Budget and highway aid goals set for Arizona legislature
The Arizona Legislature will convene at 10 a.m. Monday to adopt a revised state budget and amend a law to prevent loss of federal road funds. Gov. Howard Pyle will outline the session at 11 a.m. A weeklong special session is hoped, though not guaranteed. A federal demand to remove a contractor residency rule expands the agenda, threatening no bids on road projects without change. The budget focus follows Thursday committee work and a potential rise above the initial 1951 year appropriation.
