What we’re about

New to the area and looking for other Democrats? Lived here for a while and thought you were the only Democrat? You've found your people!
Arizona went through redistricting in January 2022. The new AZ Legislative District 12 [formerly LD 18] now includes Southeast Phoenix [Ahwatukee], Northwest Chandler, South Tempe, and Lone Butte precinct in the Gila River Indian Community. Located in Maricopa County, LD 12 is mostly in Congressional District 4, with Lone Butte precinct located in CD 2. Our district is also part of Maricopa County Supervisorial District 1.
The AzLD 12 Democrats are part of the Maricopa County Democratic Party and the Arizona Democratic Party. As Democrats who are proud of our values, we work to:

  • guarantee human and civil rights for all through excellent public schools, women’s healthcare autonomy, and workers’ rights;
  • promote and represent justice, equity, diversity, and inclusivity in our community;
  • leave our state and world a better place by addressing the climate crisis and stewardship of Arizona's water resources;
  • move forward with immigration reform, campaign finance reform, and separation of church and state;
  • achieve economic security through equal opportunity, a livable minimum wage, and a strong middle class;
  • honor and serve our military service members and veterans; and
  • protect and expand Social Security and Medicare.

As one of the strongest and most innovative legislative districts in the state, we strive to elect Democrats up and down the ballot. We fulfilled our 2024 strategic election plan by re-electing Mitzi Epstein to the AZ Senate, and Patty Contreras and Stacey Travers to the AZ House. AzLD12 continues as a blue district, with all three of the legislative seats held by Democrats since 2018, and we are going to keep it that way in 2026. #KeepItBlue
