The GOP lawmaker made her remarks during a July 15 event commemorating “Mormon Political Pioneers” at the Arizona Republican Party headquarters in Phoenix.

Phoenix New Times obtained audio of Allen’s comments late last week, noting:
During a rambling, 25-minute speech peppered with religious and autobiographical references, Allen expressed a worldview that the founding principles of the United States are under attack by feminists, secularists, and immigrants.
Allen’s discussion of assimilation occurred near the end of her speech, following a reference to Dr. James Johnson, a business professor at the University of North Carolina who studies demographics.
