Arizona Supreme Court

Jaime Molera v. reagan/invest in Education

October 26, 2018

Summary

The court reversed the superior court and disqualified the Invest in Education Act from the November 2018 ballot. It held that the initiative description omitted a principal provision concerning income-tax indexing and described the tax-rate increases in a manner creating a significant danger of confusion or unfairness. The court therefore did not reach the remaining challenges concerning circulator attestations, the constitutionality of the strict-compliance statute, or excluded petition sheets.
