Text VICTORY to 21818 to help DEFEND our conservative majority!

Socialist Amish Shah today skipped an AZ-01 candidate forum for seniors, showing he is afraid to face any questions about his socialist healthcare plan.

Shah also recently refused to attend the Arizona PBS debate without explanation.

Common sense leader Jay Feely showed up. Feely spoke about lowering costs for seniors, protecting Social Security and Medicare, cracking down on rampant fraud and ending taxpayer-funded handouts for illegal immigrants.

“For seniors wanting answers about his socialist healthcare record, socialist Amish Shah was nowhere to be found. Socialist Shah would rather hide than defend the Bernie Sanders-AOC policies he praised.” – NRCC Spokesperson Ben Petersen

Background:
Amish Shah’s extreme plans would hurt Arizonans:

• Shah praised Alexandria Ocasio Cortez’s socialist healthcare plan.
• Shah campaigned for socialist Bernie Sanders for President at a Democrat Socialists of America (DSA) meeting, praising Sanders for ‘improving’ the Democrat Party’s policies.
• Shah’s socialist government takeover of healthcare would explode costs, require dramatic tax hikes and risk Medicare for seniors currently relying on it.
• Shah supported free taxpayer healthcare for criminal illegal immigrants.
• Shah even backed transgender sex change surgeries for children.
