All Comments:
Phyllis Lester, Self: We have to curb the social media interference.; John Matthews, Self: It's more than political
beliefs it's also medical beliefs as well.; Shirley Dye, Self: Good idea, do not know if it will fly due to Social Media
Cos going way beyond AZ state boundarfes. But it is good not to be able to censor or take down candidates.; Jere

Self: Brings some ethics and truth to media.; Philip Hubacek, Self: Censorship must be stopped. Media should not

would not support this.; Roger Gorres, Self: This bill restores the 1st amendment for social media.; Shannon
Severson, Self: Vote Yes. People shouldn't be discriminated against in the digital town square for their views and
thoughis.; Stephen Harris, Self: The extreme misbehavior of social media platforms has created a pressing need for
this bill. If enacted, it will most likely face a constitutional challenge. From a non-lawyer citizen’s point of view,
HB1106 seems well poised to survive the challenge; Valerie Giramberk, Self: Social media platforms are open to
the public in general and therefore, everyone should have a right to access and posts on these platforms. These
companies should not be allowed to discriminate based on political beliefs.; Barry Burkhardt, Self: This should be
done at the National level but the State needs to take the lead and set the examplel!!; Nikki Colletti, Self: The
extreme misbehavior of social media platforms has created a pressing need for this bill; Bridget Nelke, Self: this bill
presents a good format for defining parameters and consequences for non compliance thank you; Gary Saxhaug,
Self: Helps prevent people from being kicked off social media for their political beliefs. I'm a PC/SC.; Charles Bell,
Self: The extreme misbehavior of social media platforms has created a pressing need for this bill.; Joseph Myers,
Self: Provides media outlets from wrongful treatment of candidates running for office. This is an inappropriate use

elected PC in Pima County LD18 precinct 262; Carrie Heikkala, Self: It's about timel; Joe Fiumara, Self: We need
more freedom of speech in this country and less social media banning.; Espe Frecks, Self: Helps prevent people

/ licked off social media for their political beliefs which violates the ist Amendment; Harold DarcAngelo, Self: LD15
PC; Mary Evelyn Simpson, Self: YavGOP PC. A much needed bill in the current social climate; Ken Zebal, Self: This is
ali about enforcing the first amendment you must support this; Gail Kamaras, Self: This is a conspiracy theory in
search of a problem.; Penny Boone, Self: This bill is inspired by an absurd conspiracy theory that right-wing
extremists are being persecuted by Big Tech. | oppose.; Susan Morris, Self: Based on irrational belief in
conspiracies.; Anne Leota Hart, Self: This is a ridiculous bill based completely ona conspiracy theory that
extremists like the Senator from LD 7 are being persecuted by Big Tech. Please stop wasting the people of Arizona's
time. Address important and real issues.; Kathryn Kaczmarek, Self: Dangerous bill if passed. | do not support
ordering social media to follow requirements listed in this bill.; Karen Syversen, Self: This bill is inspired by a
conspiracy theory that right-wingers are persecuted by Big Tech. This was proved wrong by the Twitter hearings.;
Saily Harvey, Self: This is a non-existent issue and a waste of time; Andrew Costanzo, Self: No censorship.; Gary
Zimmerman, Self: We must get social media out of the business of aiding and abetting election fraud and selective
partisan censorship.; Elizabeth Putnam-Hidalgo, Self: Stop the conspiracy/victim theories. Although often we might
WANT such tech settings, we don't actually have them.; Virginia Dotson, Self: Spreading lies to many thousands of
people constitutes a public nuisance. We must keep the protections we have, even though they are inadequate
to the scale of the problem.; William Bodine, Self: Follow the constitution and give freedom of speech.; David
Crowley, Self: Guaranteeing every citizens right to participate in Free Speech.; Sue Thorne, Self: Extreme right wing
candidates who spout conspiracy theories about vaccines that have prevented millions of deaths to those smart
enough to get them, outright lies about fair elections, books, teachers teaching history should be monitored &
curtailed; Kristine Rodriguez, Self: clearly a free speech issue. Yes!; Eric Lovelis, Self: As a PC in LD2, | am 100% in
favor of this bill and the 1st Amendment! Without free speech, there will be no discussion, and no chance to work
out differences. We need to be respectful even if we disagree. Vote Yes; Roy Scott Lassell, Self: | support. We need
to hear all non violent views. Open debate is a foundation of America.; Janet Ackerman, Self: | support. This bill
strengthens my 1st Amendment right to political speech.; Mary Ann Graffagnino, Self: Ridiculous}; Carol Stines,
Self: Social media is in cahoots with gov't agencies. We must not limit free speech.; Mary Jamsa, Self: Helps
prevent people from being shut down on social media because of their political beliefs.; Michael Mote, Self: 1am
stronly in favor of this bill which helps prevent people from being kicked off or silenced on social media for their
political beliefs. Big tech censorship is a huge problem in the country and help prevent that.; George Momper, Self:
Silencing opinions contrary to the government's narrative is a tool of dictators. Who is the supreme judge of
“disinformation” anyway. AZ used to be proud of it’s freedom.; Jay Ts, Self: Corporations are legal entities that
would not exist unless We the People created laws that allow them to exist. Therefore, corporations need to be
required to support ALL of our rights, just as the government is.; Raymond Darragh, Self: We need this bill to help
protect freedom of speech; Lee Chadbourn, Self: Prevent people from being kicked off social media platforms
because of their beliefs; Marguerite Chaikin, Self: such foolishness|; Susan Kay, Self: Republican LD3; Jackie Rich,

