Topics
David Livingston: 本人拥有超过十年的亚利桑那州众议院和参议院的从政经验，曾担任多个重要委员会的主席，包括财政委员会、交通委员会、银行委员会等。在从政之前，本人拥有二十多年的财务管理经验，这为竞选亚利桑那州财政部长提供了坚实的基础。本人致力于改善亚利桑那州的资金管理，降低税负，并为州政府、城市和县政府提供最佳的资金管理实践。在养老金改革方面，本人推动了一项法案，向亚利桑那州养老金系统注资10亿美元，以偿还债务并节省未来的支出。本人认为，平衡州预算是一项复杂的任务，需要技巧和避免政府的“花招”。在教育方面，本人认为亚利桑那州的K-12学校获得了创纪录的资金，但学校董事会并没有给教师大幅加薪，需要更好地向家长宣传学校资金的使用情况和决策过程。共和党需要更多地参与学校董事会选举，以影响学校的决策。学校董事会需要更多具有商业和金融背景的人员，以更好地管理学校的资金。 Chuck Warren: 亚利桑那州财政部长职位需要一位了解投资和理财的人来担任，有效的资金管理可以减少向亚利桑那州公民征税的需要。共和党需要更多地参与学校董事会选举，以影响学校的决策。学校董事会需要更多具有商业和金融背景的人员，以更好地管理学校的资金。 Sam Stone: 需要更好地向家长宣传学校资金的使用情况和决策过程。对凤凰城警察局的调查是削弱警力的借口，而不是对警务行为的真正关注。政府不太可能再次实施封锁，因为上次的封锁措施不受欢迎。需要对公众进行教育，以纠正对COVID-19死亡人数的夸大宣传。
