PAMELA CARTER
I am a compassionate and passionate leader who cares about the people of Arizona and their values and concerns. I am a fourth generation Native Arizonan who was raised by a single Mom in District 4.
I was a business owner in Scottsdale of the largest sports medicine and weight training facility in the nation at one time, training NFL athletes and ASU football players among other celebrities and public officials. I became a producer and host of “Get in Shape with Pamela Carter” which aired for 18 years on National Faith Networks. Board of Directors for Help 4 Kidz, which received several Presidential awards for their work.
My Mission:
Secure our border, and secure our elections
Protect our children and their safety in our schools
School Choice
Promote small business and our Arizona economy
Keep taxes low for working families for gas, groceries, and housing
Keep our Constitutional rights
Back our law enforcement officers to keep us safe
Statement:
I love Arizona and was raised in District 4. I am concerned about the direction of our state. We have so many things working well, yet Katie Hobbs and the Democrats want to undo our progress. I want to protect school choice and parental rights. I want a secure border and to end human/child/sex trafficking. I want to fight inflation and high interest rates. And I want to support our police. As a Christian and former business owner, I want to make sure our government is working to improve our lives, protect our rights, and ensure our long-term economic future through good economic, infrastructure, and water policies. I’m pro-life, pro-family, and would appreciate your prayers and votes.
