Hey all - We have 3 bills moving through the Arizona legislature that need your attention right now. HB2758 would allow a New York investment fund to drain 26 billion gallons of groundwater from La Paz County aquifers, wiping out the only state LAW protecting that water. Contact your state senator and urge a no vote.

HB2133, framed as anti-revenge porn legislation, would let politicians flag AI-generated content as harmful and censor online political speech ... Governor Hobbs is reportedly inclined to sign it, so call 602-542-4331 or email engage@az.gov to demand a veto.

Republican budget negotiators are also finalizing a closed-door budget before a June 30 deadline - the last version cut Medicaid, SNAP, and public education while delivering a $1.4 billion tax cut to the wealthy, so contact Steve Montenegro (smontenegro@azleg.gov / 602-926-3635), Michael Carbone (mcarbone@azleg.gov / 602-926-4038), and Senate President Warren Petersen (wpetersen@azleg.gov / 602-926-4136).

• HB2758 - find your senator: https://www.azleg.gov/findmylegislator/
• HB2133 - call or email Hobbs: 602-542-4331 / engage@az.gov
• Budget - contact negotiators: smontenegro@azleg.gov / mcarbone@azleg.gov / wpetersen@azleg.gov
• Background on all three: https://weekly.cebv.us/2026-05-18/
