2020 AZ Senatorial race: on Jobs


Mark Kelly: Make investments that raise wages and create jobs

Unemployment insurance, food assistance and Medicaid have all been a vital safety net for so many Arizonans during this crisis. We need to ensure that these programs continue to help working Arizonans get back on their feet, especially older workers. And then we need to make investments that are going to raise wages and create good-paying jobs--like in infrastructure, science and technology--and job-training programs to ensure that Arizonans have the skills they need.

Martha McSally: COVID: Helped craft CARES Act to save jobs, small businesses

Q: Your COVID policy?

A: When the coronavirus hit, I helped craft the CARES Act. This bill provided relief to Arizonans who became unemployed. We saved more than 1 million jobs and 86,000 small businesses through the Paycheck Protection Program. The CARES Act has helped our economy & the job market start to recover. One thing we don't need in the middle of this recovery is a tax increase. I voted to cut taxes on Arizona families by $2,000 and will keep fighting for lower taxes and pro-job policies.
