Northeast Valley leader from CD1 is the 43rd current or former State Legislator to endorse the former Arizona Senate President
GILBERT, AZ—Arizona State Representative Cody Reim endorsed Congressman Andy Biggs for Governor, adding another endorsement from an elected official in Arizona’s 1st Congressional District. Reim, who was recently appointed to the position after being nominated by grassroots Republicans in Legislative District 3, is the 43rd current or former State Legislator to support the former Arizona Senate President.
“I’m honored to represent one of the most conservative districts in the state and I consistently hear a common theme from my constituents: we need Andy Biggs as our next Governor,” said Representative Reim. “Andy has been a stalwart for the conservative values we cherish in the Northeast Valley and will fight to protect our liberties and rights. He’ll bring us back to responsibly managed budgets and ensure that the next generation of Arizonans will be able to thrive and prosper in safe and secure neighborhoods.”
Reim joins Senator John Kavanagh, State Representative Alex Kolodin, former State Representative Joseph Chaplik, Scottsdale Vice Mayor Adam Kwasman, and former Fountain Hills Mayor Linda Kavanagh as conservative leaders from Arizona’s 1st Congressional District to endorse the Biggs for Arizona campaign.
“Representative Reim has already shown himself to be a strong voice for his constituents, stepping up to serve when he felt like the State Capitol needed a fresh perspective,” said Congressman Biggs. “I’m looking forward to working with him next session and making Arizona a freer, safer, and more prosperous state for everyone in LD3 and across our great state.”
