Juan Ciscomani Named NRCC Young Gun
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
March 16, 2022
TUCSON – After entering the race for Arizona’s 6th congressional district only 7 short months ago, Republican candidate Juan Ciscomani has been named to the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) Young Guns program. This program recognizes candidates across the country who have built serious and winning campaigns. Prior to today’s announcement, Ciscomani advanced to NRCC “On The Radar” status in October 2021.
“I am honored to be named a Young Gun by the NRCC, and grateful for the confidence and support by Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy and NRCC Chair Representative Tom Emmer,” Ciscomani said. “Our campaign has been working hard, connecting with voters, listening to their concerns and building support to take back this seat and the U.S. House this fall. Today, Washington Democrats are destroying the American Dream. With record-high gas prices, inflation at a 40-year high, surging crime rates and high apprehension rate numbers at our southern border, it’s time to fire Nancy Pelosi as Speaker and retake the House. Laura and I are grateful for the support from all who have joined Team Ciscomani.”
In Ciscomani’s first 151 days as a candidate, he raised over $900,000. In addition, he has received endorsements from Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy, Whip Steve Scalise, Congressional Leadership Fund, Arizona State Representative Teresa Martinez, Mayor of Marana Ed Honea, Mayor of Casa Grande Craig McFarland, Mayor of Sahuarita Tom Murphy, Cochise County border rancher John Ladd and others.
Being named a Young Gun is the highest level of the NRCC Young Guns program. Young Gun candidates have met a series of rigorous goals and surpassed program benchmarks to establish a clear path to victory. Young Gun candidates represent the most competitive congressional seats in the 2022 election cycle.

About Juan:
Juan grew up in Southern Arizona and has dedicated his career to fighting on behalf of his community and giving them a voice. As a first generation American, his love of country and patriotism were born out of his upbringing in a working-class family. Juan’s parents instilled in him conservative values, a strong work ethic, and an optimistic can-do attitude.
While attending public schools in Tucson, Juan held several jobs and earned scholarships to pay for school. He was the first from his family to achieve a higher education, graduating from Pima Community College and the University of Arizona.
Too many politicians talk about the border, but have never even been to the border. Juan knows first-hand the need to secure our border. As Senior Advisor to Governor Ducey for more than 6 years, Juan has worked closely with Border Patrol, border sheriffs, ranchers and residents along the border to bring resources and attention to our border crisis. In Congress, Juan will fight for policies that secure our border because he knows border security is national security.
Juan’s family story is the American story. He strongly believes America is the land of opportunity. During his time at the Tucson Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, he fought for lower taxes and the elimination of unnecessary regulations on behalf of small business owners.
Juan and Laura value faith, life and family as the proud parents of six active kids: Zoe, Juan IV, Kenneth, Lily, Lucas and Gloria, who they are raising in Tucson. Juan’s favorite activities include coaching his kids’ flag football teams and also volunteering in his church.
