Summary: The Senate was called to order, a call of the Senate was enforced, and then further proceedings under the roll call were dispensed with so the sergeant at arms could bring in absent members. Reverend Susie Hayward of Creekside United Church of Christ delivered the prayer, emphasizing mercy, justice, humility, and support for vulnerable people, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance. The secretary then took the roll and confirmed a quorum was present. The chamber moved through routine business. Executive and official communications listed on the agenda were received with no action required. Senator Johnson moved to adopt the committee report printed in the agenda, and the motion prevailed. The Senate also gave first reading to the Senate files listed on the introduction calendar and adopted the authors’ motions as one motion. Senators Murphy and Johnson introduced Senate Resolution No. 4, which sets the mileage traveled by members of the Senate to and from the Capitol. Senator Johnson explained that members should review the mileage information on their desks and report any corrections to the front desk, and said the resolution would be laid on the table and brought back the following week. The motion to lay the resolution on the table prevailed. No announcements of Senate interest were made. Senator Johnson then moved to adjourn until Monday, January 27th at 11:00 a.m., and the motion prevailed. The Senate adjourned.

Summary: The House considered Senate amendments to House File 3629, a grants-management and anti-fraud bill. Representative Bonner explained that the bill clarifies definitions so grants can be terminated for individuals and related parties convicted of fraud, narrows agency exception authority, strengthens whistleblower privacy protections, and allows agencies to permanently withhold payments when there is a credible allegation of fraud. It also incorporates provisions from another Senate bill and adds annual program integrity reporting from DHS and DCYF with a five-year look-back. Representative Cleghorn and Representative Nash spoke in support, emphasizing anti-fraud protections and the bill’s bipartisan support in the Senate. The House concurred in the Senate amendments and then passed the bill on third reading. A roll call vote followed, and House File 3629 was repassed as amended by the Senate by a vote of 134 yeas and 0 nays, with the title agreed to. The chamber then received first readings for House Files 5161 and 5162. Later, members offered remarks thanking House staff, including the Sergeant at Arms Office, nonpartisan research and fiscal staff, the Revisor’s Office, the Chief Clerk’s Office, and front desk staff. The session then shifted to parliamentary inquiries about Senate File 3699, a comprehensive response package related to Operation Metro Surge and gun violence prevention, with the Speaker stating the bills were still under review. After further questioning and a point of order, Representative Niska moved a recess to the call of the Speaker, and the House recessed.

Summary: The Senate convened with prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance, approved the prior journal, and heard several guest introductions, including Arizona agricultural producers and suppliers and sixth graders from James W. Rice Elementary School. The chamber then moved through a lengthy calendar of first- and second-reading bill references and committee reports, with no substantive debate on those items in the transcript. The main floor action centered on Senate Resolution 1036, which criticized Attorney General Chris Mays for public comments about the use of force and law enforcement, and called on her to retract the statements, support law enforcement, issue corrective guidance, and resign. The Senate first voted to suspend rules and place the resolution into Committee of the Whole, then debated a motion to read the resolution by number and title only, and later considered a floor amendment adding findings about law enforcement organizations’ criticism and alleged use of state resources to target ICE officers. Supporters argued the Attorney General’s remarks were dangerous, misleading, and politically motivated; opponents said the resolution distorted her comments, was a partisan stunt, and skipped normal committee review. After extensive debate, the Committee of the Whole recommended the resolution do pass, and the Senate adopted SR 1036 on third reading by a vote of 17 ayes to 13 nays. Following passage of SR 1036, members continued to offer personal privilege remarks, including an introduction of visitors connected to civics education. The Senate then recessed and adjourned until Monday, February 2, 2026.
