The Arizona Catholic Conference is the public policy arm of the Diocese of Phoenix, the Diocese of Tucson and the Diocese of Gallup. We have surveyed the candidates for this ACC Voter's Guide to provide an important educational tool containing unbiased information on the upcoming elections.Pursuant to Internal Revenue Service requirements for churches and nonprofit organizations, this document does not endorse candidates or indicate our support or opposition to the questions. The ACC Voter's Guide, however, is an excellent source of information on the candidates’ positions on current issues. Included on the ACC Voter's Guide are races covering the U.S. Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, Arizona Governor, Secretary of State, Attorney General, Treasurer, Superintendent of Public Instruction, State Mine Inspector, Corporation Commission, State Senate and State House. It is important to remember that members of the State Senate and State House are elected by legislative district. Each legislative district includes one State Senator and two State Representatives. To find the legislative district you live in, please go to the home page on our website www.azcatholicconference.org. While the 2010 ACC Voter's Guide will reach hundreds of thousands of people, you are encouraged to reproduce the material and distribute in your churches. Please take time to review this document and remember to visit our website to sign up for legislative alerts and to keep up on the latest information. |
