Mark Lamb in 2024 AZ Senate race


On Government Reform: Helped found Protect America Now against "liberal takeover"

Lamb also helped found Protect America Now, a coalition of almost 70 sheriffs from different parts of the country who say they are working together to protect America against "an overreaching government." In published ads, the coalition described its mission as "fighting back against a liberal takeover."

On Gun Control: The Second Amendment is a God-given right

The Second Amendment is a God-given right. The right that protects all other rights. I have always been a fearless defender of the Second Amendment in Arizona and will never waver in my defense of the Constitution. With Joe Biden and the Democrats determined to strip our constitutional right to keep and bear arms, this fight is more important than ever and one that I will continue in the U.S. Senate.

On Health Care: Calls vaccine mandates garbage, spoke at anti-vax rally

He has called vaccine mandates "garbage" and spoke at a recent anti-vaccine rally in Phoenix, where he told supporters, "We're going to find out what kind of patriots you are. We're going to find out who is willing to die for freedom."

When the coronavirus pandemic hit, he publicly resisted Arizona's mask mandates and stay-at-home orders -- before catching Covid himself last year, which he discovered when he was denied entry to the White House for a meeting with Trump.

On Homeland Security: Supporting our military means supporting military families

American Veterans represent the very best of our nation. We will never be able to fully repay the debt owed to these brave men and women. Properly supporting our military means supporting military families. I will be a voracious advocate for veterans and their families. I will always stand up and support America's warriors after their service. This requires providing resources veterans need to successfully transition back to civilian life with high-quality jobs, education, and medical care.

On Immigration: We need to return to Trump-era policies, finish the Wall

America must regain operational control of the Southern Border and enforce our immigration laws. We need to return to Trump-era policies, finish the Wall, and reinstate "Remain in Mexico." Allowing unrestricted illegal immigration is unfair to legal immigrants who played by the rules and waited in line. America needs a return to sanity with a merit-based immigration system that upholds the rule of law.

On Principles & Values: Living abroad gave him a deep appreciation for America

A few years later Mark was called to serve a church mission in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He enjoyed their food, culture, and beautiful country, but this is also where he learned the value of freedom and a strong economy. The experience of living abroad has given him a deep appreciation for America and the freedoms we enjoy.

On Abortion: Ensure that every life is protected from conception onward

Rooted in my abiding faith, I have always fought for and defended the sanctity of life. I believe that being a voice for the voiceless is a pillar of compassion and conservatism. Life is precious and deserves a voice, especially for the most vulnerable among us. I pledge to be that voice, to ensure that every life is valued and protected from conception onward. This commitment is not just a policy stance; it is a moral imperative that defines true compassion and conservatism.

On Budget & Economy: Federal government continues to spend money we don't have

Under the disastrous leadership of Biden, Democrats have driven our once booming economy off the cliff. American families are suffering as a result. Inflation is out of control and the federal government continues to spend money that we don't have. I will fight to restore fiscal responsibility and fiscal sanity in Washington. To fully unleash the American economy, we must reclaim our Energy Independence that Biden destroyed.

On Crime: Leftist policies are emboldening criminals; Americans suffer

As a member of law enforcement myself, I know firsthand the need to support our brave men and women who stand on the frontlines defending our communities. In the U.S. Senate, I will continue this fight for Law and Order. Whether it's calls to defund the police, eliminate cash bail, or woke D.A.s refusing to lock up violent felons, leftist policies are emboldening criminals and leaving law-abiding Americans to suffer. The woke crusade against our police must end.

On Drugs: We must declare the drug cartels as terrorist organizations

Fentanyl is the leading cause of death for American adults and is flowing right across the Southern Border, smuggled in by the cartels. Simply put, fentanyl is poisoning an entire generation of Americans, our children in particular, who are often targeted for recruitment by the criminal cartels. Decisive action is needed to eliminate the cartels and save lives. We must declare the cartels as terrorist organizations and destroy them just like we did to ISIS.

On Education: Woke ideologies run rampant and indoctrinate our youth

A quality education is the gateway to the American Dream. America's next generation deserves the highest possible standard of education that will serve as the catalyst to maximizing their potential. I will always put students, parents, and families first and never stand idly by while parents are silenced while woke ideologies run rampant and indoctrinate our youth.

On Foreign Policy: We must forcefully stand up to the Chinese Communist Party

The United States must forcefully stand up to the Chinese Communist Party as they seek to supplant us as the top global superpower. Chinese aggression has gone unchecked by Biden and the weak-kneed Democrats. China is a totalitarian state that covered up the virus' origins. China manufactures the same fentanyl that is smuggled over the Southern Border.

On Free Trade: United States must decouple our economy from China

The Chinese Communist Party terrorizes their own people, controls every aspect of their lives, stifles any dissent, and even holds the Uyghurs in concentration camps. Our political establishment as well as Western media are silent, refusing to hold China accountable for any of these atrocities. This is in large part tied to our economic dependence on China. If we fail to decouple our economy from theirs, we will never meaningfully confront the singular force of evil that is the CCP.

On Government Reform: Protect our elections with staunch Voter ID laws

Our Republic is dependent on fair elections. It must be easy to vote but impossible to cheat. Americans deserve transparency into their elections. The current legal review into Arizona's elections is appropriate. As a U.S. Senator, I will fight for commonsense policies that protect our elections such as staunch Voter ID laws.
