legislative subpoena; perjury; refusal; contempt

This bill amends Arizona law to clarify procedures for legislative subpoenas and related penalties. It requires witnesses summoned by the Arizona legislature to provide sworn testimony under penalty of perjury, while prohibiting the use of such testimony in criminal cases against the witness - except for perjury, false swearing, or related offenses. The bill also specifies that refusing a subpoena can lead to contempt charges, handled either through a committee hearing (after notice) or a full legislative resolution, with enforcement via arrest by law enforcement. It directly affects individuals subpoenaed by Arizona legislative committees or chambers.
