What happened
The Goldwater Institute sponsored propositions in Arizona that seek to restrict DEI practices and ban vehicle mileage taxes. Proposition 141 specifically aims to prevent government entities from imposing taxes or fees based on the number of miles a person travels in a motor vehicle. These propositions were sent to voters to bypass the veto power of Governor Katie Hobbs.

Why it matters
The propositions could alter state policy in Arizona regarding government spending and transportation funding. Opponents of Proposition 141 argue that the ban could prevent the government from ensuring electric vehicles pay their fair share of road maintenance.
The Goldwater Institute previously helped write a bill targeting state practices, which was sponsored regarding state functions in Arizona.
