As an Arizona native, I am committed to the values that built our state: personal responsibility, limited government, and respect for the taxpayers who make it all possible. I am running for State Treasurer to protect your tax dollars and grow them responsibly. This is not a role for those who take big bets or unnecessary risks-it requires discipline, sound judgment, and a clear understanding that every dollar managed by the state belongs to the people of Arizona, not the government. As your Treasurer, I will be a vigilant steward of public funds. I will insist on transparency, eliminate waste, and uphold the fiscal discipline that keeps Arizona strong. Responsible financial management is essential to keeping taxes low and protecting the freedom of Arizona families. That same commitment extends to education. I will stand up for parents and defend education freedom, ensuring families have the flexibility and resources to choose what’s best for their children through Empowerment Scholarships and 529 accounts. I am running to serve with integrity and accountability, and I am honored to be endorsed by Kimberly Yee and three former State Treasurers. Learn more at katherinehaleyforaz.com

Nick Mansour, a third-generation Arizonan, is running for Arizona state treasurer to restore fiscal accountability and strengthen education focus. Prior to his candidacy, Nick served as Chairman and CEO of the Arizona College of Nursing, growing it from one campus into a national leader with 20+ campuses across 14 states. Raised by a nurse and a doctor, he learned the value of hard work, service, and education. He attended Salpointe Catholic High School and later earned degrees in Industrial Engineering and an MBA. Nick and his wife, Annemarie, live in Phoenix with four adult children.
For Nick Mansour, the State Treasurer’s office is not a political stepping stone for higher office. It is the place to make Arizona the best place to live, work, and raise a family. That work starts with restoring fiscal accountability and transparency to the Treasurer’s Office, along with investing in education so Arizonans are ready for today’s challenges and tomorrow’s opportunities. Nick’s career has been dedicated to leading companies that help others better themselves, whether through earning a nursing degree, working in emergency services, or pursuing other opportunities. He defines success by how much he helps others succeed. Nick knows that Arizona’s money is OUR money. He is running for State Treasurer to watch over taxpayer dollars, eliminate waste, invest responsibly, and return money to hardworking Arizonans where it belongs. He will ensure the state’s finances are run like those of the successful businesses he has led, so cities, towns, school districts, and counties have the resources they need. He understands the Treasurer’s main job is investing and managing tax dollars wisely. Recent waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer dollars are unacceptable to Nick. In his view, even one dollar of waste is too much.
