For Star subscribers: It's no surprise Arizona's Democratic governor has vetoed many bills passed by the Republican Legislature. But only one has been compelling enough to provoke a likely override.
Tim Steller After dozens of vetoes, Gov. Katie Hobbs finally crossed a line, angering Republicans, some fellow Democrats and a good portion of the public.HB 2509 was one of 11 bills that Hobbs vetoed Tuesday, bringing her total to a record 62 for the session. Many of those vetoes were not surprising, given that she's a Democratic governor often working at cross-purposes to the Legislature, with its slim Republican majorities.
The bill was by Republican state Rep. Travis Grantham, of Gilbert. One of its key supporters, in the aftermath of the veto, has been Tucson Democratic Rep. Alma Hernandez. She has the benefit of being from a family that sold cakes to help make ends meet, and of having a master's degree in public health."This bill would significantly increase the risk of food-borne illness by expanding the ability of cottage food vendors to sell high-risk foods," her veto letter said.
SB 1248, sponsored by Sen. T.J. Shope would have repealed a regulatory process required of health professions that are expanding their scope. Certified nurse anesthetists, for example, had to go through this process and fight anesthesiologists to gain some rights to practice in Arizona Engel to run in CD6 againKirsten Engel, the Tucson Democrat who lost narrowly in the 2022 congressional election, has become the first Democrat to file her intent to run for the office again next year.
Ciscomani starts the race with a big fundraising advantage. As of the end of March, he had almost $1 million on hand, whereas Engel, who had not announced yet, had just over $2,000.
