FactVote uses the Census Bureau's HIC-4_ACS historical table. Rates and 90% confidence margins of error are the published ACS 1-year estimates for the civilian noninstitutionalized population. ACS annual estimates, all ages. Standard ACS 2020 one-year data were not released; the chart leaves a gap. Survey ranks describe point estimates and do not establish significant differences. Annual observations use December 31; monthly observations use the first of the month. Lines connect consecutive readings and do not supply values between them. Missing observations break the lines.

How major events are selected

The timeline combines the corresponding national fact’s reviewed event catalog, labeled National context, with individually reviewed state milestones. State events use primary sources and distinguish signing, effective and filing dates. Each milestone keeps its source-check date, geographical limits and evidence limits. This curated selection is not a complete history.

Date ranges affect events and actions. Action type, status and official-name search affect government records only. Events remain separate from action counts. An event after the latest observation extends context without creating a new reading.

People under 65 without health insurance

12.5%2024 ACS annual estimate

Share of Arizona’s civilian noninstitutionalized residents under age 65 who lacked comprehensive health-insurance coverage at the time of the ACS survey.

This source snapshot keeps its own definition and period. A rank shown elsewhere applies only to that comparison’s measure and period.

Method and limitations

U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts, sourced from the 2024 American Community Survey 1-year estimate.

This is a survey estimate for people under 65 and does not describe coverage type or continuity of coverage.
Insurance status alone does not measure affordability, access, quality, or health outcomes.

How Arizona action records are selected

Records come from published fact relationships or reviewed topic records with official supporting evidence and verified Arizona officeholder attribution. Historical executive officials require evidence tied to the action date and are excluded from incumbent proposals. Inclusion follows an explicit topic review, a related state fact, or the action’s title and supporting evidence. Explicit topic reviews take priority; repeated actions use the most recent explicit review for this topic. Duplicate actions attached to several facts appear once. This topic match is not a new finding that an action caused a result, and the reviewed collection is selective. Collection reviewed Sep 4, 2026.

This also means addressing the medicaid funding throughout the state and treatment centers. I will stop the fraud immediately. There is absolutely no reason why the fraud continues out the door of medicaid other than we have a system that continues to intentionally fail. We have to stop this, prosecute those who committed fraud, and let free those who are innocent caught in the net. Providers and patients are suffering. Our most vulnerable in Arizona, suffering. Homelessness is a continued crisis and with treatment facilities and providers going out of business daily we will continue to see a huge increase in the unsheltered. People suffering with drug and alcohol addiction are forgotten and our government failing them miserably. I will protect the most vulnerable and treat them with dignity while also protecting the people who are not safe in neighborhoods where drug addiction and homelessness is rampant. Protecting the unsheltered is protecting the community on a whole.

Source topic or question: Health care affordability and access

Candidate campaign source

As both a healthcare provider and business owner, I understand the challenges families face when insurance premiums, deductibles, and out-of-pocket costs continue to rise faster than wages. I also understand the pressures placed on employers who want to provide quality healthcare benefits for their employees but struggle with escalating costs. My administration will pursue innovative solutions that increase affordability and expand access to care. This includes developing employer rebate and incentive programs that help businesses provide healthcare coverage to their workforce, increasing transparency in healthcare pricing, and strengthening oversight to ensure insurance companies are not engaging in unfair pricing practices that drive up costs for consumers. I will also work to create additional healthcare options for Arizonans by encouraging competition, supporting independent healthcare providers, expanding access to preventive and mental health services, and reducing unnecessary administrative barriers that increase costs without improving patient care. Healthcare should be affordable, accessible, and focused on patients—not bureaucracy. Arizona can lead the nation in creating a healthcare system that supports families, employers, providers, and taxpayers while delivering better outcomes for everyone. As Governor, I will fight for practical, fiscally responsible solutions that lower costs, expand choices, and make healthcare more affordable for every Arizona family

Source topic or question: Protecting Families

Candidate campaign source

As a candidate for Governor of Arizona, I respect the will of the voters and will not seek to overturn the abortion laws that Arizonans have approved at the ballot box. I believe major issues such as abortion should be decided by the people, not unilaterally reversed by elected officials. While I may support changes to current policy, those changes should come through the democratic process and, when appropriate, another vote of the people. My focus will be on ensuring that women, men, and families have access to the resources, support services, healthcare, counseling, and economic assistance they need when facing difficult decisions about pregnancy and family planning. Arizona should prioritize supporting families, respecting voter decisions, and allowing the people to have the final say on major policy issues.

