RSVP Now for February 19th Forum
Responsible Reform:  Protecting Citizen Initiatives

The constitutionally guaranteed right of Arizonans to enact law through initiative is under attack.  Problems with misleading language and fraudulent signatures were abundant in 2008.  How can we address valid concerns while precluding legislators from an all-out power grab?  What kinds of changes would resolve the current breakdowns while protecting the ability of grassroots organizations to place measures on the ballot?  We'll hear the pros and cons of the various proposals under consideration from Rep. Kyrsten Sinema, Attorney Stephanie Nichols-Young, and Sandy Bahr of the Sierra Club.
