Arizona and Florida are the only two states that currently charge tax on fertilizer which is a critical input for crop production. Seeds, seedlings, roots, bulbs, cuttings and other propagative materials for use in commercially producing agricultural, horticultural, viticultural or floricultural crops in Arizona are exempt from the use tax on tangible personal property purchased and brought into Arizona for storage, use or consumption in Arizona.

Summary:  The Arizona Legislative session opened this year with a hard deadline at the end of January to pass a Drought Contingency Plan (DCP) that would address the declining levels of Lake Mead.  This plan has been in the work for years outside of the legislative process but needed approval by the legislature so that the Governor and his staff could work on a larger plan with other Colorado River Water Users.

Summary: In February of 2019 the US Senate passed the largest public lands package in over a decade. The 662-page package passed out of the US House and President Trump signed the bill in March of 2019.  This massive land package was old school deal-making in Congress permanently re-authorizing the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF), expanding wilderness areas and park but did correct some long-standing issues like the Red River boundary issue and grazing disputes.
