Summary:
The committee heard a District 5 New Mexico Department of Transportation presentation from Rhonda Lopez, who reviewed the district’s FY26 budget, staffing vacancies, and the status of special appropriations from 2020 through 2025. She described numerous completed and ongoing projects across the district, including roadway overlays, bridge work, intersection improvements, ADA upgrades, and maintenance projects, and also summarized STIP, TPF, LGRF, and equipment needs. Members asked about a guardrail issue near U.S. 64 in Hogback, the 5% local match for TPF projects, and the status of the New Mexico 371/U.S. 36 intersection funding agreement with the Navajo Nation; DOT said the match is secured or waived where applicable and that the Navajo agreement is nearly finalized.
The committee then heard House Bill 270, which would amend the Public Works Apprentice Training Act to require contributions to apprenticeship and training programs for certain public works contracts, including highway-related work, while creating an exception where no approved apprenticeship program exists for a trade classification. The sponsor said the bill was intended to strengthen workforce development and support apprenticeship training. Contractors and asphalt industry representatives opposed the bill, arguing it would raise road project costs and duplicate existing training contributions. A motion to table failed on a tie, and a later motion to pass also failed on a tie, leaving the bill in committee.
Next, the committee heard House Bill 322, which would create a transportation trust fund and transportation program fund, dedicate additional revenue sources including a portion of electricity GRT and motor vehicle excise tax, and begin annual distributions for federal matching funds in 2029. The sponsor and supporters said the bill would help address a multi-billion-dollar road funding gap, improve maintenance, and provide a stable source for matching federal dollars. Some members raised concerns about the electricity tax component, its effect on utility bills, and overlap with recently enacted transportation financing measures; others supported the concept but questioned timing and funding priorities. A motion on the bill resulted in a tie and failed, leaving the bill in committee.
The meeting concluded with a District 4 NMDOT legislative presentation. The district outlined its geography, budget, staffing vacancy rate, completed special appropriations, active construction and maintenance projects, wildfire-related recovery work, local government funding allocations, and equipment replacement needs. Members asked about school district uses of local funding and the impact of aging equipment and weather on maintenance costs. The presentation ended without any formal action on District 4 items, and the committee adjourned.

Summary:
The Senate Education Committee heard a presentation from Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Horne focused on school safety, academic improvement, career and technical education, ESA oversight, and teacher pay. Horne argued that students cannot learn without safe schools and urged more funding for school police officers, citing threats and violent incidents. He also highlighted Project Momentum, tutoring, attendance, classroom phone restrictions, the Student Industry Partnership, expanded ESA participation, and his call to use Proposition 123 land trust funds for direct teacher raises. In response to a question, he said the department is using AI tools, residency checks, and investigators to reduce ESA fraud and abuse.
The committee then considered SB 1074, which would require written certification from a principal or administrator before a student removed for discipline could return to class. Horne and the sponsor said the bill would support teachers and hold administrators accountable, while opponents from the Arizona Education Association argued it was redundant, could undermine administrator judgment and FERPA-protected information, and would not address the root causes of classroom disruption. The bill passed 4-3. The committee also heard SB 1327, as amended by a strike-everything amendment requiring Arizona public universities to adopt and report on research security policies to protect against foreign adversary threats and preserve federal funding eligibility. Support came from the sponsor, State Armor, and the Arizona Board of Regents, and the amended bill passed 5-2.
Members next approved SB 1475, which bars students convicted of, or admitting to, certain serious offenses from participating in school-sponsored interscholastic activities, with some discussion about rehabilitation, school discretion, and whether a readmittance process should exist. Supporters said the measure was needed for accountability and uniformity after a particularly egregious case; opponents warned it could remove an important rehabilitative outlet. The bill passed 4-3. The committee then advanced SB 1582 and SB 1583, both related to school safety interoperability funding and technical corrections; SB 1582 passed 4-2, and SB 1583, as amended, passed 4-2. Finally, SB 1598, which appropriates $500,000 for school and community gardens, passed unanimously 5-0 after testimony that gardens serve as hands-on learning spaces and supportive environments for students.

- that UNGA Resolution 2758 does not exclude Taiwan's international participation, nor authorize the PRC
- Nor authorize the PRC to represent Taiwan.
Summary:
The House opened with prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance, approval of the journal, and a proclamation sponsored by Representative Tony Rivero supporting stronger Arizona-Taiwan relations. Rivero introduced guests from the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Los Angeles and said a bipartisan Arizona-Taiwan caucus would be created, noting plans for a Taiwan consulate in Phoenix. The chamber then moved into Committee of the Whole to consider Senate bills on two calendars.
On the first calendar, the House advanced SB 1004, SB 1012, SB 1040, SB 1049, SB 1168, and SB 1326, while retaining SB 1538. SB 1004 received a Judiciary amendment described as helping law enforcement track homeless sex offenders. SB 1049 drew criticism from Representative Gutierrez, who said it would harm spouses seeking maintenance after divorce. SB 1168 received and adopted Appropriations amendments, and SB 1021 on the second calendar was amended and advanced despite concerns from Representative Liguori about legislative involvement in criminal matters. Other bills debated included SB 1052 on mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy in assisted living, SB 1172 on re-credentialing timelines, SB 1188 on aligning controlled substance schedules with federal law, SB 1212, SB 1346 on claims notification and fraud prevention, SB 1452, and SB 1494 on preventing patient-brokering fraud; several drew opposition over cost, necessity, or policy concerns, but all were advanced.
After the Committee of the Whole report was adopted, the House placed several bills on third reading and took final votes. SB 1164, SB 1174, SB 1189, and SB 1754 passed unanimously or nearly unanimously. SB 1413, concerning restitution and a moving-violation-related offense, failed after Representative Cullin warned it could impose uncapped restitution in multi-car collisions; the final vote was 2 ayes and 48 nays. The House then reconsidered that action on motion of Representative Martinez, restoring SB 1413 to third reading, and adjourned until Monday, April 20, 2026.
