HB 2867: licenses; not proof of citizenship

HB 2867 clarifies that Arizona driver's licenses are not proof of citizenship. The bill amends Arizona Revised Statutes to adjust definitions and prohibitions related to driver's license issuance, ensuring citizenship status is not required for obtaining a license. It prevents driver's licenses from being treated as evidence of citizenship in any context. This change directly affects all Arizona residents applying for or renewing a driver's license.

HB 2559: behavioral health services; insurance coverage

HB 2559 requires Arizona health insurance plans (including hospital service corporations, health care organizations, and disability insurers) to cover behavioral health services - such as mental health and substance use disorder treatment - starting January 1, 2027. The bill mandates insurers to provide out-of-network coverage with cost protections if in-network providers aren’t available within specific timeframes: 30 days for routine care, 7 days for residential care, and 24 hours for emergencies. Patients cannot pay more than their in-network copay, coinsurance, or deductible for these services, and insurers must document out-of-network payments for state review. This directly affects millions of Arizonans with insurance coverage for behavioral health needs.

HB 2558: insurance; cancer; chemotherapy; scalp cooling

HB 2558 requires Arizona health insurers to cover scalp cooling systems for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, starting January 1, 2027. The bill mandates that hospital service corporations, health care services organizations, disability insurers, and group disability insurers must provide coverage for these systems when used alongside cancer-related chemotherapy treatment. A "scalp cooling system" is defined as a medical device designed to prevent or reduce hair loss during chemo, intended for repeated use and primarily for medical purposes. This policy directly affects cancer patients receiving chemotherapy in Arizona and insurers offering related coverage. The law creates a new coverage requirement without altering existing treatment standards.

HB 2522: contraception; rights; limits

HB 2522, the "Arizona Right to Contraception Act," establishes a legal right for Arizonans to access contraceptives and contraception-related information, and for healthcare providers to offer these services. It prohibits state or local restrictions that single out contraceptive services, impede access, or interfere with a provider's ability to deliver care. The bill explicitly clarifies it does not override existing requirements for voluntary, informed consent in sterilization procedures. This law directly affects individuals seeking reproductive healthcare and healthcare providers who offer contraceptive services across Arizona.

HB 2357: class one property; assessment ratio

HB 2357 gradually reduces the property tax assessment ratio for Arizona's "class one property" (primarily primary residences) over time. It lowers the percentage of a home's full cash value used to calculate property taxes, starting at 25% through 2005 and decreasing step-by-step to 15.2% by 2027. The bill directly affects residential property owners by reducing their taxable value year-by-year as specified in the amended statute. This change is a concrete policy adjustment to property tax calculations, not an immediate tax cut.

HB 2711: housing trust fund; unclaimed property

HB 2711 modifies how Arizona allocates unclaimed property funds, such as abandoned bank accounts and stocks, that would otherwise go to the state general fund. It directs 55% of these funds to the housing trust fund, with 40% of that portion (22% of total funds) specifically reserved for rural housing development. The bill also specifies that $2 million goes to a trust fund for housing the seriously mentally ill, $2.5 million to the general housing trust fund, and $24.5 million to the department of revenue's administrative fund. This policy change affects state fund distribution without directly altering individual rights or services.

HB 2295: minimum wage increase

HB 2295 raises Arizona's minimum wage to $18 per hour by January 1, 2027, with scheduled increases from $10 in 2017 up to $12 in 2020. After 2020, the wage will automatically adjust annually based on the Consumer Price Index (measuring cost-of-living changes) to maintain its value. The bill also allows employers to pay tipped workers a base wage up to $3 less per hour, provided total tips plus wages meet the minimum wage requirement. This applies to most hourly workers in Arizona covered by state minimum wage law, including those in restaurants and service industries. The bill requires a three-fourths legislative vote to take effect.

HB 2571: prohibited weapons; machine guns

HB 2571 allows individuals previously barred from possessing firearms (due to mental health findings or federal restrictions like 18 U.S.C. §922(d)(4)) to petition Arizona courts to restore their gun rights. To qualify, petitioners must provide psychological evidence, prove they pose no danger to public safety, and demonstrate their circumstances have changed. If approved, courts update state and national databases (including the FBI’s background check system) to remove the restriction. This directly affects people classified as "prohibited possessors" under Arizona Revised Statutes §13-3101(A)(7)(a) or federal law, enabling them to legally own firearms again after a court review. The bill does not change gun ownership rules but creates a legal process for restoring rights.

HB 2301: pricing; emergency; enforcement; attorney general.

HB 2301 prohibits businesses from charging more than 10% above pre-emergency prices for essential goods (like food, water, medical supplies, and rent) during a declared state of emergency. It classifies violations as felonies: selling over $500 worth of such goods in 24 hours during an emergency is a class 5 felony, while under $500 is a class 6 felony. The Arizona Attorney General is authorized to investigate and enforce these rules under existing consumer protection laws. This bill directly affects businesses selling essential commodities during emergencies, not the general public.

HB 2462: covered contracts; governmental unit; payroll

HB 2462 requires Arizona state governmental units to mandate that contractors and subcontractors on specific "covered contracts" submit certified payroll records. These records must accurately show hours worked, job classifications, wages paid, and include a signed compliance statement. The bill also ensures worker retention during contract transitions by requiring successor contractors to offer jobs to qualified previous employees and prohibiting unjustified terminations or hour cuts during the transition period. It explicitly states the bill does not create new wage requirements beyond existing law and excludes commodity contracts, fixed-delivery contracts, and contracts below a dollar threshold.

HB 2626: child care workforce; scholarship program

HB 2626 creates a state-funded scholarship program for child care workers in Arizona earning below 85% of the state median income. It directly affects teachers, educators, and support staff at department-contracted child care providers, preschools, kindergartens, and K-12 schools. The program provides $200 million in state funding for fiscal year 2026-2027, with scholarship money paid directly to child care providers (not individual workers) on a first-come, first-served basis. This aims to support workforce retention by covering costs for eligible providers.

HB 2529: prisoners; medical treatment; pregnancy; requirements

HB 2529 requires Arizona prisons to provide free medical care to pregnant inmates, exempting them from fees for medical visits, prescriptions, and medical devices under Section 1(I)(5) of the bill. This directly affects pregnant individuals incarcerated in Arizona state facilities, ensuring they cannot be denied treatment or charged for care related to pregnancy. The bill also mandates that prisons honor a prisoner’s refusal of non-life-threatening treatment after documenting consequences (Section 31-202), while prohibiting denial of care due to inability to pay (Section 1(J)). These provisions specifically address pregnancy-related healthcare access and financial barriers within correctional medical services.
