PHOENIX – Representative Junelle Cavero commended school staff and students in her district for their quick actions today that resulted in two students being detained by Phoenix Police for bringing a firearm onto campus. A student at Sunland STEAM Academy, a K-8 school in the Roosevelt School District in South Phoenix, tipped off school officials. No one was threatened or harmed as the school was placed on a temporary lockdown and the weapon confiscated, according to a district statement. "Our community is exceptionally grateful to the student who saw something and bravely said something. That helped avoid a potentially dangerous situation," Cavero said. "The quick reaction by staff and Phoenix Police, and the care shown for students and staff who needed additional support afterwards, should also be commended."

“It makes me sick to my stomach to continue to have these bills heard.”

Assistant Democratic Leader Nancy Gutierrez is not the only one. House Democrats spoke against this spiteful bill attempting to reach voters after multiple vetoes.

House Democrats fought hard against HB2940 during debate and during today’s vote, but Republicans are determined to make life harder for vulnerable Arizonans.

A Republican bill to continue DES contains previously vetoed policies to kick tens of thousands of struggling Arizonans off SNAP food assistance & AHCCCS healthcare. Rep. Cesar Aguilar moved to strip these hostage provisions. But — shocker! — Republicans chose politics over an Arizona we can afford.

“Every day we choose cages over classrooms.” Rep. Stephanie Stahl Hamilton and House Democrats say the true measure of society is how it treats its children, and under Trump the U.S. is failing the test.

HB4009 goes down 29-25

Good morning! We just stopped a bad bill to map out state lands to be consumed by water and electricity-hogging data centers. Republicans rejected @LorenaAustin4Az’s amendment to inform residents of how much energy and water nearby data centers are using and how much it’s increasing your costs.
