Help Protect Our Neighbors — Take Action Today

Help protect our democracy and neighbors throughout Arizona from harmful legislation moving through the State Legislature this week. Several bills would expand immigration enforcement, increase detention funding, restrict protest rights, and criminalize community support, including:

  • HCR 2001 is a proposal to change Arizona’s Constitution around how elections work. It would limit voting to U.S. citizens, require government-issued ID to vote, restrict early voting to end the Friday before Election Day, and require voters to request mail ballots each election after showing proof of citizenship. Because this is a constitutional amendment, it would not become law unless Arizona voters approve it on a statewide ballot. If voters reject it, nothing changes.

  • SCR1001 this bill is framed as an “election security” measure, it would create new barriers that could prevent eligible Arizonans from fully participating in our democracy.