Self: So, behaving like a responsible adult on social media is now "woke"? A bad bill.; Jennifer Dawson, Self:
inspired by a conspiracy theory that right-wingers are being persecuted by Big Tech. ;this is nonsense.; Ishani Deo,
Self: Everyone, including political candidates, needs to be held to the same standards of behavior. If candidates fail
to meet this, social media platforms should have the right to prevent them behaving inappropriately; JOHN FIENE,
Self: Although there are good reasons to monitor social media, this bill is part of a conspiracy theory that Big Tech
is out to persecute Republicans. Write a new one, please.; Katharine Donahue, Self: No law should be based ona
conspiracy theory. Laws should be based on fact not fantasy.; Dawn Norton LD29, Self: Ban social media platforms
from "deplatforming" or "shadow banning" candidates under a conspiracy theory of persecution by Big Tech. Don't
pass this bill restricting platform moderation & amplifying harmful content.; Rebecca Haynes, Self: Battling an
imaginary opponent. Waste of time and money.; Mary Nelson, Self: First amendment?; Crystal Bazarnic, Self: lf
someone breaks the rules of a platform, they have the right (and responsibility) to take action. Support business.
Vote no.; Karolyn Switzer, Self: This is based on an unfounded conspiracy theory and doesn’t deserve to see the
light of day.; Catherine Hopkins, Self: If every person is not above the law, why would a legislator be above
standards set for all Americans? Legislators are Americans who volunteered to serve for all in their districts. Same
rules need to apply for all. Legislators are NOT above standard; William Yohey, Self: A private company should have
a right to ban anyone who is telling lies or malicious language SHOULD be ban.; Gary Townsend, Self: Anyone
placing false or inflammatory messaging should be banned to protect the public.; Margaret Tinsley, Self: Arizona
should not be regulating international social media platforms. Please vote no.; Elizabeth Brauer, Self: This is a
ridiculous bill. Social media platforms absolutely should ban candidates who spread lies about election integrity
and voter fraud.; Roxanna Kearns, Self: Social media platforms must have the ability to ban candidates who
promote violence; Caroline Anderson, Self: Inspired by a conspiracy theory that right-wingers, candidates in
particular, are being persecuted by Big Tech via settings which let the user post and browse the site normally but
limits their posts’ reach to other users.; Kathryn Dorn, Self: About deplatforming: being a candidate doesn't give
someone the right to incite violence without suffering any consequences. About “shadow banning": do you have
*any* actual evidence of that? (l.e., evidence that a court would accept?) | doubt it.; Steve Singkofer, Self: The .
government is the only entity that is prohibited from censoring people. Conspiracy theories notwithstanding. Vote
NO.; Cynthia Wagner, Self: Conspiracy theory; marcia stewart, Self: THis bill looks to be created based on false
information. The federal gov., is addressing more controls on social media, for many reasons, to include protecting
our children, which should be of greater interest.; John Propster, Self: Another silly bill from a silly woman. VOTE
NO! Save time and money since a veto is certain.; Theresa Ryan, Self: This is a Conspiracy Theory.; Margaret
Cordovano, Self: A candidate who posts on social media should follow the rules for posting and if he or she does
not; there should not be a free pass given just because he or she is a candidate for public office.; Dee Maitland,
Self: There is no conspiracy against Republicans. They just indulge in more hate and violent rhetoric than other
people.; Beth Ballmann, Self: This bill is inspired by a conspiracy theory that right wingers are being persecuted by
Big Tech. They aren't.; Susan Heck, Self: Oppose I’d be happy to take social media away from people that are
supporting big lies, misinformation, and hate speech. Just like | would take my teen’s phone away if they were
doing things that hurt the common good.; Christopher Cerrato, Self: NO!; Brandy Reese, Self: Private businesses
have the right to make and enforce their terms and conditions of service, so long as they aren't discriminating
against protected groups.; Lois Hansen, Self: it is a conspiracy theory that "big tech" is targeting and deplatforming
a political party; John Neville, Self: Not necessary censorship.; Chery! Stafford, Self: Those who trty to use a social
media platform for anti-American, anti-democratic or anti-constitutional communication should be able to be
banned by the platform.; Linda Guarino, Self: Politicians who lie and/or encourage violence should be banned.;
Jeannine Reno, Self: Elon Musk is letting previously banned Right-wing accounts back on Twitter. We have more
pressing issues in AZ than giving any time to this bill.; Nancy Branham, Self: | am constituent in LD7. This bill is
unnecessary and is based on theory that right candidates are being persecuted by Big Tech. Right wing candidates
should SERIOUSLY listen to their constituents. That's who they are voted to represent.

