Re-Elect
State Representative

Jackie Thrasher

District 10

       Jackie Thrasher was elected to Arizona’s House of Representatives in 2006 and after a successful first term, she is prepared to work even harder on behalf of the people in her district and around the state.

       As a freshman lawmaker, Jackie continued to teach school part-time as she fulfilled her duties as a state representative.

       At the Capitol, instead of playing political games, Jackie focused on issues that matter most. She voted for a tough employer-sanctions law to crack down on businesses engaged in illegal hiring practices. She fought for safer schools, smaller classroom sizes and better teacher pay. She supported House Bill 2807, allowing tougher immigration enforcement at the local level. She voted for legislation requiring tougher penalties for graffiti and gang crimes. She co-sponsored bills to help prevent identity theft and consumer fraud. And she voted for a budget that would allow Arizona to manage through this economic downturn without raising taxes. She is proud to have been awarded the 2007 Legislative Partner Award from the Arizona Business and Education Coalition.

          Vote to keep Jackie Thrasher so she can continue working for Arizona to improve public education, develop a diverse economic base and create the infrastructure necessary for sustainable growth. Jackie Thrasher uses common-sense, ethical leadership to move Arizona forward, and that is why she is asking for your vote to re-elect her to the Arizona House of Representatives.
