Arizona Legislature, Speaker Kirk Adams, Budget, Special Session

Statement from Speaker of the House RE: Today's Special Session

“Nearly 12 months into the worst budget deficit and economic crisis this State has ever faced, not a single Democrat has voted to reduce government spending by even one dollar. The Democrats have yet to produce a detailed budget proposal, and have decided to use procedural tactics to block these necessary cuts from coming to the Floor, cuts that even they acknowledged are necessary.

The Democrats partisan gamesmanship will result in the wasting of thousands of taxpayer dollars. We ask our Democratic members to stop the stall tactics and get into the game.”
