Summary: The House opened with prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance, approved the journal, and recognized Dr. Kai Sun as Doctor of the Day. Members also welcomed newly sworn Representative Cody Reim, congratulated Sergeant-at-Arms Chuck Fitzgerald on his wedding, and introduced numerous guests and visiting groups, including pharmacists at Pharmacy Day, the Arizona Education Association, the Well-Being Collaborative of Arizona, and local officials from San Luis. The chamber then took up several measures. House Resolution 2001, recognizing March 18, 2026 as Health Workforce Well-Being Day in Arizona, was adopted unanimously after brief remarks about burnout and workforce shortages in health care. On House Bill 2375, relating to housing and historic neighborhoods, members debated at length the balance between middle-housing reforms, local control, historic preservation, and concerns about exclusion and displacement; the bill passed 31-24, but the emergency clause failed because it did not receive the required two-thirds vote. House Bill 2931, creating the Arizona Civil Rights Advisory Board, passed 36-19, and House Bill 2992, establishing a child sexual abuse and assault awareness and prevention pilot program with appropriations, passed 35-20. The House also passed Senate Bill 1010, substituted for House Bill 4027, relating to historic names, by a vote of 33-22. Several other Senate bills were read for the first time or second reading, and committee assignments were adjusted, including withdrawals and re-referrals of multiple bills. The session concluded with announcements of upcoming committee meetings, a statement from the Arizona Latino Legislative Caucus condemning alleged misconduct and affirming support for survivors, and adjournment until 10 a.m. on Thursday, March 19, 2026.

Summary: The House convened with prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance, approval of the prior journal, and introductions of the Doctor of the Day and student guests, including JAG students and Hila Ben High School visitors. Attendance was recorded at 49 present, 3 absent, and 8 excused. The chamber then moved into Committee of the Whole to consider HB 2153, the annual tax conformity bill, which was described by supporters as aligning Arizona tax law with recent federal changes and providing relief through no tax on tips and overtime, a 25% increase in the child tax credit, a new child care expense deduction, and expanded senior retirement-income deductions. Opponents argued the measure would primarily benefit wealthy individuals and corporations, leave out some seniors without retirement accounts, and reduce revenue needed for public services. HB 2153 drew extensive debate and multiple questions about its effects on seniors, small businesses, wages, child care, and the timing of tax filing forms already issued by the Department of Revenue. Supporters emphasized taxpayer certainty, conformity with federal forms, and economic growth; critics said the bill was fiscally irresponsible and unfair. The Committee of the Whole approved the bill 31-26, and the House later adopted the report and referred the bill to engrossing. The House then took up the Senate mirror measure, SB 1106, substituted for HB 2153, and held floor explanations of vote. After further debate along similar lines, the House passed SB 1106 by a vote of 31-27 with 2 not voting and transmitted it to the Senate. The remainder of the session included personal privilege remarks, committee schedule announcements, a long list of first-read bills and referrals, and finally a motion to adjourn until Tuesday, January 20, 2026.

Summary: The House convened with prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance, approval of the previous day’s journal, and a series of special guest introductions recognizing family members, interns, students, public servants, and community advocates. Committee reports and Senate messages followed, including Senate refusals to concur on a large number of amendments to Senate Bill 1421 and the appointment of a conference committee on House Bill 2818. The main floor action centered on the state budget, especially House Bill 2 (public education). The budget chair explained the conference report’s funding mix for K-12 schools, including $8.4 billion for public education, changes to the foundation formula, use of blind pension funds, and possible ARPA dollars later in the process. Members debated whether the report underfunded schools by $45 million or more, with opponents arguing the state was not fully funding the formula and supporters saying total school funding remained at record levels and that the issue was the source of funds rather than the total amount. A substitute motion to send HB 2 back to conference failed 62-89, and the conference report was then adopted 83-68; the bill was third read and passed 83-68. The House then took up House Bill 2003 on higher education, where the conference report largely restored the governor’s recommendation and directed the department to develop a new funding formula by the end of the year. Members discussed performance-based funding, scholarships, apprenticeships, and the need for a slower transition to any new model. The conference report passed 119-28, and the bill was third read and passed 109-32. House Bill 2004, covering Revenue and Transportation, included about $20 million for rural roads and other transportation funding; members discussed constitutional concerns, MoDOT projects, and a small local safety fix. The conference report passed 128-21, and the bill was third read and passed 127-27.

