David Schweikert

Criticizes the Affordable Care Act and says health care should rely more on competition, transparency, telehealth, and innovation. He also says he supports protections for people with pre-existing conditions and wants lower costs and more consumer choice.

Presents himself as a fiscal conservative focused on reducing government costs, cutting red tape, and promoting pro-growth policies. His public materials also emphasize tax reform, deficit reduction, and market-oriented economic policy.

Supports an all-of-the-above energy strategy that includes traditional energy production along with wind, solar, hydrogen, nuclear, geothermal, battery storage, and carbon capture. He says energy policy should rely on market incentives rather than federal mandates.

Has a record of opposing abortion rights expansion and supporting anti-abortion legislation. Public vote materials and outside scorecards describe him as favoring restrictions on abortion access.

Supports stricter border enforcement and tougher immigration controls. His official materials emphasize border security and opposition to proposals that would financially compensate people who cross the border illegally.

Supports strong U.S. global leadership, continued support for Israel, sanctions on Russia and Iran, opposition to reentering the Iran nuclear deal, and a hard line toward China as a strategic competitor.

Supports school choice and STEM-focused education. His materials say parents should have more options and that education policy should expand science, technology, engineering, and math opportunities.

Supports broader use of artificial intelligence to modernize government and health care, and he has backed legislation aimed at AI-enabled medical tools, remote monitoring, and privacy protections. His public materials frame AI as a way to make government faster and cheaper while improving service delivery.

Supports Arizona water interests, including legislation to address Colorado River shortages and allocate cuts more proportionally among Lower Basin states. His office says the goal is to protect Arizona’s water supply in future shortages.

Publicly available materials and outside scorecards indicate a record that has not aligned with LGBTQ equality advocacy. The Human Rights Campaign gave him a 0 out of 100 on its congressional scorecard.

Supports state control of elections and has emphasized Arizona’s election administration and voting rules in public comments. Public campaign materials and interviews found in search results did not provide a detailed, specific statewide election-policy platform beyond general support for election integrity and state authority.
