Budget Allows Arizona to Fully Implement Trump's Tax Cuts
The $18.3 billion plan avoids tax return refilings and orders 2.5% spending cuts for most agencies.
- Governor Katie Hobbs and the State Legislature reached an $18.3 billion budget deal in PHOENIX, Arizona, adopting federal tax cuts put in place by President Donald Trump.
- Adopting these cuts means citizens will not need to refile their taxes, while all state agencies except public safety must reduce spending by 2.5%.
- With Republicans controlling the State Legislature and Hobbs serving as a Democrat, both sides made concessions to secure the agreement before the June 30th deadline.
- The legislation mandates a three-year moratorium on tax breaks for data centers, while the Empowerment Scholarship Account remains unchanged without any modifications.
- Legislators may vote on the bill as early as Thursday, though two groups are working to place competing propositions on the ballot that could impact school funding programs.
