Chop Wood, Carry Arizona 10/5

Hey, Team Arizona!

I just wanted to quickly share some info with you all from Joshua Polacheck’s campaign- this is a super important race, so do what you can!

Joshua Polacheck is a Democratic candidate running for Arizona Corporation Commissioner, along with two other strong fighters for Arizona’s middle-class: Jonathan Hill and Ylenia Aguilar. Arizona is one of the minority states that get to elect their commission overseeing their state’s utilities. 

With record breaking heat, soaring utility costs and decreasing energy reliability, Arizona’s race for Corporation Commission just might be the most important statewide clean energy race in the country!  

Endorsed by AFL-CIO, Smart Local Union 359, AFSCME, Jane Fonda Climate Pac, Sierra Club, Stonewall Dems, LGBTQ+ Victory fund and more, Polacheck and his running mates are up against three MAGA Republican challengers: Rene Lopez, Rachel Walden and incumbent Lea Marquez Peterson; all vying for seats currently held in a 4-1 Republican majority. With 5 seats total, winners will serve alongside Republicans Kevin Thompson, a former natural gas lobbyist, and Nick Meyer, who will remain until 2027. 

This race needs our support! This is a small but important campaign, every dollar counts! You can donate here. You can sign-up to canvas on Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays & phone bank or volunteer. Joshua will be at the Flagstaff Democracy Fair on Oct 5th. You can also attend his Oct 11th House Party/Fundraiser.

And, before I wrap it up, I would be remiss if I didn’t remind you all that you can still write letters with Vote Forward!!! Click here to do so- their voter turnout campaign in AZ is active from now until October 29, so send ASAP!

Thanks, all! More soon.
