Arizona’s governor vetoed 22 bills passed by his Republican colleagues in the state legislature. All because they refused to get his proposed budget passed.

From AZ Mirror:

Gov. Doug Ducey is ratcheting up the pressure on GOP lawmakers to reach an agreement on the budget, vowing not to sign any other legislation that reaches his desk until he gets a budget, and backing up his threat by vetoing 22 bills…

That list of bills included legislation to ban certain kinds of anti-racism training for government employees, a bill that would make it a felony for election officials to send early ballots to voters who don’t request them.
