Arizona voters will decide 10 GOP-backed ballot measures in November on schools, elections, taxes
When Arizona voters go to the polls in November to decide who will be the next governor and hold the other statewide offices, they’ll also get to weigh in directly on some of the policy priorities of the Republicans who currently run the state legislature.
In all, legislators sent 10 measures to this year’s ballot, where voters will get the final say. Half of those proposals seek to amend the Arizona Constitution, which requires voter approval. The other half make changes to state law, but were sent to the ballot to avoid a veto from Gov. Katie Hobbs, a Democrat who has shattered the state’s record for vetoes during her four years in office.
Voters may also get to weigh in on competing ballot measures that would regulate Arizona’s universal private school voucher program and guarantee a right to vote by mail. Those citizens’ initiatives have until next month to gather hundreds of thousands of signatures to qualify for the November ballot.
Here are brief summaries of the 10 measures that the Arizona Legislature sent to the ballot; each will be given its own proposition number later this summer.
