AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Opioid Funds Fight: Arizona AG Kris Mayes says a new audit backs her claim that opioid settlement money was improperly diverted to the Department of Corrections—raising the risk the state could lose future payments, and she’s weighing whether to sue Gov. Katie Hobbs and lawmakers. Elections Clash: Mayes also escalated her fight with Maricopa County Recorder Justin Heap after he mishandled non-citizen voting claims—only turning over names after threats of legal action. School Pivot: Chandler Unified moved fast after The Hope Institute abruptly closed, approving a lease to keep serving students in the same space with a new provider. Wildfire Costs: Jet fuel prices are climbing, and Arizona wildfire officials warn the higher aerial firefighting costs could land on taxpayers. AI Backlash: At Arizona graduations, students booed pro-AI speakers like Eric Schmidt, underscoring anxiety about jobs. Local Briefs: A fatal Chandler house fire is under investigation; and Colorado beat Arizona 3-2 in a ninth-inning rally.
