PHOENIX — Calling her actions illegal, some Arizona Republican lawmakers said Monday they will go to court to overturn the new governor’s executive order expanding anti-discrimination protections for state employees and contractors.
“The people of Arizona did not elect Katie Hobbs to rule by executive fiat,’’ said Sen. Jake Hoffman, R-Queen Creek.
Instead, the head of the Arizona Freedom Caucus said the role of the governor is solely to implement the laws approved by the House and Senate, not to unilaterally enact her “radical woke agenda.’’
