Children’s Action Alliance and AZCenter for Economic Progress announce 2023 legislative priorities
This year brings great opportunity for Arizona with a new Governor and legislature to address many of our state’s biggest challenges and create the conditions which will lead to a more vibrant economy and a place where all children and families can thrive. Over the next two weeks, Arizona will inaugurate our statewide elected leaders, the new legislature will begin its session, and Governor Hobbs will deliver her first state-of-the-state address and share her state budget proposal.
With so many big moments upon us, we want to share our 2023 legislative priorities – priorities that we hope many of our newly elected officials will get behind.

Children’s Action Alliance — Building an Arizona where children thrive, starts with you
The 2022 legislative session proved challenging, and while we received a sometimes-hostile reception toward the policy solutions we seek, we never gave up. In fact, adversity only seems to make us stronger.
When the 2023 legislative session begins (this) month, CAA will continue our work to find a permanent fix to an unnecessary school spending limit that is based on what it cost to educate students in 1980 and which, if not permanently fixed, will keep our schools in the basement of funding compared to the rest of the nation.
