Your Voice 2014.Ai YOUR VOICE AT THE CAPITOL 2014 STATE LEGISLATORS At the beginning of each Legislative session the League compiles current contact information for all of Arizona’s 30 State Senators and 60 State Representatives in order to facilitate lobbying efforts for cities and towns. The list includes the following the name of each Senator and Representative, the party they belong to, their district and the cities and towns they represent the Capitol address and toll- free number (listed below) legislators’ office phone numbers legislators’ e-mail addresses Another useful tool for accessing legislative information is the Legislature’s web site. The address is www.azleg.gov. Using the links provided on the web page you can retrieve brief biographies of legislators and what committees they serve on, access complete texts of introduced legislation and obtain the status of any bill. Summaries of each bill can also be found on this site once the bill has been assigned to committee. The League offices are always available for your use during the legislative session. The League facilities provide a convenient place for meeting with State Legislators, particularly for local officials outside the metropolitan Phoenix area. We hope the list will be helpful to you in contacting your legislators on all issues of major municipal concern. Please feel free to contact the League staff should you have any questions regarding legislation or contacting your legislators.

  • Legislative Bulletin Is Published by the League of Arizona Cities and Towns
    ISSUE 11 - MARCH 18, 2011 Legislative Overview Today is the 68th day of the first session of Arizona's 50th Legislature. The past week was an unusually busy one at the State Capitol, where the news was dominated by the Senate budget plan (see story below), the forced ouster of the Senate Majority Leader and defeat of immigration bills authored by the Senate President. Late Tuesday, Senate leadership released its comprehensive budget plan. The package of budget bills (SB 1612 through SB 1624) includes spending reductions at least $368 million deeper than those proposed by Governor Brewer. It also omits some $275 million in spending increases proposed in the Governor's budget. The budget package passed the Senate on Wednesday on a series of votes that generally followed along party lines. In other news, Republicans voted 12-9 to remove Senator Scott Bundgaard (R-Peoria) from his leadership position as Senate Majority Leader. He was replaced by Senator Andy Biggs (R-Gilbert). Highway User Revenue Fund Among the proposals included in the Senate budget is a diversion of $83 million from the Highway User Revenue Fund (HURF) to the Arizona Department of Transportation. Approximately one-half of that amount, $43 million, comes from that portion of HURF funding distributed to cities, towns and counties. The net effect on municipalities is a loss of approximately $26 million in HURF distributions over and above the $12.5 million reduction previously proposed by the Governor. The League opposes the additional HURF reduction and prefers and supports the Governor's budget. We will continue to work constructively with legislators and the Governor on a final budget that minimizes negative impacts on cities and towns.

  • End of Session Report
    2014 End of Session Report ARIZONA PEST PROFESSIONALS ORGANIZATION Prepared by: Capitol Consulting, LLC 818 N. 1st Street Phoenix, AZ 85004 www.azcapitolconsulting.com P a g e | 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Dear AZPPO Members: Sine Die! On April 24, 2014, the 51st Arizona Legislature adjourned sine die at 1:46 AM after 101 days in session. By rule a session can last 100 days with provisions in place for extending it. As you recall, those provisions were put to the test last year with the uncomfortably long 151-day session. The 51st Legislature, 2nd Regular Session officially commenced January 13, 2014. A total of 1,205 bills were introduced by the legislature and of those, 276 have been signed by Governor Janice K. Brewer. The session began as usual with the governor announcing policy priorities for the year during the State of the State address. The governor’s priorities were perhaps met with a little more attentiveness from the legislature after a rocky end to the 2013 session. As you may recall part of the Governor’s ambitious 2013 agenda meant crossing political boundaries at the expense of the most conservative within the state’s GOP. In 2013, the governor muscled her way to pass the Medicaid expansion. After weeks of stalled budget negotiations, the Governor called a Special Legislative Session in an effort to bypass House and Senate leadership and call Medicaid to question. The move sparked rumors of a legislative coup and drove a wedge straight through the Republican caucus, dividing the moderate and conservative members. During her final State of the State address in January, Governor Brewer focused on two priorities including a complete overhaul of the state’s defunct child protective services and a proposal to create new incentives for manufactures to set up shop in Arizona.
