Ducey

The following is the opinion and analysis of the writer:

OPINION: "Many of these struck-down provisions were in measures considered earlier in the session, but were so unpopular there were insufficient votes to approve them," writes Adelita Grijalva, who serves on both TUSD's and Pima County's boards. 

OPINION: "Gov. Doug Ducey and Arizona's GOP legislators can no longer point fingers when discussing drought. It's time they look in the mirror," writes state Rep. Andrés Cano (D-Tucson).

OPINION: "While TUSD serves as an example of  moral fortitude, clear and quick messaging, and efficient mobilization by administrators, my district, Catalina Foothills Unified, exhibits none of these virtues," writes Tucson mom Yvonne So. 

OPINION: "The UA, faculty and administration as a whole need the discretionary ability to employ proven tools and measures, to decide the best mode to safely operate this vital institution," writes Dr. Marvin J. Slepian and other UA professors.

OPINION: Republicans in the Arizona Legislature are "looking for short-term headlines as tax cutters but will have skipped town before this scheme collapses as it did in Kansas just a few years ago," writes state Rep. Andrés Cano.

OPINION: "The Healthy Forest Initiative aims to increase preventative practices in areas most impacted by fires, saving lives, property and land in the process," writes Tucson-raised Alexander Diaz.
