What the Arizona governor does
Arizona's governor is the state's chief executive, signs or vetoes legislation, approves the state budget, issues executive orders, and oversees executive agencies.
Shared authority: The governor shares authority with the Legislature, independently elected officers, agencies, courts, local governments, and the federal government. An event during an administration is not automatically the governor's personal action.
How FactVote presents the public record: FactVote includes only orders, vetoes, appointments, signed actions, official statements, or other records explicitly attributed to the governor.
