Pima County Democratic Party Votes to Withdraw Support for Pima County Sheriff Candidate Kevin Kubitskey
Last night, during an emergency session of the executive committee, the Pima County Democratic Party (PCDP) voted to withdraw support for Pima County Sheriff candidate Kevin Kubitskey, as we no longer believe that he represents the values of the Democratic Party. ...
PCDP Chair Denounces Protests At Officials’ Homes
The Pima County Democratic Party denounces a recent protest, and an announcement of upcoming protests, in front of Tucson Mayor Regina Romero’s house. Protest can be an effective form of free speech, but taking protests to the homes of elected officials–or anyone– can be perceived as threatening. Everyone has the right to feel safe in their own home. I did reach out to my GOP counterpart regarding this issue. He looked into the matter and assured me that the Pima County GOP did not sanction the event last weekend, nor did they plan any such future events. He very clearly stated that he considered this action completely inappropriate.
Protests should be staged at public venues. Bringing protests to a private home escalates it from free speech to a form of intimidation. This cannot be the new normal in Tucson.
Alison Jones, Chair of the Pima County Democratic Party.

Notes From The Chair | May 2020
Democrats believe in science, which makes it hard for us to understand how some people are responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. Why did Trump disband the White House Pandemic Task Force in 2018? Scientists were telling him that a pandemic was a matter of...

Onward to November! Time to take back America! #BidenHarris2020
I have the great honor to announce that I’ve picked @KamalaHarris — a fearless fighter for the little guy, and one of the country’s finest public servants — as my running mate.
That's true Mr. VP, our choice this November is clear: the inspiring American values of @JoeBiden and the Democratic Party or the fear, corruption, and incompetence that you and your boss are offering up. 5 million cases, 163,215 dead Americans. #VoteLikeYourLifeDependsOnIt
Pence says the choice in this election ‘has never been clearer and the stakes never higher.’ @KVOA
Arizonans are suffering as a direct result of their inaction, incompetence, and corruption and this administration has the out-of-touch arrogance - along their enablers at all levels from McSally to Ducey to the GOP state legislature - to ask for another term? #throwthebumsout
Pence's visit today only reminds us that communities across Arizona continue to deal with the lasting effects of the coronavirus pandemic. Pence and Trump’s failed response has left more than 300,000 Arizonans out of work and weakened the state’s economy.
.@JoeBiden would protect the Grand Canyon, @realDonaldTrump wants to mine it for uranium.
It’s time for Congress to pass @RepRaulGrijalva’s Grand Canyon Centennial Protection Act to permanently ban uranium mining around the Grand Canyon. #KeepItGrand
