🔁The Capitol Community is stuck in a Groundhog Day scenario with this year’s budget. 👏While the fate of the budget is still up in the air, we have great news to report! HB 2610 was vetoed by @GovernorHobbs! 🔗📨 tinyurl.com/2610veto

📢 🚨 HB 2610 passed the Senate and heads back to the House. AQE opposes this #AZLeg overreach. Governing board members are chosen by voters. This is a direct attack on local control.📧 Urge @GovernorHobbs to VETO HB 2610! azsba.quorum.us/campaign/10866…

Hobbs wants to deliver $317 million to schools in the 2026 fiscal year. Her plan would create a permanent funding source for teacher pay, according to @AzSBA. @KTAR923 has more👇 #Prop123 ktar.com/arizona-educat…

Opportunity starts in the classroom. We need to pass a Prop 123 extension that raises teacher pay and invests in delivering a high-quality education for every child in our state. I thank the educators with @ArizonaEA for their work on getting this on the ballot.

This week, @GovernorHobbs and Republican lawmakers found common ground on key issues, but there’s still a long road ahead for renewing Prop 123. @AzSBA has endorsed this bipartisan effort, emphasizing the vital role of education in securing AZ’s future. tinyurl.com/arizonasba

Today is Maintenance Worker Appreciation Day! Let's give a big thank you to the men and women who keep our schools running! 🛠️❤️

Today, I released a plan to extend Prop 123 and highlighted the urgent need for the Legislature to put a bipartisan proposal on the ballot for November 2025. Arizona's children can't afford for us to wait.
