Legislative schedule - Sine Die edition

As the AZlege has adjourned sine die, meaning that won't convene again until January unless Gov. Hobbs calls a special session of the legislature, this will be the last post on this topic, unless there's activity of interest, as there is this week.

While the lege isn't in session, the propaganda-spewing on the taxpayer dime will continue.




On Monday, 8/7


,















A joint meeting of three committees, Senate Natural Resources Energy and Water, House Natural Resources Energy & Water, and House Land, Agriculture & Rural Affairs meets at 5 p.m. at 700 W. Beale Street in Kingman,

Kingman is in Mohave County, a hotbed of election denialism

On the meeting agenda?



The Washington Post just published a story on just this subject -

Biden expected to create Grand Canyon national monument to block new mining, sources say

President Biden is leaning toward designating a vast area near the Grand Canyon as a national monument to safeguard it from uranium mining, according to five people familiar with the plans.

Leaders of local tribes and environmentalists have spent years lobbying to protect areas near the park from potential uranium mining, which they say would threaten aquifers and water supplies. They have asked Washington to double the protected area around the canyon by including 1.1 million acres of public lands in a Baaj Nwaavjo I’tah Kukveni Grand Canyon National Monument.

Between the location and the topic, expect there to be a lot of anti-society/anti-tribal/anti-POTUS propaganda to be spewed.


On Wednesday, 8/9 


-















Two interim committees are scheduled to meet.

Hydrogen Study Committee meets at 2 p.m. in SHR1.

Joint Legislative Ad Hoc Study Committee on Air Quality meets at 3:30 p.m. in SHR1.

Both are scheduled to hear some pro-industry presentations.
