This bill would let Arizona join a new federal tax credit program, allowing individuals to receive tax credits for donating to certified nonprofits that provide K-12 scholarships. The Arizona Department of Revenue would certify eligible nonprofits and report them annually to the U.S. Treasury. Beginning in 2027, these nonprofits could use donations to award scholarships for qualified education expenses, such as private school tuition and supplies. While not a direct voucher program, it operates similarly by giving families more ways to use scholarship funds for private education and expanding school choice in Arizona.

Arizona

This bill would require all employees of Arizona’s Medicaid agency, the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS), to work in person at an office, banning remote work. If passed, AHCCCS staff would no longer be allowed to work from home or any location outside the agency’s physical offices. This would mean more in-person service and oversight, but less flexibility for employees, added commute time and costs, and potentially more spending on office space.

Arizona

This bill would ban the State of Arizona from requiring banks or financial institutions to use a social credit score—including social or environmental values—when making lending decisions. While Arizona does not currently have such a requirement, this bill would ensure the state cannot mandate it in the future. The goal is to keep loan decisions based solely on financial qualifications, rather than government-imposed social or environmental ratings, while still allowing banks to set their own standards.

Arizona

This bill standardizes the expiration dates for Virginia’s limited-duration driver’s licenses, driver privilege cards, permits, and ID privilege cards. REAL ID credentials for individuals temporarily in the U.S. will only be valid for the period they are authorized to stay and cannot be issued if that authorization ends within 30 days. Driver privilege cards and permits will have two-year terms, and ID privilege cards will follow the same expiration as regular state IDs. The $50 fee for privilege cards remains, but is waived for homeless youth. The bill also protects privacy and does not require replacing current, unexpired cards, aiming to simplify rules and improve safety.

Virginia

This bill aims to better protect renters by allowing local governments—like cities and counties—to take legal action against landlords who fail to keep rental properties safe and livable. If a serious problem exists—such as a fire hazard, health or safety threat, rodent infestation, or lack of heat, water, electricity, or sewage—the local government can step in after notifying the landlord. If the landlord doesn’t fix the issue in a reasonable time, the locality can go to court to require repairs and seek financial compensation for affected tenants. This bill strengthens enforcement of housing standards and provides more support for renters.

Virginia

This bill would require Virginia public schools to try at least one proven restorative practice—such as mediation, peer circles, or community service—before suspending or expelling a student from elementary or secondary schools. These restorative methods are intended to help students understand and repair the harm caused by their actions, keep them engaged in school, and reduce exclusionary discipline. Immediate removal would still be allowed for serious cases, like those involving weapons, severe injury, or repeated major offenses. The bill also mandates statewide tracking, annual reporting, and training support to help schools implement these practices effectively.

Virginia

This bill creates a pilot program for Florida’s Department of Financial Services to accept certain stablecoins—digital currencies fully backed by real assets and with no extra fees—for government payments like licensing fees. Participation is optional, and refunds can also be issued in stablecoins if requested. The state may hold or issue its own stablecoin, with any profits benefiting taxpayers. The department will audit issuers, can convert stablecoins to dollars, and must report yearly on costs and security. Central bank digital currencies are excluded, and no one is required to use stablecoins or change existing payment methods.

Florida

This bill updates Florida’s public sector labor laws and the role of the Public Employees Relations Commission. Most unions (except police, fire, and similar units) must now win yearly re-approval from a majority of all workers in their unit. Payroll dues deductions are banned for most unions, and dues must stop within 30 days if a member quits. The bill streamlines appeals and hearings, requires independent union audits, and improves transparency of union finances. Employers must give all sides equal access to facilities during union elections, fines for illegal strikes are increased, and on-the-clock union work is limited unless agreed.

Florida

This bill increases local budget transparency and limits spending by requiring counties and cities to post tentative budgets online 14 days before public hearings and keep final budgets online for five years with searchable data, downloadable charts, employee salaries, and travel costs. A 10% budget-cutting exercise must be shown before adoption. Budget changes need longer notice and online posting. The bill bans funding or contracting for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, requires annual compliance certification, allows hotline complaints, and imposes daily fines for violations.

Florida

This bill requires Florida agencies managing state-owned land to evaluate whether parts of those lands could be leased to private businesses for cattle grazing when developing or updating land management plans. If areas are found suitable, the plans must identify them and allow for grazing leases; if none are suitable, the agency must explain why in the plan. The bill ensures these decisions are transparent to the public and reviewed by relevant state councils to balance land use, conservation, and other public interests. These requirements apply to plans created or updated on or after July 1, 2026.

