ELECTION ALERT: Tea Party Express Endorses Tiffany Shedd for Congress in Arizona


For Immediate Release: June 23, 2020

SACRAMENTO, CA: Tea Party Express, the nation’s largest Tea Party political action committee, is pleased to announce its endorsement of Tiffany Shedd in Arizona’s First Congressional District.

Tea Party Express Co-Founder and Chief Strategist Sal Russo said, “When it comes to the Tea Party principles of limited government, lower taxes, and economic freedom, Tiffany Shedd is the clear choice in this race. She will join with other conservatives in Congress to get the economy moving again and continue draining the swamp.

“A small business owner, family farmer, and homeschool mom, Tiffany Shedd understands the daily struggles facing working families and the many ways the government only worsens them through overregulation and confiscatory taxes. While Arizona families are struggling to pay the bills and maintain their way of life, the Washington establishment is enriching itself at the expense of taxpayers and small business owners.

Tiffany will bring leadership and accountability to Congress and fight for commonsense solutions that put Arizonans back to work, eliminate wasteful government spending, and secure our southern border. “Instead of addressing these critical issues, liberal Tom O’Halleran has spent the past four years doing the bidding of Nancy Pelosi, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and the rest of the far left. He couldn’t bring himself to cut the taxes of millions of hardworking Americans or support commonsense border security measures. But he had no problem voting for his party’s failed impeachment scam or $3 trillion of socialist pet projects that will saddle generations to come with debt. Clearly, he is not the Blue Dog Democrat he claims to be.

Voters in the First District deserve honest, principled representation in Congress, and conservative leader Tiffany Shedd will not disappoint them,” Russo concluded.

The following are statements from local grassroots leaders:

Tiffany Shedd is a fierce supporter of the Constitution and will be an excellent Congresswoman. Her commitment to the people of her district is unmatched.” – Jennifer Wellsman, Conservative Activist

“Tiffany is running for Congress to fight for conservative solutions to the issues Arizonans face every day because liberal politicians in Washington have repeatedly ignored them. Tiffany will work with President Trump to secure our southern border. With Tiffany’s extensive background and knowledge of agriculture, water and land issues, she will be a great addition to our Arizona Republican Caucus in Washington.” – Andrea and Dwight Kadar, AZ01 Delegates to the 2016 Republican National Convention

Tiffany Shedd is the patriot and staunch Second Amendment supporter we need in D.C. representing Arizona and fighting for America. She understands that knives are tools carried daily by millions of Americans and occasionally used, and protected, as a Second Amendment “arm.” It’s time for AZ CD1 to shed its deep blue anti-2A, anti-Trump incumbent and elect Tiffany Shedd.” – Sue Ritter, Development Director, Knife Rights, Inc. and Doug Ritter, Chairman, Knife Rights, Inc.

Tiffany Shedd has committed her life to serving the community. When she sees problems, her first instinct is to fix them. Tom O’Halleran and liberals in Congress have made a mess in the swamp. We need Tiffany in Congress to clean up the mess.” – Peg Brady, Political Activist