All Comments:
Theodore Farmer, Self: NO ESG; Philip Hubacek, Self: Discrimination for ESG opinions has no place for companies
or individuals.; Brandon LaBorde, Self: ESG is a backdoor to centralized control, akak communism. It is evil and will

leftist ESG doctrine.; Roger Gorres, Self: The enforcement of ESG policies for all, is nothing other than socialism,
and places a undue financial burden on the middle and lower class.; Shannon Severson, Self: Vote YES. STOP
Chinese Communist Party-style social credit score systems that are unconstitutional, discriminatory and un-
American.; Stephen Harris, Self: Protects individuals from being forced to adhere to ESG policies to participate in
the economy; Valerie Giramberk, Self: Banks, insurers and others should not force an individual to accept the
insane notion of ESG (equal outcome for all) in order to due business. This is a country of equal opportunity. Let
hard work and merit determine the outcome.; Gary Saxhaug, Self: Protects individuals from being forced to adhere
to ESG policies to participate in the economy. I'm a PC/SC.; Joseph Myers, Self: Promotes limited discrimination

being forced to adhere to ESG policies to participate in the economy; LI Busam, Self: People should NOT be

unconstitutional and this bill protects us from ESG; Carol Stines, Self: the whole ESG thing is made up and should

America is anachronistic and belongs in the waste bin of history along with other freedom destroying communist
concepts; William Bodine, Self: | don't want government requiring me to follow ESG policies. Keep your hands off
of wallet. SG is anti-american and anti-capitalistic.; Eric Lovelis, Self: As a PC in LD2, i am 100% against this bill.

greatest nation on the planet! Please vote YES on this biil.; Susan Kay, Self: Republican LD3; Mary Jamsa, Self:
Protects people from being forced to adhere to ESG policies to participate in the economy.; Dianne Post, AZ

seem to understand the value of responsible investing.; Margaret Owen, Self: As | understand it, out of Arizona’s

businesses; Kathleen Dubbs, Self: Listen to your county treasurers! This bill is ridiculous; Anne Leota Hart, Self: This
will cost teachers and others to lose millions of dollars for no good reason. This is another kooky extremist position

this bill.; Caroline Anderson, Self: If the measure passes, most banks would not be able to work with any Arizona
counties. Fourteen of Arizona's 15 county treasurers (10 of whom are Republicans) oppose-the bill. Such efforts

billl; Sally Harvey, Self: This is a ridiculous bill and would result in an unworkable environment for county

would severely fimit Arizonans' banking choices. It would be harmful.; Sue Thorne, Self: Dingbat Sen Hoff has
produced a bill that 10 saner Repub. county treasurers are opposed to because banks realize we must go ESG to ~

investments based on their contribution to the greater good of society and other social criteria.; Mary Ann
Graffagnino, Self: Just wrong and discriminatory.; Michael Mote, Self: 1 am in favor of this bill which protects
individuals from being forced to adhere to ESG policies and discriminating against any person based on certain

