My name is Mary Ann Mendoza and my son, Sgt. Brandon Mendoza of the Mesa, AZ police department was killed by an illegal criminal on May 12, 2014, in a violent head-on collision on his way home from work.

My fight has always been about honoring my son and also about getting our politicians on board with the fight to uphold immigration laws and to put Americans first.

I spoke at numerous Trump rallies during the 2015/2016 campaign, was a speaker at the Republican National Convention in July 2016, was a guest on the Hannity Town Hall in Austin Texas in August 2016.

I have been a guest on Fox News and Fox Business channel talking about illegal immigration and sanctuary issues.

I am running for Arizona State Representative for LD 9 to fight for:

Our Constitutional Rights
Election Integrity
Back the Blue
Securing our Borders
Protecting our Children’s Education
Protecting Small Businesses from Mandates
Medical Freedoms
Right to Life

The only way to meet the challenges facing our communities is to get involved and take action.
Now is the time to disrupt the liberal agenda and restore respect, honor, and constitutional
soundness. Our founding fathers understood the overreach that government may employ when it operates against liberties. We the People hold the power, the understanding, and the rights to make
sure local, state, and federal government govern for the people and in accordance with the
Constitution to preserve the rights we are guaranteed as citizens of a free nation.
