Republican lawmakers in the Arizona Freedom Caucus say they're ready to fight Gov. Hobbs' anti-discrimination executive order along with her 'radical woke agenda.'
By Howard Fischer Capitol Media Services PHOENIX — Calling her actions illegal, some 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 object of the planned lawsuit is an order Hobbs issued on her first full day in office directing state agencies under her control to eliminate all barriers that"artificially restrict" employment actions that are"not directly related to the performance of the job.
"The Republican legislature and the Arizona Freedom Caucus will oppose Katie Hobbs' woke agenda," he said."You can bet your ass that will happen." "It does not matter your race, it does not matter your income, it does not matter your gender, your ethnicity, your national origin," he said.
