Arizona Republicans walk out on KatieHobbs's first State of the State address
Several of the GOP lawmakers turned their backs on the new governor and walked out as she outlined her priorities, according to a report.Democratic lawmakers applauded Hobbs when she preached that she intended to increase public education funding and address Arizona's water crisis.
"As was foreseeable, Katie Hobbs utilized the time-honored State of the State Address to once again promote her radical, woke policy initiatives, rather than address the profoundly serious concerns that Arizonans have regarding the political and fiscal realities of daily life," a statement from the Arizona Freedom Caucus read.
"On the heels of an election riddled with violations of Arizona law and that once again left Arizonans disenfranchised and lacking confidence in our state's local governments," it read.
