I will say that I don't agree with it, but in discussions about the ramifications of all of these resolutions, which are nonbinding and which I call confetti resolutions because they do not do anything except send very difficult messages to everybody, I think that ought to be made in order and that ought to be a choice.

It`s Arizona, what can I say. You can`t spell Arizona without AZ. From the night of the election, the stop the steal chant began. And in our state, even though there has been no evidence of any wrongdoing.
