  • 40 Legislators Named Guardians of Small Business Each Earned NFIB Honor with Perfect Voting Record on Small‐Business Issues
    Arizona News National Federation of Independent Business 3550 North Central Avenue, Suite 1806 Phoenix, Arizona 85012 (602) 263‐7690 Fax (602) 263‐7790 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Farrell Quinlan, [email protected] Tony Malandra, [email protected] 40 Legislators Named Guardians of Small Business Each earned NFIB honor with perfect voting record on small‐business issues PHOENIX, Ariz., June 2, 2014 — The National Federation of Independent Business announced today that 27 members of the Arizona House of Representatives and 13 members of the Arizona Senate earned its coveted Guardian of Small Business award for their perfect voting records on small‐business issues during the 51st Arizona Legislature. The small business group also highlighted four extraordinary lawmakers from the ranks of the Guardians who distinguished themselves as NFIB/Arizona’s Legislators of the Year. “When they look in the mirror every legislator thinks he or she sees a small‐ business champion even though for many it’s only a politically convenient delusion,” said Farrell Quinlan, Arizona state director for NFIB. “The 40 Guardians of Small Business never wavered in their solidarity with Arizona’s small‐business owners. These legislators delivered solid proof, instead of a fleeting pose, on the issues most critical to the survival and success of our small businesses.” Senators Gail Griffin (R‐Hereford LD14) and Steve Yarbrough (R‐Chandler LD17) are recipients of the 2014 NFIB/Arizona Senator of the Year awards. Representatives J.D. Mesnard (R‐Chandler LD17) and Justin Olson (R‐Mesa The signature Minuteman trophy NFIB has given for decades to the top Guardians of LD25) are recipients of the 2014 NFIB/Arizona Representatives of the Year Small Business award recipients in state awards.

  • 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.
