Issue Position: The Rule of Law

Issue Position

The Rule of Law protects us all. I've never heard an Arizonan say that they are willing to give up their rights under the US Constitution, Bill of Rights or even Arizona's Constitution. The 10th Amendment -concerning the State's Right to sovereignty and self-management- is crucial to the survival of the republic of the United States.

Equal protection and equal accountability under the law are necessary to the furtherance of our free society. Teaching our children about their rights and how their rights apply to them is critical to our State and our Nation. Alexis de Tocqueville opined that every person in America -in his day circa 1791- knew their rights and what they meant even to the edge of the frontier.

Knowing and understanding your rights creates a crucial differentiation between citizen and subject.
