Arizona Budget Deal Unveiled

Arizona lawmakers and Governor Hobbs strike a new budget deal after months of back-and-forth, delivering over $1.45 billion in tax relief over four years while cutting $68 million in ongoing spending. The plan reverses some executive tax hikes, includes funding for child safety, rural hospitals, and wildfire suppression, and pauses data center tax breaks for three years. Governor Hobbs calls it a bipartisan, family-focused budget that balances relief with essential services — after vetoing the first version for being too soft on kids’ programs and too generous to big corporations. Votes are expected later this week. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
