Legislation designed to protect student journalists from censorship has hit a roadblock Thursday amid criticism from some lawmakers that they're not entitled to those protections.

We all know about reading, writing and arithmetic, but have you ever thought about the importance of our children learning civics? Arizona is leading a push to make sure civics is a part of our curricula. In 2015, Governor Ducey and legislators made sure students had to pass a civics test to graduate from high school. That begins with this year’s senior class. Arizona was the first state in the nation to make this requirement.

Arizona is doing well in regards to gender representation in the state Legislature, but it could take 30 years before the state reaches gender parity in its law-making body.

A House panel voted 10-1 Monday to protect student journalists despite objections by one lawmaker who feared giving too much power to "children.''

Sen. Kimberly Yee, R-Phoenix, has won re-election despite a last-minute flurry of spending against her.

Sen. Kimberly Yee wants to ensure that last year’s revelations about per diem payments to two members of the Industrial Commission of Arizona won’t repeat themselves.

Arizona has more than 200 boards and commissions whose duties range from licensing cosmetologists and dental examiners to promoting research on grain and iceberg lettuce, and Gov. Doug Ducey is looking to trim that number.

Two members of the Industrial Commission of Arizona who were recently outed as having requested excessive amounts of per diem reimbursements have resigned their positions, as has the agency’s executive director.
