Monica Alponte, a Libertarian, is seeking election to the U.S. House representing Arizona's 1st Congressional District in 2026. Raised in a military family, she made Arizona her home 25 years ago. She is a retired business writer and former political talk show co-host, known as a fearless civic leader involved in local road safety, animal rescue, and HOA reform. Alponte advocates for a non-interventionist foreign policy, prioritizing peace and individual rights, and aims to rein in out-of-control government. She refuses money from AIPAC and foreign lobbies. Her commitment stems from a belief that local issues, like HOAs, reflect broader governmental overreach.