Summary: The House convened with prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance, approval of the prior journal, and a series of guest and doctor introductions. Members recognized visitors for a range of advocacy and community events, including Children’s Health Advocacy Day, Jewish Advocacy Day, housing affordability advocates, environmental advocates for Lobo Week, and several constituent and youth groups. The chamber also heard a personal privilege statement honoring Dr. Leah Hillier as Doctor of the Day and several remarks about community organizations and guests in the gallery. The House then received Senate messages and committee referrals, including multiple Senate bills and a concurrent resolution being assigned or withdrawn from committees. In Committee of the Whole, SB 1415 was recommended do pass, and SB 1430 was recommended do pass as amended after a Ways and Means amendment was adopted to remove a controversial provision so the measure would remain limited to tax code corrections. The Committee of the Whole report was adopted, and the bills were deferred for engrossing; SB 1193 was retained on the calendar. On third reading, the House passed HB 2680, relating to workers’ compensation, by a vote of 55-1 with four not voting, and passed SB 1029, relating to campaign contributions and expenses, by a vote of 57-0 with three not voting. Later, the chamber heard extended personal privilege remarks on federal issues, including the government shutdown, TSA and ICE at airports, immigration enforcement, and state budget negotiations. The House also recognized Lobo Week and received announcements about upcoming committee meetings and a CAP update, then adjourned until Tuesday, March 24, 2026.

Summary: The House opened with prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance, approval of the journal, and recognition of the Doctor of the Day, Dr. Kelly Arwari. Members then used points of personal privilege to introduce a range of guests and groups, including clergy, healthcare advocates, short-term rental representatives, firefighters, and a Guatemalan ambassador, and the chamber also heard a proclamation recognizing the bilateral relationship between Arizona and Guatemala. Additional announcements highlighted School Counselors Week and Black History Month, along with committee meeting notices and other procedural items. The House then moved into Committee of the Whole and considered several bills. HB 2029, relating to groundwater grant funds and water-use identification, was recommended do pass; HB 2045, addressing drive-by shootings, was recommended do pass; HB 2062, creating a Buffalo Soldiers territorial monument, was recommended do pass; HB 2126 was amended on the floor and then recommended do pass as amended after friendly amendments were described as tightening the language; and HB 2131 was recommended do pass. The Committee of the Whole report was adopted, and those measures were referred to engrossing. The chamber next took up HB 2792, an emergency measure concerning property tax exemptions for veterans, and passed it 57-0, with several members speaking in support and describing it as a cleanup measure tied to prior budget action and veteran tax relief. Members then debated HCR 2043, which calls on Congress to convene an Article V convention to propose a federal term-limits amendment; supporters argued term limits are needed and that the resolution is a way to pressure Congress, while opponents warned about the risks of a constitutional convention and questioned the process. The resolution passed 33-24 and was conveyed to the Senate. The House then recessed, returned briefly for additional committee and bill-routing announcements, and adjourned until 10 a.m. Thursday, February 5, 2026.

Summary: The House opened with prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance, approval of the prior journal, and introductions of the doctor of the day and numerous guests, including visitors for Lunar New Year, Arizona Statehood Day, school groups, local officials, and community leaders. A proclamation was read honoring Phoenix Ballet and National Ballet Day, and Representative Gress spoke in support of the recognition. The chamber also received committee and membership announcements, including temporary committee substitutions and several bills being re-referred or withdrawn to other committees. On third reading, HB 2190, which would have added Article 5 to Title 32 relating to the Arizona Regulatory Board of Physician Assistants, failed after debate over whether it improperly authorized rulemaking; it was defeated 20-38 with two not voting. The House then took up HB 2206, relating to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program administration, and HB 2396, another SNAP-related bill focused on restricting certain purchases. Members debated the bills at length, with opponents arguing they would burden low-income families, worsen food access in desert areas, and limit personal choice, while supporters said the state should encourage healthier purchases and that existing public benefit programs already include restrictions. HB 2396 passed 34-25 with one not voting and was sent to the Senate. After announcements, including committee meetings, an African-American Legislative Day program, and a birthday acknowledgment for the Majority Leader, the House briefly recessed and then reconvened. Additional desk business was handled, including a first reading of HB 2999, a municipal approval district technical correction bill, and the referral of first-read measures for printing. The House then adjourned until Tuesday, February 17, 2026.
