The Senate has just passed movie tax credits, giving hundreds of millions in taxpayer subsidies to woke Hollywood elites.

Some good news, the Senate has just passed HB2243 (the new HB2617) ensuring clean and current voter rolls. Thanks to Representative Chaplik for championing this bill and Representative Hoffman for opening up his bill in the Senate to revive this critical election integrity measure.

JUST NOW: The Arizona House has PASSED Rep. Hoffman’s HB2495, protecting Arizona students from sexually explicit materials in schools! It now heads to the Governor!

ELECTION INTEGRITY ALERT: The Arizona House has PASSED HB2243, which revived HB2617 that was vetoed by the Governor last month. Thank you Rep. Chaplik for sponsoring and working tirelessly to get this bill passed and to keep it strong to ensure we have clean and current voter rolls! Onto the Governor.

NOW: Rep. Hoffman explains why Hollywood tax credits is a BAD idea!

The House has passed HB2156, giving hundreds of millions in taxpayer subsidies to woke Hollywood liberals to make movies. The bill was supported by almost all of the democrats, and OPPOSED by a MAJORITY of Republicans. Tell the Governor to VETO!

The House has passed HB2685, the $36 billion Maricopa County Transit Slush Fund to build light rail, trollies, and bike paths - NOT roads and freeways. As Biden said just yesterday, their goal is to “take millions of cars off the roads.” ALL of the democrats voted for this, 21 Republicans voted NO. Tell the Governor to VETO!

WATCH: Yesterday, Representative Grantham explained his NO vote on the taxpayer subsidy for woke Hollywood producers to film movies in Arizona. Thank you Rep. Grantham, and to everyone who voted NO. Email Governor Ducey and tell him to VETO HB2156! https://www.votervoice.net/AZFEC/Campaigns/92108/Respond

Please pass along to your friends in LD23

This district covers southern Yuma, Gila Bend, Buckeye and Avondale. The only Republican running in the house was bounced in a signature challenge and it’s important we get at least 492 republicans to write Michelle Pena in. We must give voters a option to vote for against the Radical Left in November! Let’s make sure she gets on the ballot in August!!

DOJ sues Arizona over proof of citizenship voter law

The Biden Administration has sued Arizona over HB 2492, my legislation that requires documentary proof of citizenship in order to vote on Federal Only ballots for President.

A review of the Biden adminstration's lawsuit reveals their total and utter incompetence. Biden and his team of radicals are incapable of basic analysis and reasoned decisionmaking.

Biden claims HB 2492 is unconstitutional...

Biden's claim that HB 2492 is unconstitutional ignores... the Constitution.

While Congress may pass laws pertaining to the “Times, Places, and Manners” of electing Representatives and Senators under the Elections Clause, the Constitution gives no such power over Presidential elections. To the contrary, Article 2 Section 1 Clause 2 (the Electors Clause) grants that power solely to state legislatures.

In other words, while the federal government may require us to accept the federal form and register individuals to vote in congressional elections, they may not require us to do the same for presidential elections.

Biden claims that HB 2492 adds a requirement for "place of birth" that did not previously exist...

The Biden DOJ’s claim that HB 2492 adds a place of birth requirement that was not previously on our voter registration form is patently false and further reinforces the complete incompetence of the Biden administration.

Box 13 on the existing state voter registration form as provided by the Secretary of State, a Democrat currently, already lists Place of Birth because statute currently requires it, regardless of HB 2492.

Additionally, the recommendation for the collection of this information came from the bipartisan Election Assistance Commission.

Regardless of the Biden administration’s disinformation to the contrary, collection of this information will help Arizona obtain evidence of citizenship on an applicant’s behalf so they can, if eligible, vote in all elections—not just those for federal office.

--------

The Biden administration is politicizing yet another issue in our nation for their own selfish, partisan gain. They are a disgrace to the positions that they hold. The American people are sick and tired of it.

House Bill 2492 is a common sense, data driven answer to a highly concerning trend of significant increases in the number of voters casting federal only ballots with no documentary proof of citizenship having been verified.

It is wholly reasonable and, more importantly, constitutional to enact laws that do not permit NON-citizens to vote.

Arizona will win these baseless, partisan lawsuits.

BAD NEWS: Ducey has transmitted HB2156 directly to the Secretary of State, without signature or veto, meaning it will become law. HB2156 is the $125 million handout to woke Hollywood liberals to import thousands of California voters into Arizona to make movies. The proponents and Governor were warned about the likely unconstitutionality of this bill, and it would be reasonable to expect to see it in the courts shortly.

GOOD NEWS: Governor Ducey has SIGNED HB2243, the revival of the vetoed HB2617, a comprehensive voter roll maintenance measure ensuring only qualified individuals are voting in our elections. Huge THANK YOU to Representive Chaplik for his dedication and hard work to get this reform across the finish line, and to the THOUSANDS of activists who continued to contact their lawmakers and the Governor telling them to SUPPORT clean and current voter rolls.

Shifts are between 2-4 hours long. Mostly standing. There is an 8am and a 1pm check in time the SOS.

Money talks. Rep. David Cook getting over $120k in help from big unions. No wonder, Rep. David Cook was the SOLE “Republican” to vote with every democrat last year to kill legislation that would have prohibited cities and counties from requiring prevailing wages or union labor as a condition of receiving a bid or contract…
