Governor Jan Brewer has issued a special session call to the Arizona Legislature for Monday, August 9, 2010, at 3:00pm. The special session will exclusively address a ballot referral measure amending the Arizona Constitution to protect secret balloting for Arizona employees. No other items are planned for the special session.
"The right to cast your vote without fear or intimidation is a fundamental tenant of our democracy," said Governor Jan Brewer. "I believe that Arizona voters should be provided the opportunity to support and protect the constitutional right to a secret ballot for Arizona employees."
The special session is expected to last 1-3 days.
