Issue Position: Assure Cost Effective Energy

Issue Position

Arizona needs power. I believe the free markets are best suited to determine where our power comes from. I support a comprehensive approach of traditional sources like coal, as well as green technologies like solar and bio-mass. I am the only member of our legislature to have produced and sold power on the open markets through power plants I own in Eastern Arizona. Governor Brewer asked me to put this practical experience to work by representing our state in discussions with the U.S. Department of Energy. I am also on the front lines of the battle with the EPA to allow Arizona to control its own implementation of emissions standards.
