TL;DR: Notable Quotes from Leader De Los Santos during the interview:
“We have multiple paths to victory, we’ve got incredibly strong candidates, and momentum is on our side.”
“Republicans tried to cut healthcare for 40,000 Arizonans, but we stopped that from happening. We took on the big data centers and ended corporate tax giveaways for them, and what we are really trying to do is draw a contrast between us and Republicans who are doing the bidding of Washington politicians like Andy Biggs.”
“If there’s anyone who is extreme in Arizona, it’s the Republicans. You talk about defunding the police; it was the Republicans who moved forward HCR 2040, which was a direct attack on police unions and would have banned and abolished all police unions in the state of Arizona, but luckily a court struck that down as unconstitutional. So if you’re looking at who’s attacking public safety and who’s attacking police officers, it’s the Republican Party.”
“The record of the Republican Party right now is that they passed the Big Beautiful Bill, H.R. 1, that cut healthcare for hundreds of thousands of Arizonans, left children and seniors hungry in order to give billionaires a tax cut.”
