Nez Interview – Podcast March 10, 2024

Representing Constituents. Not An Ideology. Steve Williamson and Karen McClelland welcome Jonathon Nez, Democratic candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives. He is running against Republican Eli Crane, the extremist incumbent who doesn’t even live in the congressional district he is supposed to represent.

A resident of Flagstaff, Nez is a longtime public servant who most recently served as President of the Navajo Nation. During his four-year tenure as president, he accomplished many things including leading the Navajo people through the COVID-19 pandemic, securing funds to construct new health care facilities and homes for veterans, investing in public safety, and improving roads and bringing clean water and electricity to thousands of previously unserved residents.

A true moderate, Nez is committed to addressing the issues that are most important to the mostly rural district. These include elder care, childcare, infrastructure, environment, conservation, water, broadband, and much more.
