Allowing Arizonans to bring guns legally to colleges 'could lead to greater anxiety among students, staff and faculty,' Gov. Katie Hobbs said.
Howard Fischer PHOENIX — Arizonans won't be able to bring guns legally onto college campuses, Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs said Tuesday.
"It may also lead to increased risk on campus and other unintended consequences,'' she wrote."We cannot set a precedent that allows guns on campus.''People are also reading… Jones told colleagues during hearings that the campus guns bill was simply an extension of the Second Amendment and its wording that the right of people to be armed"shall not be infringed.
"This bill could create a situation where Arizona's election administrators are no longer able to procure certifiable voting and tabulating equipment,'' Hobbs wrote."It should be clear how catastrophic that would be for the successful administration of elections in Arizona.'' The program, created in 2017, provides one year of college tuition for students at public community colleges and universities in education programs in exchange for each year of teaching in an Arizona public school. Rep. Matt Gress, R-Phoenix, sought to expand that to all private colleges offering education degrees.
