As proud Republicans and Arizonans, we have spent our careers supporting conservative principles and standing by colleagues like John McCain—who embodied values of service, integrity, and respect for democracy. Now, we find ourselves at a critical moment for our state and nation.
Today, we stand opposed to the candidacies of Donald Trump and J.D. Vance.
Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz are committed to upholding the rule of law, protecting and strengthening our democracy, and putting the needs of the American people first. We implore our fellow Arizona conservatives to join us in standing for country over party.
Donald Trump’s moral character, his actions surrounding the January 6 insurrection, and his recent comments saying Liz Cheney should have rifles ‘shooting at her’ —reveal a man who incites violence and uses dangerous rhetoric with complete disregard of the consequences. Donald Trump only cares about himself and is willing to do whatever it takes to hold onto power. General John Kelly, his own former Chief of Staff, warned that Trump was fascinated by dictatorship, and wanted “the kind of generals that Hitler had.”
Along with his ally J.D. Vance, Trump will be emboldened in a second term to simply reward MAGA loyalists and push his dangerous Project 2025 agenda that will take this country backward.
Trump’s Project 2025 agenda serves no other purpose than to give him unprecedented, unchecked power to do whatever he wants. He promises to purge the government of anyone not sufficiently loyal and replace them with his MAGA loyalists. With virtually unlimited immunity from the Supreme Court, he has threatened to terminate the Constitution to give himself more power.Our decision is not made lightly.
We have differences with Vice President Harris and Governor Walz, and expect we’ll respectfully disagree and debate policies from time to time. The alternative—another Trump presidency—is too dangerous to risk.
Trump’s cozied up to dictators like Vladimir Putin, and disregard for our allies in ways that put America’s global standing and national security at risk. At home, his chaotic, divisive actions would only further damage our communities and weaken our cherished institutions.
This is not about loyalty to a party—it’s about loyalty to our country. It’s about electing leaders who will work to bring Americans together, not tear us apart. Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz represent the kind of steady, thoughtful leadership that we need in these challenging times. We urge our fellow Republicans and independents to join us in voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz this November.
The choice before us is clear: chaos or consensus, division or unity. Vice President Harris says she will be a president for all Americans. We believe her. She is asking for our vote – and we believe she has earned it.
Let us put country over party once more and choose leaders who will make Arizona, and America, proud.
The Arizona Republicans for Harris Advisory Committee is a grass-roots organizing coalition of over 200 members to further the outreach efforts to the millions of Republican voters across the country who continue to reject the chaos, division, and violence of Donald Trump and his Project 2025 agenda.