the Communist Party of China’s ability to neutralize people.; Lee Chadbourn, Self: No one should be forced to
adhere to ESG Policies; Jackie Rich, Self: This bill would prevent most banks from working with any AZ counties.
This bill needs to be amended.; Janet Ackerman, Self: | support. We shouldn’t be forced to adhere to ESG policies
in order to even participate in the economy.; C Dupree, Self: Protects individuals from being forced to adhere to
ESG policies to participate in the economy.; Carol Rogala, Self: Strongly support.; Darren Clift, Self: Senator Barry
Goldwater said It best: “This country has grown great and strong and prosperous by placing major reliance ona

economy. Not ina free country!!; Lisa Maczura, Self: Unworkable and anti-business. Leave the banks alone.;

governmental overreach.; Joseph Alexander, Self: A misguided proposal with very-serious negative impacts
throughout AZ.; Linda Paul, Self: Allow banks to perform business as they see fit. This is governmental over reach
with consequences for the budget/\.; Jennifer Dawson, Self: Fourteen of Arizona's 15 county treasurers (10 of
whom are Republicans) oppose the bill; “How are teachers going to get payroll if | don’t have a bank | can work -
with?” Could cost AZ millions.; Ishani Deo, Self: This doesn't do anything other than create problems for state
systems and make it impossible to do business in or with Arizona; Dawn Norton LD29, Self: The bill would prohibit
banks from discriminating based on political affiliation, social or environmental values. But it could cost AZ millions
and hinder basic services. Fourteen county treasurers oppose it. Reject this bill.; Katharine Donahue, Self: Bad idea
and probably based on the parochial social agenda of the sponsor.; Rivko Knox, Self: When 10 Rep. County
Treasurer's oppose this bill, | think we have a problem!! Vote NO}; Patricia Van Tuyl, Self: Bill would tie the hands
of investors, drastically limiting investment choices and likely to taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars
nationwide and legislating Arizona’s county treasurers out of having access to banks they can use for payroll.;
Karolyn Switzer, Self: This is a bad idea on so many fronts - most AZ county treasurers oppose it because it would
make their work more difficult.; Margaret Tinsley, Self: This would be horribly limiting to investment. Please vote
no.; Catherine Hopkins, Self: An unreasonable bill. County treasurers are opposing this bill since their hands would
be tied paying teachers as no bank could be worked with. Reimagine the bill. This is not the correct bill; Kathryn
Dorn, Self: Are you prepared to explain how you broke the state's economy by forcing most banks and credit
unions out (depriving people of basic services like check-cashing)? If not, please vote against this. Banks don't
have to fund human rights abuses.; Steve Singkofer, Self: Capitalists are, apparently, only capitalists if and when
they can force people to buy their shit. VOTE NO.; Lora Lida Walradt, Self: LD 8 voter: Punitive bill that would that

economic chaos, cost the state millions. REPUBLICANS & Democrats both oppose this bill.; Cynthia Wagner, Self:
Fourteen of Arizona's 15 county treasurers (10 of whom are Republicans) oppose the bill; as the Coconino County
treasurer says, “How are teachers going to get payroll if | don’t have a bank i can work with?”; marcia stewart, Self:
Investment decisions in government workers future retirement funds, need to be handled by professionals and not
politicians. Cultural issues should not be considerations. Allow the experts to work on the future finances; Theresa
Ryan, Self; Even Republicans are against this bill. As a former banker | know banks can't discriminate based on
political affiliation, or social or environmental values. This is a bogus bill.; Janie Smieszek, Self: Too many banks
would not be useable.; Cassio Saverino, Self: Another attempt to punish and micro manage local entities to punish
schools. And you wonder why we have 3000 openings.; Lois Hansen, Self: One recent study says such efforts could
cost Arizona millions.; Eric Ossowski MD, Self: Bad Bill; Cheryl Stafford, Self: Fourteen of Arizona's 15 county
treasurers (10 of whom are Republicans) oppose the bill. This would impede teachers and other public service
employees from having a bank from which to get their paychecks.; Shirley Isaacson, Self: t am an Az. voter; Brandy
Reese, Self: This bill is government overreach and infringement into the affairs of private businesses. It is an
egregious abuse of power.

