During her first State of the State address, Hobbs made education a priority and outlined her goals for the year.Gov. Katie Hobbs vetoed several bills Friday, including one that would have banned municipalities or state agencies from using speed or red-light cameras.

"Hobbs' veto fails Arizonans," Rogers wrote."She will ultimately answer to our fleeced drivers who don’t support this years-long cash grab cloaked in the name of 'traffic enforcement.'"Rogers has tried unsuccessfully to get rid of photo radar for the past three years. "Removing this valuable tool grants license to reckless behavior," which endangers others, the Scottsdale letter states.

Banned the state and municipalities from being a member of a multistate"voter registration list maintenance organization." This bill would have prevented the state from working with the Election Registration Information Center , Hobbs wrote, calling it an"essential tool for ensuring accurate registration rolls in Arizona" and elsewhere.

Sen. John Kavanagh, R-Fountain Hills, who sponsored two of the bills, said he was disappointed in the governor's actions.
