear.
Salmon's
characterizes
this bill as
fixing
"loopholes"
in the
immigration
system. He
portrays
this as a
compassionate
act, aimed
to protect
children,
but that is
deeply out
of touch
with the
reality." |

Is
Congressman
Matt Salmon
Really
Loving His
Gay Son
While
Working
Against His
Son’s
Rights? |
|
"The
discussion
was sparked
by an “It
Gets Better”
video by
Matt R.
Salmon, a
young gay
man who
expressed
deep pain
and sadness
over the
fact that
his father,
Rep. Matt
J. Salmon (R-Ariz.),
a devout
Mormon, does
not support
marriage
equality
despite
telling an
Arizona TV
interviewer
that he
loves his
son “more
than I can
say.” The
congressman
not only
said that he
doesn’t
support “the
gay
marriage”
but has
voted
anti-gay,
including
voting for
the Defense
of Marriage
Act (DOMA),
which he
still
supports.
Meanwhile,
in 2006, his
wife, Nancy
Salmon,
actually
headed a
group that
spearheaded
the hateful
campaign in
Arizona to
pass a
ballot
measure that
would have
banned gay
marriage,
civil unions
and domestic
partnerships." |