for Tucson and Phoenix.; Daniel Stormont, Self: | support efforts to increase urban infill and availability of low-

at Tucson and Phoenix to prevent local control in their communities.; Neal Haddad, Self: This bill does nothing to

Of course, even without the multiple subjects, the striker is anti-municipality garbage; Alisa McMahon, Self:

state preemption.; Jack W Lunsford, BUCKEYE, CITY OF: Oppose the striker; Jackie Rich, Self: this striker interferes

Summary of the Strike-Everything Amendment to SB 1161
Overview
Requires municipalities to allow by right the construction of low-income multifamily residential
rental property and establishes municipal reporting requirements relating to housing needs.
History
Statute authorizes municipalities to adopt zoning ordinances and codes to conserve and promote
the public health, safety, convenience and general welfare and outlines zoning guidelines and
requirements (Title 9, Ch.4, Art. 6.1, A.R.S.). The governing body of a municipality must adopt by
ordinance a citizen review process that applies to all rezoning and specific plan applications that
require a public hearing. The citizen review process must include at least:
1) notifying adjacent landowners and other potentially affected citizens of the application;
‘2) ‘informing adjacent landowners and other potentially affected citizens on the substance of the
proposed rezoning; and
3) providing adjacent landowners and other potentially affected citizen an opportunity to express
any issues or concerns regarding the rezoning.
Any zoning ordinances that propose to change property from one zone to another, that imposes
any regulation not previously imposed or that removes any such regulation previously imposed
must be adopted following the procedure prescribed in the citizen review process and in the
manner set for public hearings (A.R.S. § 9-462.03).
A low-income multifamily residential rental property is a multifamily residential property to which:
1) The owner received an allocation of federal income tax credits through the low-income
housing tax credit program;
2) The property remains both income and rent restricted consistent with the low-income housing
tax credit program and the provisions of the declaration of affirmative land use restrictive
covenants agreement recorded on the property. The requirement of this subdivision is met if
an affirmative land use restrictive covenants agreement is not yet recorded on the property
but the property is otherwise subject to both income and rent restrictions under the low-income
housing tax credit program; and
3) A federal, state or tribal court has not entered a judgment or order based on a finding that an
act or omission of an owner or operator of the property constitutes a breach or violation of
either:
a) The declaration of affirmative land use restrictive covenants agreement recorded on the
property.

Sponsor: Senator Kaiser, LD 2
Committee on Commerce
Summary of the Strike-Everything Amendment to SB 1198
Overview
Changes the fund for which a unit owner receives monies for relocation costs from the
association's reserve fund and operating account to the Condominium Relocation Fund.
History
A condominium is a real estate development, portions of which are designated for separate
ownership and the remainder of which is designated for common ownership solely by the owners
of the separate portions (A.R.S. § 33-1202).
Except in the case of taking all units by eminent domain, a condominium may be terminated only
by an agreement of at least 80% of the unit owners in the association. If any real estate in a
condominium is to be sold following termination, the termination agreement must establish the
minimum terms of sale and the title to all real estate vests in the association. Proceeds of the sale
must be distributed to the unit owners and lienholders in proportion to the respective interest of
the unit owners. Upon termination of a condominium, the interests of unit owners are the fair
market values of their units, limited common elements, common element interests immediately
before the termination, their pro rata share of any monies in the association's reserve fund and
the operating account and 5% of the total amount of relocation costs for owner-occupied units.
An independent appraiser selected by the association must determine the fair market value, but .
any unit owner may obtain a second independent appraisal at their own expense. If the unit
owners’ appraisal differs from the associations by five percent or less, the higher appraisal is final.
If the appraisals differ by more than 5% the unit owner must submit to arbitration at the
association's expense and the arbitration amount is the final sale amount (A.R.S. § 33-1228).
Provisions
1. Clarifies the pro rate share of any monies in the association's reserve fund and the operating
account immediately before the termination as a respective interest of a unit owner. (Sec. 1)
2. Stipulates a unit owner, only for a unit that is owner's primary residence, receives an additional
5% of that total amount for relocation costs along with all closing costs of the sales transaction
from the Condominium Relocation Fund. (Sec. 1)
3. Specifies the closing costs includes:
a) the costs for title insurance, if requested; and
b) compensation for the difference the interest rate for any amount owed on a mortgage,
deed of trust or other similar encumbrance on the unit at the time of termination and the

