#3 Legislative Push for Housing Affordability
|
Last week, we met with AZ Speaker of the House JD Mesnard to communicate the importance of HB2507 which would cut back on frivolous lawsuits pushed by out of state attorneys that are driving up housing costs. Future homeowners would be the big winner if the bill passes.

#4 Looking for New Employees?
|
We have tapped into a new pipeline for skilled workers. Governor Ducey’s
Second Chance program is focused on helping ex-offenders transition to the workplace. The program helps eligible inmates learn job readiness skills to prepare them for post-prison employment. When SAHBA toured the employment center at Wilmot Prison, we learned many in the program have experience in the construction trades. Contact
Art Flagg if you want to learn more.
