Request to Speak on More Bills that Make It Hard to Vote - 2/4/2023

At the Arizona state legislature this week there are several bills (again!) that make it more difficult to vote. Please, sign onto the Request to Speak system and weigh in while they are still in committee.

If you have a RTS account sign in here:  https://apps.azleg.gov/account/signon

 

 

NOTE: Three bills from last week’s Request to Speak action have moved on to another committee. If you have already weighed in on them your response is still in the system, so there is no need to do that again.  If you haven’t, it is even more important that you weigh in now since those bills have moved even closer to a vote on the floor.  I will indicate the repeat bills in red.

There were also several bad water bills and good recreation bills being heard this week. You can find them here.

(Two of those bills were posted after I weighed in on RTS last week, so I weighed in this week.)

Monday, February 6th

Senate Committee on Elections at 2:00 PM
Members of the public may access a livestream of the meeting here.

Senate Transportation and Technology at 2:00 PM

  • SB1122 transportation tax; election; Maricopa county (Farnsworth: Cook) directs Maricopa County to hold an election for the sales tax for transportation and prescribes how much it will be and what it will be used for, including that 80% will go to freeways. OPPOSE
  • SB1312 vehicle mileage; tracking; tax; prohibitions (Hoffman) prohibits the state or any political subdivisions from developing land use or transportation plans that include vehicle miles traveled reductions, prohibits VMT tracking, and prohibits any per mile fees. This last item is being looked at as an alternative to the gas tax. This bill also runs counter to state implementation plans for reducing pollution. OPPOSE

Wednesday, February 8th

House Committee on Government at 9:00 AM .

House Committee on Municipal Oversight & Elections at 2:00 PM

  • HB2231 early absentee voting; limitations; conflicts (Harris: Heap, Jones, et al.) makes early voting into absentee voting and only allows someone to vote early under certain conditions. This would decrease voting significantly. OPPOSE
  • HB2415 active early voting lists; removal (Biasiucci: Bliss, Carbone) removes voters from the active early voting list if they fail to vote early in one election cycle, instead of two. This will result in a significant purge of this list and in fewer people voting. OPPOSE
  • HCR2033 primary elections; eligible candidates (Smith: Chaplik, Heap, et al.) refers to the ballot a constitutional amendment that says each political party can nominate just the number of offices available and any others would go on the next general election. It would preclude ranked choice voting. OPPOSE
