Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

Eli Crane is a combat veteran, small-business owner, husband, father, and native Arizonan. The week after 9/11, Eli joined the Navy. He went on five wartime deployments, three to Iraq with SEAL Team 3, and served our country for 13 years. Today, Eli and his wife Jen own a small business in Tucson. Together they started Bottle Breacher, a successful company featured on Shark Tank, where they landed a deal with Mark Cuban and Kevin O’Leary. Bottle Breacher makes its products in the USA while employing and giving back to veterans nationwide. But Eli’s most important mission to date has been raising his two daughters, Makenzie and Kennedy. He is proud to be raising his family in Arizona and is ready to fight for their future. As someone who has put his life on the line to protect and defend this country and our Constitution, Eli understands that the greatest threat to our freedoms is no longer external – it’s right here at home. Eli is an America First candidate who is pro-life, pro-second amendment, and has the courage to take a stand against cancel culture and the radical left.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Border Security
• Election Integrity
• Pro-Life and Pro-Second Amendment

Campaign website

Crane's campaign website stated the following:

“

ELECTION INTEGRITY Eli knows that without fair elections, our Republic cannot be saved. Eli will fearlessly fight for clean elections and will push back aggressively against voter fraud. Arizona and America must reinstate Election Day voting, bolster polling sites, end unregulated mail-out balloting and enact stronger voter ID laws and stiffer penalties for anyone caught harvesting ballots or found guilty of voter fraud. BORDER SECURITY Eli is the only candidate in this race endorsed by the National Border Patrol Council. As a Navy SEAL in Iraq, Eli stopped terrorists from wreaking havoc. As your Congressman, he will work tirelessly to stop human traffickers, cartel drug dealers and terrorists from entering our southern border. There is an invasion on our southern border. Eli believes it’s time we gained operational control of our borders and empower border patrol agents. NO VACCINE MANDATES, NO LOCKDOWNS, NO TYRANNY Eli will never support Vaccine Mandates or Mask Mandates. Period. Eli will never stand silent while businesses and schools are shuttered. Eli believes it is every citizen’s personal freedom to decide if they want to get vaccinated. This is fundamental to preserving liberty in the face of tyranny. Eli will fight to ban federal funding for gain-of-function research. DEFEATING CANCEL CULTURE Eli will fight to ban Critical Race Theory in Arizona’s schools. Our kids should be educated, not indoctrinated. Eli will fight back against Big Tech’s rampant censorship of free speech. Eli is proudly and unflinchingly pro-life and pro-Second Amendment and will never apologize for it. BRINGING A BUSINESS BACKGROUND TO CONGRESS As a small business owner, Eli cannot just print money. As inflation rates and the national debt skyrocket, Congress continues to spend money we don’t have. This is unacceptable. Eli will fight for lower taxes, less regulation, and pro-growth policies. The more money that Arizonans get to keep in their pockets and the least government involvement, the better.
