Arizona's $17.8 Billion Budget: Compromises and Controversies.
TL;DR Summary
Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs and Republican leaders have agreed on a $17.8 billion budget, which will be the largest in state history. The budget includes a $260 million one-time rebate for families, $150 million for the state's housing trust fund, and eliminates results-based funding for high-performing K-12 schools. However, Democrats are unhappy with the lack of cap or cuts on universal school vouchers and underfunding of their agencies. The budget bills now go to the full House and Senate for consideration.
