Arizona Sheriff Paul Babeu, who has made something of a name for himself by attacking the Obama administration on immigration, announced Wednesday he’s running for Congress.

The Republican is a frequent guest on Fox News and is often brought on as a critic of the ongoing Fast and Furious scandal. The Pinal County sheriff will run in Arizona’s new 4th Congressional District.

“It’s time for a new Sheriff in Washington,” he wrote in the announcement on his website. “The American people are sounding a giant 911 call on Washington. And I’m responding.”
