Jan Brewer wears the pants in the family…..
With one final battle that lasted until the wee hours of the night, the Arizona Legislature tackled important issues ranging from the licensing of barbers to school vouchers.
The winners this year were the handful of cronies on Tucson’s Rio Nuevo District Board, and the losers were 100,000 to 120,000 low-income students who had hoped to be granted Empowerment Scholarships.
The Legislature had hoped to protect gun owners, but Governor Jan Brewer used her veto stamp and wiped out nearly everything the legislators had worked on all year.
