Press release from the House Democratic Caucus:

GOP passes special interest bill giving Tea Party special Arizona license plate

STATE CAPITOL, PHOENIX – House Minority Leader Chad Campbell released the following statement tonight on Tea Party license plate bill (SB 1402), which was sent to the governor:

“Arizonans are sick of the shenanigans. Here again is another wasteful bill that Republicans, who control all of state government, passed on behalf of their special interest friends. It’s a waste of taxpayers’ time and money, and it’s a waste of state government. We’re all fed up with the way those in control are abusing a government that is supposed to work for Arizona families, that is supposed to be honest and effective. A bill to give a special license plate away to raise money for the Tea Party is not something that will help this state dig itself out of a recession, help families get jobs, help schoolchildren get a better education or help businesses to grow. It’s time for strict accountability measures that make government work for Arizonans.”
