YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) – Congressman Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) made an appearance in Yuma Saturday at Lute’s Casino for a public event.
Congressman Biggs spoke with supporters and explained his vision for the state of Arizona if elected governor in 2026.
“We want people to be able to get jobs, we want young people to stay here in this state, I am a big believer in human flourishing, and when people are free, and safe, and there’s a good economy, they flourish, they feel safer, and happier,” Biggs shared.
He plans on addressing issues, like safety in the state by making sure law enforcement have the resources they need and creating a sustainable economy.
He also shared his plans for preserving the Colorado River as well as how Yuma will greatly impact the state of Arizona.
Biggs stated he wants to make sure to make this a state where families can thrive.
“We want to reinvigorate the American Dream, we want to make sure that our economy grows, we want to be a gross state again, we went from number four in job growth nationwide, and now, we’re number 47 under this governor,” Biggs explained.
The Primary Election will take place next year.
Biggs is one of two Republicans running for governor as Karrin Taylor Robson announced her candidacy earlier this year.
Both Republican candidates are endorsed by President Donald Trump.
