Legislative Majorities Continue To Modify Citizen-Initiatives Bill

The process of getting citizen-driven initiatives on the Arizona ballot is continuing to run into significant modification by legislative majorities.

On Wednesday, HB 2244 was approved on a 16-14 vote by the Senate. The key phrase seems to be “strict compliance” with Arizona election law, as opposed to the current designation of “substantial compliance.”

To help us interpret how this shakes out, we’re joined for a few minutes by Ben Giles of the Arizona Capitol Times.
