Congress needs to reject Credit Card Competition Act
Congress needs to oppose the Credit Card Competition Act. The bill is a cash grab by greedy corporations, and it’s going to hurt our tourism industry without benefiting everyday Arizonans.
14 years after Citizens United, Arizona leads the way, but our democracy demands more
I support constitutional reform through the For Our Freedom Amendment. The Amendment will allow states and Congress to set reasonable limits on campaign spending, restore checks and balances, and finally end the pay-to-play political system we are living through. Simply stated: It will put ‘we the people’ first.
New regulations threaten Arizona’s renewable energy industry
This regulation, despite its good intentions, will derail the utility companies’ current progress, pass costs on to consumers and likely result in a slower switch to renewable sources. With the three largest utility companies in the state already demonstrating progress in decarbonizing, it doesn’t make sense for the government to tell them how they should do so.
Phoenix must reject feds’ public safety power grab
The city of Phoenix is obligated to provide safe, effective, fiscally responsible, and constitutionally accountable law enforcement services to its citizens. Subordinating public safety to the demands of federal bureaucracies won’t accomplish that.
Legislature should evaluate influence of PBMs
As healthcare professionals, our focus should be on dismantling unnecessary barriers between patients and their prescribed treatments. I implore the Arizona Legislature to critically evaluate the influence of PBMs, with the ultimate goal of prioritizing the well-being of patients over the profit-driven motives of intermediaries.
Psilocybin’s pivotal role to reshape mental health
We are poised to take decisive action — permitting the use of psilocybin under the careful guidance of a doctor in a safe and regulated manner. We are committed to providing Arizona citizens with the option to pursue a treatment that offers a genuine pathway to recovery, free from the shackles of a lifelong reliance on pills.
Personal stories, not politics on issue of abortion
In Arizona, amidst a critical juncture in the abortion debate, let's prioritize human faces, real experiences, and compelling narratives for compassionate policymaking. Only by appreciating the personal side can we safeguard women's rights and well-being, avoiding a future where women's rights become history.
Legislation seeks permanency for foster children
For the past two decades, hundreds of thousands of American kids have aged out of the foster care system. The Permanency Project proves that those outcomes are not inevitable. And the thoughtful restoration of parental rights can provide a chance for many more.
Donor disclosure will make Arizona politics less civil
Forcing donors to plaster their names on campaigns for controversial issues, they will face unjust retribution and even violence. The public interest of protecting voters from incendiary political attack ads should not come before free expression. Even billionaires are entitled to one of America's most cherished rights.
This session brings a hopeful start on housing
Leadership across both parties seems supportive, and the coalition willing to take action is bipartisan and growing. If we keep up the pressure on our legislators over the next few months there’s a real chance of meaningful action on housing this year.
In Hobbs’ ESA proposal dollars don’t make sense
Student outcomes should be the North Star that guide policymakers and it is their voices (and the voices of their parents) that should be amplified over political saber-rattling.
Why mentoring matters for Arizona youth
If your new year’s resolution was to do something meaningful for another person, this is your opportunity. The kids in our community need more mentors. Both of our organizations have long waiting lists of youth who need a caring adult. They need you. The time is now. Become a mentor and help change a life.
