Hide your children and small animals - the Arizona Legislature will reconvene this week.
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 that replaces the entirety of a bill. Those can be introduced at any time and can make a previously harmless bill into a very bad one.
On Monday, January 9, the state legislature will reconvene and, as such, the respective chambers' respective Rules Committees aren't scheduled to meet. They will have nothing to rubberstamp/stop.
On Tuesday, January 10 -
The House and Senate Commerce Joint Committee of Reference meets at 2 p.m. in HHR1. No bills on the agenda.

On Wednesday, January 11 -
House Way and Means meets at 9 a.m. in HHR1. One bill on the agenda, and it's a bad one - HB2003, a proposal to cut corporate income tax rates by almost 50%. Ideologically driven to the point that there isn't yet a fiscal note attached to this one.
From a presentation by Doug Ducey's Office of Strategic Planning and Budgeting -
