Keeping people who are here illegally from voting preserves election integrity
The right to vote is a sacred right given to U.S. citizens. It is incumbent upon us to ensure the integrity of our electoral process. The future of our republic depends on our vigilance and our unwavering commitment to protecting the right to vote for every American citizen.
K-12 funding formula works if adequately funded
The current funding formula is not the problem. The lack of sufficient funding that keeps the state ranked last and does not adequately address the needs of ALL students is the problem.
Fix critical health care program for the needy
Now that we’ve identified the problems, it is time for Congress to come up with an answer. Fortunately, there are several bills aimed at bringing greater regulatory oversight and federal guidance to the 340b program. They’ve been introduced before but have unfortunately fallen victim to special interests which thrive in the current ambiguity of the system. My hope is that there is momentum[...]
Voters will have their say in November on border measure
When faced with a significant crisis, it is crucial for elected leaders to act decisively. This is exactly what the Arizona Legislature did by passing HCR2060, known as the “Secure... […]
Ag-to-urban groundwater incentive a win for Arizona
Arizona has a history of innovative and forward-thinking water policy. We must meet the moment again. The Ag-to-Urban incentive and the water package can be implemented immediately to meet demand for housing in a responsible way and create a bridge to a sustainable future with conservation, water reuse, and renewable supplies.
Critiquing judges’ decisions valid in merit selection
Arizona voters have a right to weigh in on the retention of judges based on the Merit selection system – and they should continue to have this right. And perhaps more importantly, they should have the right to exercise it however they see fit (and certainly without the narrow constraints suggested by a group of lawyers who regularly appear in front of these judges).
ACC should uphold siting panel Unisource decision
The ACC commissioners should uphold the overwhelming decision of the committee they just appointed last year – the committee that listened to two days of testimony and oral arguments and reviewed dozens of exhibits. The committee got it right and the ACC should deny Unisource’s request. Doing anything else would needlessly cede half of the authority of the ACC’s own Line Siting Committee.
If a felon runs for president, let all ex-felons vote
If we are seriously considering the prospect of a convicted felon running for and being elected to the office of the presidency, we must also address the broader issue of felon disenfranchisement.
Good faith bill would outlaw discrimination in medical care and insurance coverage
SB 1511, the “Detransitioner Bill of Rights,” guarantees equality of care and coverage for overlooked, underserved people. In a March 31 opinion piece, activist Christiana Hammond accuses supporters of SB... […]
Merit Selection – a system worth preserving
In our system we go to the Legislature to rescind unpopular laws. We rely on judges to decide cases presented to them in a fair and impartial way, bringing all the learning they can to achieve a result required by judicial principles, not popular opinion.
Schools are failing students, families — action needed
Parents are in charge of their child’s education, and schools are accountable to them. It’s time for all Arizonans to unite and demand decisive action against the influence of radical indoctrination in our education system.
Public safety, sustainability overrides foolish phobia
Investors, insurers, and companies are evolving to be sustainable and profitable with public safety in mind. Yet our ACC fails in their constitutional duty when they refuse to consider ESG. If the Legislature bans business with a company that has an ESG score, they will drive most major business out of Arizona.
