Leader Cano Responds to Sham GOP Budget Vetoed by Governor Hobbs

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PHOENIX – House Democratic Leader Andrés Cano released the following statement regarding Governor Katie Hobbs' veto of the partisan GOP budget that included no input from Democratic lawmakers or the governor.

“Let us be clear: Republican lawmakers unilaterally introduced a sham budget that they knew would be vetoed. This was a colossal waste of time by the GOP involved no opportunity for compromise or negotiation.

Our doors remain open to Republican lawmakers who are serious about tackling the pressing needs of our state.

We look forward to working on a bipartisan budget that will invest in our schools, tackle inflation, create jobs, and combat rising housing costs.”
