A New Voice in Arizona’s First Congressional District: With primary campaigning in Arizona well underway, Democratic Perspective interviews Wenona Benally Baldenegro, Democratic candidate for Arizona’s First Congressional District. She talks with co-hosts Mike Cosentino and Steve Williamson about her background — growing up in Kayenta as a member of the Navajo nation, her degrees from Harvard Law School and the John F. Kennedy School of Government and Public Policy, and her involvement in Arizona politics. She discusses tribal government, the struggle over mining and water rights, the safeguarding of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, and the pressing need for jobs in our rural communities here in Northern Arizona.
