DescriptionTucson City Councilman Steve Kozachik is changing his party registration from Republican to Democratic.

Kozachik announced the decision in a letter to his constituents Friday.

In it, he said the Republican party is moving too far to the right, influenced by what he calls a small but vocal faction.

“I do not believe that the Republican Party, as it is currently represented in their leadership, reflects this community," Kozachik said in an interview. "Whether that be from the standpoint of immigration or women’s rights issues, they have been totally disengaged from our conversations at the council table."
