Governor Katie Hobbs Legislative Action Update

News Release

April 18, 2025

Phoenix, AZ - Today, Governor Katie Hobbs took action on bills received before she announced the bill moratorium on April 17. Until the Republican majority stops holding Arizonans with disabilities hostage and sends a bipartisan, negotiated bill to protect lifesaving services for people with autism, cerebral palsy, and Down syndrome, every other bill will be vetoed.
