State Treasurer Kimberly Yee announced Monday that she is running for governor in 2022, leaping into the Republican primary to succeed Doug Ducey after his second term ends.
Yee was the first prominent Republican to enter the race and sought to play up her conservative credentials, focusing on the border and touting former President Donald Trump in a short video released Monday morning. Another Republican candidate joined the race later Monday.
“I’m running for governor to put Arizona first, to ensure our children have the same opportunities and freedoms my family found here, and that starts with securing our southern border,” Yee said.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) A conservative legal outfit filed a lawsuit Wednesday against President Joe Biden's administration for its prioritization of restaurants and bars owned by women and certain minorities in its COVID-19 relief package, arguing white men are being “pushed to the back of the line" for aid for their eateries.
The lawsuit names U.S. Small Business Association Administrator Isabella Casillas Guzman as the defendant
It was filed by a conservative legal outfit on behalf of Antonio Vitolo, the owner of Jake s Bar and Grill in Harriman, Tennessee
The suit comes after the Biden administration s American Rescue Plan Act established the $28.6 billion Restaurant Revitalization Fund
The SBA said it would only process and fund priority group applications from May 3 to May 24
Those priority groups include businesses majority-owned by women, veterans, or those who are socially and economically disadvantaged
Vitolo immediately applied for aid May 3 when the SBA started accepting applications but doesn t qualify to receive aid yet because he s a white male
