Ducey, GOP lawmakers – pushers for the rich
The way to deal with the big boy and pushers in any community, or state, that is fed up with a drug problem; bust the kingpin, destroy the network of pushers and kick ‘em out of town.
Water infrastructure an investment in healthy environment, economy
Addressing the critical needs of our water infrastructure does so much more than secure a sustainable water future. Investment will create critically important jobs; help improve our economy and assist disadvantaged communities by providing access to clean and reliable water supplies. Finally, these infrastructure projects will help us adjust to our changing climate and better protect the environ[...]
Family planning program deserves our support
To truly take meaningful action toward repairing the damage done to the nation’s family planning program, Health and Human Services should listen to safety-net family planning providers from across the country about what they need to make it right so that all people — no matter who they are, where they live, or how much money they make — have the family planning and sexual health care they n[...]
Attacks on ballot initiatives are anti-democratic
Arizonans do not want to see ballot initiatives go away and we should not have to give up our constitutional protections to this right any time soon. Arizona representatives owe it to their constituents to vote no on SCR1024, SB1531 and HB2891 to save the people of Arizona’s constitutional right to democratic participation.
Conservative criminal justice bill could boost safety, save tax dollars
As session closes in on the finish line, legislators have a great opportunity to deliver another win for Arizonans by passing Senate Bill 1064 to improve safety through earned second chances.
Elections law is simply voter suppression
SB1485, which our governor signed as quickly as possible, to avoid voter contact, which he knows is objectionable, is voter suppression pure and simple. Other words are just distractions to this fact. Voters know this and will act.
Time to restore fairness in the App marketplace
As this issue heats up, Arizona’s congressional delegation should help ensure fairness for app developers of all sizes by addressing some of the more flagrant anti-competitive restrictions and regulations that Apple uses to maintain its dominance in the marketplace. Doing so would help spur innovation and drive growth across the tech sector.
Electricity grid not ready for EV revolution
California’s rolling blackouts last year, followed by the Texas grid catastrophe in February — and now the threat of blackouts across the Western U.S. this summer — are a wakeup call. We need a grid we can count on. Ensuring we do means properly valuing the dispatchable, reliable generating capacity we already have.
Rep. Cook looks out for LD8 cities, towns
We wish to make it perfectly clear to all of our municipal residents: We stand with Representative Cook in protecting our public safety budgets and bringing funding to Pinal County to help mitigate our state’s long term water shortage.
PRO Act hurts workers, threatens economic recovery
All the PRO Act would do is help union leaders increase membership numbers by infringing on the rights of employees as well as employers. Taking away employee choice on whether to join a union, how much a union takes out of their paycheck, what happens to their private data, and whether they even have a job is not the answer.
Where Arizonans agree, leaders should follow
Seven in ten Arizonans are proud to call this state home. And three in four Arizonans are willing to speak with others who hold different views in order to work through issues. This is a wonderful foundation on which to come together to create change.
We’re all lucky for Biden, Sinema, Kelly
We're seeing the end of the pandemic approach faster than we expected thanks to President Biden and the American Rescue Plan.