Source topic or question: Agency due process and accountability

Candidate campaign source

That experience changed me. I learned firsthand what it feels like for a business owner, healthcare provider, employees, patients, and families to become caught in a government process that can have life-changing consequences. I also came to understand that many other Arizona providers and businesses have faced or continue to face their own battles with state systems. My experience is one reason I am committed to fighting for meaningful reform, stronger due-process protections, greater accountability, and state agencies that protect taxpayers from fraud while also treating legitimate providers and businesses fairly.

Source topic or question: Family Court Reform, Mental Health & Early Intervention Must Be Arizona’s Priority

Candidate campaign source

The heartbreaking tragedy highlighted in this story is a devastating reminder that too many warning signs are missed before families reach a breaking point. While every case is different, it underscores the urgent need for stronger family court reform, earlier intervention for at-risk families, expanded access to mental health services, and a healthcare system that responds before a crisis becomes irreversible. As Governor, these issues will be among my highest priorities. I will work to strengthen family court accountability, improve coordination between healthcare providers and the courts, expand access to mental health treatment, and ensure families receive timely support before tragedy strikes. Arizona must build a system that protects children, supports struggling families, and focuses on prevention—not just responding after lives have been lost.

How statements are selected

This section matches specific health coverage, healthcare costs, access to care and public health terms in retained, attributed source text from published Arizona candidate profiles. A profile heading or biography alone does not qualify. The Florida geography is fixed; saved state preferences cannot change these results. A mention can concern a community or group rather than Florida’s statewide measure.

Matching is automatic and does not establish a candidate’s stance, the accuracy of a claim, or an effect on the measured result. Results are grouped by recorded race, then by candidate name. Within each candidate, the matching issue mentions appear first. Only candidates with matching retained statements are shown; this is not a complete race roster. Repeated identical text for the same candidate is shown once. Coverage follows the existing state profiles and is not a complete record of all candidates or everything they have said. Review dates are not statement dates.

What sponsorship and proposal counts tell us

Only current Arizona officeholders retained in the reviewed collection qualify. Bills require a recorded primary sponsorship; cosponsors and signing officials are excluded from sponsorship counts. An official introducer recorded as acting by request is labeled “Introduced by request”; that procedural role does not establish personal policy endorsement. Governor and agency records qualify when recorded as proposed. A separately verified governor transmittal can also establish an original proposal whose latest status reflects its later outcome. Signing an enacted law alone does not establish a proposal. A record appearing under several facts is counted once per officeholder. A bill with multiple primary sponsors appears under each recorded sponsor.

Enacted bills, adopted resolutions and unsuccessful measures remain visible as proposal history. Passing one chamber is not enactment. These counts do not measure effectiveness or prove that an action changed a Arizona statistic. Collection reviewed Sep 4, 2026.

Sources & methods

Every section retains its primary sources, units, reporting periods and comparison limits. Maps, graphs and tables use the same observation and cohort. All 50 states are listed; D.C. and territories are excluded. Missing and suppressed values remain unavailable and never become zero.

#1 is the highest measured value. Equal source values share a rank and leave gaps (1, 2, 2, 4). Ranks use source precision and are descriptive, not a score of the state. Survey uncertainty and reporting coverage can limit comparisons. Published U.S. benchmarks are used where available; a state average is not substituted.

Arizona snapshots and fiscal sources keep their own dates and accounting scope. National events and federal distribution explainers describe national context. Actions and statements are filtered to Arizona, retain their reviewed evidence, and do not establish that a policy caused a measured change.
