Biography
Anna Tovar is a proud Arizona native and has dedicated her life to giving back to her community. Anna was a public schoolteacher for five years, served on the Tolleson City Council for over seven years, and was Vice Mayor for two years until she was elected to the Arizona House of Representatives. Anna and her husband have been married for over 20 years and have two wonderful sons.
Statement
As a legislator, Anna earned a reputation as a leader who fought for her constituents. Anna is a two-time cancer survivor and recipient of a lifesaving organ transplant. Because of her experience, Anna made it her mission as a state legislator to restore funding for nearly 100 patients on the transplant list – and she succeeded. In 2013, she won election to the State Senate and in 2016, Anna was the first woman elected to be Tolleson’s Mayor, where she continues delivering results for her hometown. Regardless of her role, the one question Anna always asks herself before making any decision is: will it be good for constituents and the future of our community? It’s why she is now running for the Arizona Corporation Commission. She believes that far too often, many of the Corporation Commissioners have forgotten about who they were elected to serve: the people of Arizona. Anna wants to restore transparency and integrity to the Corporation Commission, and she will fight to protect consumers and promote renewable energy so we have a strong and sustainable future. She is asking for your vote so she can be a voice for all Arizonans.

Biography
I was raised in a military family and graduated from ASU and St. Mary’s University law school. After fighting corruption, I became the Presiding Judge of the Chandler Court. I next served in the House of Representatives where I wrote numerous laws protecting our environment, including a law preventing Arizona from becoming the nation’s dumping ground for hazardous waste and laws protecting our rivers, mountains, and native plants. I was a Corporation Commissioner (9 years) and Chair (2 years).
Statement
I want to return to the Commission so I can join Commissioner Sandra Kennedy, the Chair of my campaign, in fighting the corruption that has resulted in unjustified rate increases and the crushing of rooftop solar. Whether you are a Republican, Democrat, or Independent, you should be concerned by the coziness between the current Commissioners and the utilities they regulate. When I return to the Commission, this undue influence by government created monopolies will end. APS/Pinnacle West spent millions against me in 2016. Why? Because as a Commissioner (1999-2009), I opposed their unjustified rate increases and their attempts to stop rooftop solar. And I will do so again. When I was a Commissioner in 2006, I coauthored the current renewable energy requirement: REST Rules. As a result, Arizona was a leader in solar energy. That requirement needs to be greatly increased. Arizona should be the Solar Capital of the World! I want to bring back integrity, fairness, and transparency to the Commission so it again works for regular people rather than powerful utilities and their political insiders and lobbyists. I ask for your vote so I can protect consumers from unjustified rate increases, stop corruption, and increase solar energy.

Statement
The mission of the Arizona Corporation Commission is, “to power Arizona’s future.” The ACC is responsible for growing Arizona’s economy, ensuring safe, reliable, and affordable utility services, enforcing an ethical securities marketplace, and modernizing a responsive government agency. ACC Commissioners establish policy, sit in judgment, and advocate on behalf of Arizona residents. Arizona has been my home since 1957. I’ve raised two sons, earned a B.A. and M.Ed from Arizona State University in Education, and served on the Cave Creek Town Council. My environmental commitments include board membership on The Black Mountain Conservancy, advocating for the Spur Cross Ranch Conservation Area, as well as, the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, and volunteering with the U.S. Forest Service. During my 40+ years, as an educator, I worked with the local teacher’s union on behalf of educational staff and with families from a variety of cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. My responsibility, as an ACC Commissioner, is to represent the residents of Arizona. My role is to focus on the ACC’s Constitutional oversight responsibilities; this includes engaging in decisions for renewable energy solutions to ensure a healthy environment. Together, we must elect individuals who are committed to building a sustainable future for Arizona.