Florida

This bill updates Florida’s rules for condo and homeowners’ associations (HOAs). Instead of requiring mediation first, conflicts between owners and associations would now go to state arbitration or a new Community Association Court. This court could enforce owner rights, fine or remove board members, appoint receivers, or dissolve associations if needed. HOAs must add a standard statement to their rules or let members vote on any rule changes. To dissolve an HOA, if 20% of homeowners petition, a vote must be held and at least two-thirds must agree; the court then reviews the process, ensures fair payouts after debts, and can penalize boards that try to block dissolution.

Florida

This bill would limit when someone can sue a gun manufacturer in Florida for product liability. It states that firearm makers cannot be sued just because their guns do not have certain safety features—like magazine disconnects, loaded chamber indicators, special locks for authorized users, or manual safeties—unless those features are required by federal law. However, if a gun is actually defective or doesn’t work as promised, manufacturers could still be held responsible. The bill would take effect immediately if passed.

Florida

This bill requires developers of frontier AI systems to publicly share detailed public safety and child protection plans explaining how they will identify and address major risks, before releasing new models. Developers must regularly publish summaries of their risk assessments and disclose risk management steps, including third-party evaluations. The bill prohibits false or misleading statements about AI risks, mandates prompt reporting of safety incidents to a new Office of Artificial Intelligence Policy, and provides whistleblower protections for employees who report safety concerns. Penalties are established for companies that violate these requirements.

Utah

This bill would prohibit Utah state agencies from setting pollution or waste regulations that are stricter than federal requirements. If no federal standard exists for a specific issue, any new state rule must be based on the best available science and clearly show a direct link between exposure and actual harm to human health. Exceptions include cases where stricter rules are federally mandated, site-specific needs, or emergencies. In practice, this bill limits Utah’s ability to adopt stronger environmental or waste protections than those established at the federal level.

Utah

This bill changes how major civil lawsuits against the State of Utah or its officials are handled. In any case challenging the constitutionality of a Utah law, the Attorney General is guaranteed the right to participate. When a state agency or official is sued, the Attorney General, Governor, or Legislature can require the case to be decided by a randomly selected panel of three district court judges from different regions, instead of a single judge. Usual venue rules do not apply, and any decisions by these panels are appealed directly to the Utah Supreme Court, skipping the regular appeals court.

Utah

This bill tightens Utah’s rules for unlicensed driving by requiring police to impound vehicles when drivers lack a license, permit, or driving privilege card and can’t be verified, with some exceptions. Officers may use fingerprinting to ID drivers, and agencies must have compatible equipment by 2028. Impound and testing fees rise to $600 and $60, repeat offenses become a class B misdemeanor, and owners who let unlicensed people drive face a $500 minimum fine. The bill also updates license checks, suspension rules, and requires fingerprinting technology to link with police and court databases.

Utah

This bill updates Utah’s election laws by changing the rules around voter registration privacy. After April 6, 2026, voter records that were previously private will become public unless voters apply for and are approved as at-risk. Election officials must notify affected voters so they can request continued privacy. The bill also lets voters choose whether to share their contact information with political parties, adds new requirements for keeping voter rolls accurate, increases penalties for misuse of voter data, requires warnings on petitions about potential disclosure of private information, and shifts responsibility for preparing voter materials on constitutional amendments to legislative staff.

Utah

This bill would allow all Virginia public employees to unionize and bargain statewide, repealing the current ban. It creates a Public Employee Relations Board to run union elections, resolve disputes, and enforce bargaining rules. Employers must bargain in good faith, provide employee contact information, allow union access, and process union dues. Strikes by public employees remain illegal, and negotiation deadlocks go to binding arbitration. The bill also establishes a new Home Care Authority to serve as the employer for Medicaid home care workers, fund their training, and support workforce stability, while clients retain control over hiring decisions.

Virginia

This bill requires the Department of the Interior and the Department of Agriculture to identify and address delays in permitting broadband and wireless projects on public lands and national forests. The agencies must pinpoint barriers, suggest rule changes to streamline reviews, and develop strategies to prioritize and expedite applications. Within a year, they must report their findings and staffing plans to Congress, with the goal of speeding up broadband and cell coverage expansion in rural and underserved areas to support economic growth, education, telehealth, and public safety.

Federal

This bill aims to make building homes faster and more affordable nationwide. It encourages cities and states to relax zoning rules, allow more housing options like accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and taller buildings, and streamline project reviews. Grants support planning and pre-approved designs, while updates to building codes and higher Federal Housing Administration (FHA) multifamily loan limits help modernize housing. The bill also boosts support for manufactured homes, small-dollar loans, and rural housing. Renters benefit from an eviction helpline, quicker inspections, and counseling. Lastly, the bill strengthens oversight and provides support for community banks to help increase the affordable housing supply.

