This informal meeting was a legislative update. A brief presentation was made to the Board of Supervisors by a team comprised of Michelle Hindman, Government Relations Director along with Christopher T. Cushing, Nelson Mullins and Jennifer Pharoah.
During her update, Michelle Hindman mentioned the state legislative situation coming up in 2023 that will be a first since 2009 under Gov. Janet Napolitano — a Republican majority in both houses will be offset by a Democratic governor (Katie Hobbs).
The rest of the presentation by the other members of the team focused on federal legislative priorities coming in the 2023 term that will affect Maricopa County.
