governor nominations; agency position; eligibility

HB 2630 modifies Arizona's process for appointing state agency officials nominated by the governor. It requires written nominations including the nominee's residence, mandates fingerprint-based criminal background checks, and limits nominees to one year in office without senate confirmation. The bill also prohibits nominees rejected by the senate from being considered for the same agency position. This directly affects governors, state agency nominees, and the legislature during confirmation votes. The changes clarify timing rules for nominations during legislative sessions and establish new eligibility requirements for appointees.
