Another relatively quiet week at the Arizona Legislature. "Relatively" being the important word here.
On Monday, 5/2, the Senate Ethics Committee meets at 1:45 p.m. in SHR1 to discuss an ethics complaint brought against Senator Lisa Otondo.. I don't what that's about.
Om Tuesday, 5/3. Senate Education meets at 1 p.m. in SHR1 to consider/rubber stamp some executive nominations.
At least one of the nominees, Chad Heinrich, is an active lobbyist.
Note: HHR refers to a hearing room in the House building; SHR refers to one in the Senate building.
Note2: Generally, I'll only specify bills that look to propagate propaganda. Other bills may be more conventionally bad (think: corrupt or other misuses of public monies and/or authority. My recommendation is that if an agenda covers an area of interest to you, read the entire agenda.
Note3: Each chamber's respective Rules Committee meets on Monday, the House's in HHR4 at 1 p.m. and the Senate's in Senate Caucus Room 1, also at 1 p.m. Both committees serve as rubber stamps for bills leadership wants to be advanced and gatekeepers for measures that leadership wants stopped.
Note4: Meeting start times may be listed, but are flexible. Before journeying to the Capitol or viewing the meeting online, verify the start time.
Note5: Watch for strikers, or strike everything amendments. Those involve inserting language into the entirety of a bill. Those can be introduced at any time and can make a previously harmless bill into a very bad one.
