For Star subscribers: Arizona's 2023 legislative session begins Monday with plenty of contentious issues on the horizon.
As in education funding and election issues.They're certainly not all that is likely to be on the agenda
Only thing is, they never addressed the fact that voters in 1980 approved an"aggregate expenditure cap," an absolute limit on what the state can spend on education. But all those cuts would have to be made in the months remaining in the fiscal year, essentially tripling the effect. And some districts have warned that could force schools to actually shut down.
"We don't have a charter school every three miles," he said."And those small public district schools are the only system that we have.'' Look for legislation designed to address at least some of the issues that Lake contends resulted in erroneous election returns.Some Republicans contend — without proof — that provides an opportunity for mischief as election officials can tally those early ballots and then figure how many fake ones they need to insert to alter the results.Lawmakers approved a ban on so-called"ballot harvesting" years ago, making it a felony to take someone else's voted ballot to a polling place.
GOP legislators last year approved a 15-week ban in anticipation of a revamped Supreme Court upholding a similar law from Mississippi. But the majority of the justices went further, overturning the 1973 decision and letting states set their own rules. Hobbs wants to return the law to where it was before last year's Supreme Court ruling, when abortions could be performed up until fetal viability, meaning 22 to 24 weeks. That also takes care of the problem that the 15-week law has no exceptions beyond that point in cases of rape or incest.
The legislation also revamped the little known Water Infrastructure Finance Authority, which had existed mainly to provide grants for small projects, giving its new board, headed by a Ducey appointee, the power to negotiate.
