Tony Navarrete is an American politician and a Democratic member of the Arizona House of Representatives elected to represent District 30 in 2016. Navarrete is also a community organizer with Promise Arizona, a pro-immigration advocacy group which helped Latinos register to vote at taco trucks after Marco Gutierrez's "taco trucks on every corner" remark.

Navarette identifies as a member of the LGBT community. Shortly after taking office, he was one of 156 signatories on an open letter to President Donald Trump calling on him to protect LGBT rights.

In 2016, Navarrete and Ray Martinez defeated incumbent Jonathan Larkin in the Democratic primary and went on to defeat Republican Gary Cox the general election.
