Biggs lays out plans if elected Arizona governor, deflects on his record

GOP candidate held press conference to lay out his priorities

PHOENIX — Gubernatorial hopeful Andy Biggs made a series of promises Tuesday of what he intends to do if elected as governor.

In a press conference on the lawn of the state Senate, where he previously served as president, Biggs vowed to totally eliminate tax incentives for data centers, allow Arizona restaurants to serve raw milk, limit the number of short-term rentals that can be owned by investors, support more nuclear power in Arizona, and limit the use of food stamps to purchase “junk food” and soda.

He also wants to increase the scope of the already universal Empowerment Scholarship Account program, finding a way to increase the grants to provide more accessibility to students in inner-city and rural areas who do not now have easy access to private and parochial schools.
