A conversation with Attorney General Kris Mayes
July 23
Arizona’s Attorney General Kris Mayes joined “Arizona Horizon” to discuss the latest from her office.
Most recently, Mayes has brought the status of the San Carlos Irrigation project to the attention of the federal government. There has been repeated reports of outages by the almost 13,000 people that rely on the utility for power. This has become a concern as the temperatures are on the rise during the Arizona summer.
Mayes also asked Congress alongside 21 other attorney generals to prohibit Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents from using masks during raids to conceal their identities.
Another lawsuit Mayes has brought about with other attorney generals is one regarding the Trump administration freezing funding for schools. The more that $6.8 million in funding would pay for after school programs, including programs for students whose first language is not English.