interest rate for a similar mortgage or deed of trust or other similar financing method on
that same amount at the time of termination. (Sec. 1)
Specifies the fair market value of the unit is determined from the higher of:
a) the highest selling price paid for comparable unit that was sold in the condominium in the
previous five years; and
b) the fair market value as determined by an independent appraisal of the unit that is made
using similar features in condominiums within a five-mile radius of the condominium. (Sec.
1)
Removes language relating to the association's independent appraiser determines the fair
market value. (Sec. 1)

section. Unless otherwise specified in the termination agreement, as long
as the association holds title to the real estate, each unit owner and the
unit owner’s successors in interest have an exclusive right to occupancy of
the portion of the real estate that formerly constituted the unit owner's
unit. During the period of that occupancy, each unit owner and the
successors in interest remain liable for all assessments and other
obligations imposed on unit owners by this chapter or the declaration.
G. If the real estate constituting the condominium is not to be sold
following termination, title to all the real estate in the condominium
vests in the unit owners on termination as tenants in common in proportion
to their respective interests as provided in subsection I of this section,
and liens on the units shift accordingly. While the tenancy in common
exists, each unit owner and the unit owner's successors in interest have an
exclusive right to occupancy of the portion of the real estate that
formerly constituted the unit owner's unit.
H. Following termination of the condominium, the proceeds of any
sale of real estate, together with the assets of the association, are held
by the association as trustee for unit owners and holders of liens on the
units as their interests may appear. Following termination, creditors of
the association holding liens on the units that were recorded -before
termination may enforce those liens in the same manner as any lienholder.
I. The respective interests of unit owners referred to in
subsections F, G and H of this section are as follows:
1. Except as provided in paragraph 2 of this subsection, the
respective interests of unit owners are the fair market values of their
units, limited common elements and common element interests immediately
before the terminations-~ AND their pro rata share of any monies in the
association’s reserve fund and the operating account IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THE

retroactivity
_ A. The legislature finds that in recent years, numerous condominium
owners in this state have been forced to sell their residences at a
significantly reduced price to investors that have acquired a substantial
interest in the condominium units in that community and that are
terminating the condominium over the objection of those same owners and, in
most cases, converting the condominiums to rental property. These
condominium owners have been financially harmed by the inequitable system
used by the investors acquiring the condominium units at an extreme
discount in a forced sale. Some of these investors have further harmed
these condominium owners by levying special assessments or other similar
charges against the unit owners once the investors have control of the

association board of directors, thus requiring the special assessments and
charges to be paid on termination, reducing the net sales proceeds for the
unit owners even further. These inequities are compounded by recent real
estate market forces that have made condominium termination and conversion
a more favored investment option.
B. The statutory provisions that govern the acquisition § and
termination of a condominium, originally written in 1977, have been in
place in this state since 1985 and have been unchanged for many years.
Beginning in 2018, the legislature recognized the inequities in the old
statutory scheme that leaves these condominium owners with unequal
bargaining power and has attempted to provide more protections for
condominium owners who are subject to a forced termination. A recent
decision in this state's courts, Cao v. PFP Dorsey Investments, LLC, 253
Ariz, 552 (Az. App. 2022), has reduced or eliminated the effectiveness of
the legislature's recent enactments, resulting in continuing harm to
condominium owners’ private property rights.
C. Based on the foregoing and after careful consideration of the
case Cao v. PFP Dorsey Investments, LLC, 253 Ariz. 552 (Az. App. 2022), the
legislature finds and declares that there is a vital public interest in
maintaining these forms of private property ownership as affordable and
essential housing and in ensuring through a lawful exercise of its police
powers that condominium unit owners are properly compensated for their
private property ownership rights and receive fair compensation for any
condominium units that are forced to be sold under the termination process.
The jegislature further finds that even if this enactment does constitute a
substantial impairment to one or more contractual rights, this enactment is
a valid exercise of this state's police power in that it provides a
safeguard to the vital public interest in protecting these property rights
and is a reasonable and appropriate minor adjustment to the inherently
unequal bargaining position of the parties and furthers this significant
and legitimate public purpose. Therefore, the legislature intends for this

credit or environmental, social justice and governmental score is a statewide concern; and
b) discrimination based on such scores not only threatens the rights, privileges, peace, order,
health, safety and general welfare of Arizona and its inhabitants but menaces the
institutions and foundation of a free democratic state. (Sec. 1, 2, 3)
