ABOUT WARREN PETERSEN
I’m Warren Petersen — a constitutional conservative, Arizona Senate President, business owner, and candidate for Arizona Attorney General.I\'m a third generation Gilbert resident who has built my life on service. I’ve spent the last decade fighting for the freedoms and good policy that make Arizona exceptional.I’ve led the most conservative state legislature in Arizona history — passing the largest tax cut in state history, banning ballot harvesting, cutting red tape, and defending the Second Amendment. As a licensed real estate broker, lawyer and small business owner, I know firsthand how government overreach can stifle growth and burden working families. That’s why I’ve made it my mission to champion limited government, economic freedom, and individual liberty.When Kris Mayes refused to defend Arizona’s laws, I stepped in — and won in court. Now, I’m running for Attorney General to bring accountability back to the office, enforce the law without political bias, and protect Arizona from federal overreach, crime, and radical agendas.I stand for:Law and order, not lawfareBorder securityElection IntegrityParental rights, religious liberty, and free speechCommon-sense leadership rooted in truth and resultsIf you\'re a business leader, parent, patriot, or simply tired of politics-as-usual — we’re probably on the same side.
