In many respects, Arizona is a model for the rest of the country on best practices for water management.

As governor, it is my highest priority to protect Arizona citizens.

We want to make sure Arizona residents have the opportunity to learn about the decisions we are making and have a chance to participate in the process.

In celebration of this Earth Day, I encourage all Members of the House to support legislation aimed at investing in the improvement of water quality in our Nation's lakes, rivers, streams and estuaries.

I consider it top priority to improve water quality and increase water quantity in my community.

If there's one thing Arizona is best in the nation at, it's water.

We must carefully examine regulations that could threaten the state of Arizona's water and power supply.

And now, since I've been governor since last January, I have written numerous letters to the administration in regards to securing our borders with absolutely no response. So we have been facing this crisis, and it's devastating the people of Arizona. And I feel as governor I have a responsibility to protect the citizens.

I also want to thank Arizona citizens for their efforts at conserving energy last summer.
