Andy Biggs

Republican Party (R)
Governor · Arizona, United States of America · 2026
PurposeAndy Biggs, a sitting U.S. Representative, is running as the Republican challenger seeking to unseat incumbent Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs in Arizona.

Economy
On the economy, the campaign calls for eliminating the state income tax, reducing the property-tax burden in partnership with localities, streamlining permitting for home construction, bringing down energy costs (including through nuclear power), reducing dependence on California for fuel supply, blocking corporate purchases of single-family homes, and repealing what it calls "job-killing regulations."

Health
On health, the campaign's positions center on medical freedom: ending vaccine mandates, making ivermectin available over the counter, allowing SNAP-restricted purchases of soda and junk food to be curtailed, permitting Arizona dairies to sell raw milk, requiring nutrition education in medical schools, and creating naturopathic-provider accreditation standards.

Agriculture/Food
Overlapping with its health-freedom section, the platform supports allowing raw-milk sales from Arizona dairies and encouraging organic food production.

Security
On public safety, the campaign proposes reconvening a multi-agency "Border Strike Force" targeting human and drug trafficking, better recruitment and retention for law enforcement and corrections officers, full funding for the state's Department of Public Safety troopers, fully funded school-security programs, and participation in the federal 287(g) immigration-enforcement program.

Immigration
The platform's border and public-safety sections are largely immigration-focused: reviving a multi-level Border Strike Force and enrolling state and local law enforcement in the federal 287(g) program to help enforce immigration law.

Education
On education, the campaign backs opting into a federal education tax credit, protecting Arizona's Empowerment Scholarship Account school-choice program, prioritizing reading, writing, and math over what it calls diversity-focused instruction, and building stronger links between trade schools, community colleges, universities, and employers.

Infrastructure
On natural resources, the platform calls for a long-term water strategy and defending Arizona's Colorado River allocation, better measurement and reporting on the state's aquifers, joint state-federal forest management to reduce wildfire risk, and expanded energy supply including nuclear power.

Governance
On government accountability, the campaign proposes reviewing agencies and programs to cut waste and fraud, requiring companies bidding on state contracts to disclose political contributions, banning foreign contributions to campaigns and ballot measures, and a package of election-integrity measures the campaign says would make Arizona "the gold standard" for election administration.
