Arizona families are getting squeezed by higher rent, utilities, and grocery prices. So what did Republicans make their first priority this session? Attacking your right to vote.

The very first bill Legislative Republicans introduced this session was to strip Arizonans of their voting rights -- not legislation that would address issues facing everyday people, like the affordability crisis. Today, Legislative Democratic Leaders Priya Sundareshan and Oscar

Republicans not having a plan? What’s new.

NO PLAN: “There is no Republican budget.” -Matt Gress, Republican lawmaker and vice chair of the appropriations committee

House Education just heard Rep. Nick Kupper’s attack on public school librarians. His evidence that school libraries are too liberal in their book collections? The Cato Institute, a hard-right libertarian think tank founded a Koch brother…so big grain of salt. What don’t they

“This is such a waste of time and taxpayer dollars.” — Rep. Stephanie Simacek on Rep. Kupper’s attack on public school librarians #HB2008.

Today, Republicans fast-tracked a $1 billion tax bill filled with corporate giveaways, threatening funding for schools and essential services. Democrats are fighting for an Arizona We Can Afford: lower costs, strong public schools, and affordable healthcare.

Make no mistake, Democrats support tax relief for working and middle-class families who are struggling to make ends meet in Trump's failing economy. But this bill puts funding for education, health care, and vital state services in jeopardy -- and Governor Hobbs will veto it.

While Arizona families struggle with rising costs, Republicans in both chambers passed tax cuts for the wealthiest and big corporations. Today and every day, Democrats stand united with Arizona families to build an Arizona we can all afford.
