with Sine Kerr
Sine Kerr, a candidate for Arizona lieutenant governor and former state senator, discusses her background in agriculture and public service in the Phoenix Business Brief podcast. Kerr highlights the critical issues of water management and agriculture's role in Arizona's economy, emphasizing the importance of community engagement in the political process. She is running alongside gubernatorial candidate Andy Biggs in the 2024 election.

“I got into politics because of my love for agriculture and wanting to make sure that we could continue this way of life, secure our livelihood, and advocate for all the things that help keep us in business.”
“Politics is not a spectator sport. It requires participation.”
“We produce the food that goes on your dinner table. And it's one of the founding industries for Arizona.”
“Water has always been a high priority and a critical issue, and understanding and knowing that we farm in the desert, we all live in the desert.”
“We use less water today than we did in 1957, and that's incredible, as we have utilized different technologies to use less water and to continue to do more with less.”
“The power of one person stepping up and saying, here's a change in the law that needs to help, can make a huge difference in the lives of thousands.”
