Andy's Positions on Key Issues
Economy
HighCongressman Andy Biggs voted against the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022, citing concerns about increasing the national debt and advocating for fiscal responsibility. He was recognized by the National Taxpayers Union with the 'Taxpayers' Friend Award' for his 2018 voting record supporting lower taxes, limited government, and economic freedom. Biggs has also highlighted positive job creation and low unemployment rates in official statements.
“"This bill will exacerbate our out-of-control spending," said Congressman Andy Biggs. "At a time when the national debt has surpassed $30 trillion, Congress cannot continue this cycle of reckless spending. This bill will dramatically increase the deficit, leaving a massive bill for our children to pay."”
Immigration
HighRepresentative Andy Biggs advocates for stricter border security measures and opposes efforts to defund ICE. He supports legislation like the Stopping Border Surges Act, Deportation Disclosure Act, and Fund and Complete the Border Wall Act to strengthen immigration enforcement and close legal loopholes. Biggs states these measures are essential to secure the border and prevent individuals such as "rapists, child molesters, murderers" from entering the country.
“Andy Biggs, U.S. Representative for Arizona’s 5th District: "I'd say, Tony, think of who they're protecting. I mean, you can go through and see every day a list of who ICE is arresting right there. Even in Minneapolis, we're talking about rapists, child molesters, murderers, just the the a parade of horrors and they they want to protect that." (YouTube, 5 Feb 2026)”
Healthcare

He introduced the Putting Patients First Healthcare Freedom Act, a legislative package aiming to lower premiums, restore competition, and empower families. His framework prioritizes "freedom, affordability, and patient choice" and includes ending taxpayer funding for abortion and gender transition procedures.
““The American people are being strangled by a broken healthcare system, and it is long past time for Republicans to confront it with real reform centered around freedom, affordability, and real choice,” said Congressman Biggs.”

The League of Conservation Voters (LCV) gave him a score of 0% in their National Environmental Scorecard.
“He raved about the caucus getting rid of “about 50% of” the IRA, resulting in a “90% reduction in the subsidies for wind and solar,” he said. “That’s a good thing, too.” - Andy Biggs, Phoenix New Times”
