“We cannot deny that Arizona is in a homelessness and affordable housing crisis, and we need all hands on deck. The Interagency and Community Council is that deck,' said Hobbs.
TUCSON, Ariz. — Governor Katie Hobbs announced Friday two new executive orders, one addressing homelessness in the state, and another establishing an election security task force.
In her second executive order since taking office Monday, Hobbs is reinstating a council on homelessness and housing that had previously been consolidated in 2020 by former Governor Doug Ducey into the Governor's Office of Youth, Faith and Family; the Arizona Department of Economic Security; and the Arizona Department of Housing.
The interagency body will serve as a non-partisan council of appointed members and government representatives to guide policy and share data related to preventing and ending homelessness. "While I would’ve appreciated this leadership from the last Governor I now look forward to the task force’s recommendations and will continue working toward meaningful election reform that will improve the democratic process for voters and election administrators in Arizona,” said the governor.