Federal

This bill would require all public colleges and universities receiving federal funding to offer in-state tuition rates to U.S. nationals from Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Residents of these territories could attend any public college in the U.S. at the same tuition rate as state residents. Schools must follow this rule to keep receiving federal student aid funds. The bill amends the Higher Education Act of 1965 to make this a requirement, aiming to expand affordable college access for territorial students.

Federal

Allows cities, counties, school, fire, and port districts to use ranked choice voting (RCV). In single-seat races, a non-RCV primary narrows the field to five; in multi-seat RCV, no primary. Ballots let voters rank at least five choices. The state sets uniform counting rules and requires strong voter education, including multilingual and accessible materials. Local jurisdictions pay RCV costs. Aims to boost turnout, reduce spoilers, and broaden representation. Effective only if funded.

Washington

This bill would ban Members of Congress, their spouses, and dependent children from buying new individual stocks while in office, aiming to prevent conflicts of interest and increase public trust. They would not be required to sell any stock they already own, but they would be obligated to publicly announce any plans to sell stocks 7-14 days in advance. They could still invest in mutual funds, small businesses, or use blind trusts. Breaking these rules would result in a fine of at least $2,000 or 10% of the transaction—whichever is greater—and the violator would forfeit any profits. Government or campaign funds couldn’t be used to pay fines.

Federal

This bill would ban Members of Congress, their spouses, and dependent children from owning or trading individual stocks or similar financial products while in office, aiming to reduce conflicts of interest and build public trust. Current members would have 180 days to sell these investments, and new members, or those who acquire stocks while in office, would have 90 days to divest. Investments in diversified mutual funds and government bonds are still allowed. There are limited exceptions for certain work situations and regulated family trusts. Violations would result in a 10% penalty and forfeiture of profits, with all penalties posted online for transparency.

Federal

This bill sets new rules for large-scale data centers in Florida. Local governments keep zoning control and must address infrastructure and community impacts. Governments are banned from signing non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) that hide new data center sites from the public; violators can be fined. Data centers using over 100,000 gallons of water daily must submit conservation plans and use reclaimed water when possible. Large power users (50+ megawatts) must pay the full cost of their utilities, and utilities may cut power in emergencies. Utilities are also prohibited from serving data centers connected to certain foreign governments, and big projects must have public hearings.

Florida

This bill requires Arizona to re-examine certain water supply applications submitted for the Phoenix area between 2021 and 2023. These applications must be approved if older groundwater models show enough available water, even if newer, stricter models would have denied them. Water providers must also offer 25% of their excess groundwater each year as water credits that a regional water district can purchase, which could lower some local water fees. Any certificates granted through this process will be treated as if they were approved in 2023. The program starts immediately and will end in 2028.

Arizona

This bill limits fines from photo radar tickets (for speeding or red light violations) to $75 and ensures these tickets won’t add points to your license, suspend or revoke your driving privileges, or be reported to the motor vehicle department. Insurance companies cannot raise your rates, cancel, or refuse to renew your policy because of these tickets. Only law enforcement, not private companies, can review camera evidence and decide if a ticket should be issued. If you get a violation notice in the mail, you do not have to identify the driver or respond, though ignoring it could result in official legal papers and added fees.

Arizona

This bill is designed to make it easier and faster for the Arizona Legislature to enforce subpoenas during investigations. Under this bill, if someone receives a subpoena from the Legislature, knows about it, and has the ability to comply but chooses not to, a legislative committee or the President of the Senate/Speaker of the House can—after giving the person notice and a chance to explain—declare them in contempt without needing a vote from the entire chamber. Once someone is found in contempt, the sergeant-at-arms can arrest them if there is a signed order or resolution.

Arizona

This bill would create a new rule in Arizona that makes conversations with artificial intelligence (AI) confidential in the same way as private talks with licensed professionals like lawyers, doctors, or therapists. If you use an AI system to ask for advice—on legal, medical, mental health, or other sensitive topics—your discussions would be protected and generally could not be used as evidence in court cases, police investigations, or lawsuits. This means companies running AI systems would be required to keep these conversations private, much like professionals do with their clients.

Arizona

This bill would update Utah’s petition process by gradually requiring more signatures to be collected electronically using secure devices that scan official IDs. From 2028, at least 10% of petition signatures must be electronic, rising to 50% by 2030, and by 2032 all signatures must be collected electronically—ending manual collection. The lieutenant governor may suspend these requirements if the electronic system is not functioning properly. The bill also sets security standards for these devices and requires annual reports on the system’s performance through 2031. No new funding is included, and the bill would take effect May 6, 2026.
