Congressman Eli Crane Endorses Mark Lamb for Congress in Arizona’s 5th District

Contact: Ed Morabito, Mark Lamb for Congress Spokesman, ed@marklamb.us

Congressman Eli Crane has officially endorsed retired Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb for Congress in Arizona’s 5th Congressional District. The endorsement builds on a longstanding alignment between the two conservative leaders. Their shared mission to defend the Constitution, support law enforcement, and secure the southern border has been evident for years.

Crane publicly announced his support on November 6, 2025, posting on X, “I’m proud to endorse @sherifflamb1 for Congress. Mark understands the importance of border security, and unlike most, he’s a true conservative fighter. Mark did an amazing job as the Sheriff of Pinal County, and he’ll do the same for #AZ05.”

Their partnership began well before Crane entered Congress. During Crane’s first congressional campaign, then Sheriff Lamb endorsed him, stating, “I am excited to endorse Eli Crane for Congress. Eli is the leader we need to stand up for Law Enforcement and secure the Southern Border. We’ve seen an invasion at the border with unprecedented human trafficking and drug trafficking flowing into Arizona that is crippling our communities and destroying American lives. Our current Congressman continues to ignore this crisis and is failing to protect Arizona Families. Let’s replace this open borders advocate with a battle tested Navy SEAL. Please vote Eli Crane for Congress.”

These patriots exchanging endorsements represents far more than a handshake for show. It is a clear signal of unity. This unity is a much needed element among Republican leaders in Arizona and within the men and women who serve in Congress. Former Sheriff Mark Lamb and Navy SEAL Eli Crane are widely viewed as a rising conservative partnership. They are projected to be a force that will confront political gamesmanship, reject nonsense behavior in Washington, and push back against the perception of do nothing politicians. The American public is tired of seeing this dysfunction in the media and is demanding leaders who take real action.

Lamb has earned national recognition throughout nearly two decades in law enforcement, including his service as Pinal County Sheriff from 2017 to 2024. Crane’s endorsement reflects a shared commitment to restoring trust in government, defending Arizona families, and delivering real results for the people they serve.
