Teri Ann Hourihan

ARIZONA GOVERNOR, NO LABELS PARTY

I AM THE CANDIDATE THAT NO ONE ELSE IS OR IS WILLING TO BE — FOR THE PEOPLE = YOU. I AM NOT FOR THE SYSTEM THAT FAILS US BUT FOR THE PEOPLE FIRST AND FOREMOST WHO ARE HURTING IN ARIZONA. MY FOCUS IS ALL OF US. JUSTICE BY ME TAKING OFFICE FOR US ALL. 

My Heart is For Arizona

I rejected the No Labels Party endorsement because I stand for Arizona and not for a political party!

Teri Ann Hourihan for AZ Governor. As Governor of Arizona, I will never take for granted the opportunity to serve the people of this great state. I am not a typical politician. I am a real person from the community, working at the community level and fighting for everyday Arizonans. My focus is simple: creating positive change, restoring accountability, and putting the people of Arizona first. To support my campaign, please visit my website before June 22, 2026, and update your party registration to No Labels so you can vote for me in the primary election. After the primary, you are free to return to the party of your choice. Together, we can build a stronger, safer, and more prosperous Arizona for everyone. But i need your help!

I Do Not Accept PAC, AIPAC, Corporate Money or Endorsements Now or EVER!

Politicians who choose to take money from major donors, billionaire-backed corporations, powerful law firms, and special interests create a serious conflict of interest. You cannot convince me otherwise. Why do governors need millions of dollars from billionaires and corporate America? The truth is, they don’t. Yet they continue to take the money, the endorsements, and the influence that comes with it. And when the time comes to make decisions that affect everyday Arizonans, too often the people are placed second behind those powerful interests. As Governor of Arizona, I will not take corporate PAC money, billionaire donations, or special-interest endorsements. My loyalty will be to the people of Arizona—not to those seeking favors, influence, or access. Arizona deserves leadership that cannot be bought. We need a government that puts families, workers, small businesses, and communities first. If you believe it’s time for real change, I ask for your prayers, your support, and your vote. Together, we can build an Arizona that works for all of us

Leading Arizona with Truth and Accountability

Teri Ann Hourihan for AZ Governor . Every day I stay in this race, I become more convinced of what’s at stake. Arizona has so much to lose if the wrong leader earns the Governor’s seat. Our state is at a crossroads. We can continue down the same path of division, waste, and failed leadership, or we can choose a new direction built on truth, accountability, and putting the people of Arizona first. As Governor, I won’t drown out the voices of everyday Arizonans—I will listen, lead, and fight for them. Real change is possible, but it requires leaders with the courage to put people above politics. Arizona deserves better, and I’m ready to lead

FRIENDSHIP AND GRATITUDE

Teri Ann Hourihan for AZ Governor. I am grateful. 🥹 live life like tomorrow doesn’t exist, ensuring your today is worthy of forever. I am so grateful for the short time I had with my dear friend and I give credit to where I am today to him who believed in me and gave me hope in a time of struggle. I regained my voice because his encouragement kept me speaking

Q&A Affordability

Arizona’s cost of living and inflation rates remain above national targets, making it increasingly difficult for families to afford housing, groceries, transportation, and other necessities. As Governor, I will address affordability by tackling its root causes. Arizona’s rapid growth, combined with water shortages, drought conditions, and housing supply constraints, has driven costs higher. By strengthening water security, improving school funding, reforming government agencies, and reducing fraud and waste, we can create long-term affordability for residents.

My administration will work to lower utility costs, reduce inflationary pressures, increase wages, and expand opportunities for Arizonans to live within their means without needing multiple jobs. I will pursue stronger oversight of fuel pricing, expand rebate programs for teachers, first responders, public servants, farmers market vendors and shoppers, and incentivize water-efficient landscaping. I will promote affordable housing through adaptive reuse of vacant buildings, strengthen homelessness services, explore universal childcare options, and evaluate data center tax revenues to support affordability initiatives and public education.

Q&A Healthcare

Healthcare costs continue to place a significant burden on Arizona families, employers, and healthcare providers. As Governor, I will work to ensure that every Arizonan has access to affordable, high-quality healthcare without facing financial hardship.

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.

Statement

Teri chose to run as an Independent/No Labels because she believes the growing political division in our state and nation is preventing meaningful solutions and leaving too many people behind. She believes Arizona needs leadership that brings people together, not further apart, and that the needs of citizens must always come before political agendas.

Guided by honesty, integrity, accountability, and common sense, Teri is committed to making decisions based on what is best for Arizona—not what is best for political parties, special interests, or wealthy donors. While she respects differing political viewpoints, her focus remains on serving all Arizonans regardless of party affiliation.

Teri does not accept, and will not accept (ever), PAC or corporate donations. She believes that special-interest influence has become one of the greatest obstacles to effective government and that elected officials should be accountable to the people they serve—not to donors or political organizations.

As Governor, Teri will work to restore public trust by ensuring that government agencies and public servants prioritize the people first. She believes many of Arizona’s systems are no longer serving citizens as intended and that meaningful reform is necessary to protect families, strengthen communities, and improve quality of life across the state.

Her priorities include addressing the rising cost of living, implementing a universal childcare program, protecting school choice and ensuring tax payer dollars going into the education system is accounted for, securing Arizona’s water future, reducing the homelessness, removing public encampments by providing safe shelters and resources, improving the court systems for families, supporting rural communities, ensuring an effective legal immigration process, and promoting government accountability. 

Above all, Teri believes leadership begins with listening. She is committed to being accessible, approachable, and accountable to the people of Arizona. Teri understands that problems cannot be solved by ignoring the voices of those most affected by them—Arizonans. Teri believes government works best when it works alongside the people. Her administration will prioritize openness, accountability, and public engagement to ensure every Arizonan has a voice in the future of their state.

Simply put, as Governor I will save Families and Save Arizona! My mission is to create a government that is truly for the people and not for the government, to expose the truth, and to create a better Arizona for us all to live in. I want families to feel safe, protected, and have honest leaders. I encourage and use free speech to protect the public against dishonest practices and I stand for what is right, regardless of the consequence.
