(The Center Square) - Arizonans will have a chance to put a stop to their taxpayer money being spent on diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

On Nov. 3, Arizona residents will vote on Proposition 142, which would stop state money from funding DEI-related offices and programs.

The proposition would prevent taxpayers from being forced to support race-based policies as a condition for college admission or graduation, hiring or contracting.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

On 'Nextdoor' I read (and I deleted the names here for privacy):

"I voted "No" on ALL constitutional amendments"!!!

"Thomas did you even read the propositions to understand that a no vote meant you were for them. God help us".

When the left is in charge of the wording of propositions in an election, they purposely say them in a way that is confusing so that people vote the opposite of what they really want. If Dems had any integrity at all, they would win very few elections.

The idea that the Arizona Apparatchiks will allow such a vote to succeed is doubtful. Should hell freeze over, and such a thing does pass, Judges afflicted with Boasberger’s Syndrome will knock it down.

And if no Judge knocks it down, the Apparatchiks will simply ignore it.

Rules, regulations, laws and statutes are “others.”

The AZ Gov election is probably the most important in a long time.
Hobbs has been vetoing (531 times) anything designed to change AZ.

This one passed and was kept so why discourage people from voting.

“In 2010, Arizonans passed Proposition 107, which prevented affirmative action from being considered in public employment or public education. Nearly 60% of Arizonans voted for the proposition”.

Arizonans vote down DEI, and vote Andy Biggs for Governor!

Send Hobbs back to “social work”!
