Arizona Alliance for Retired Americans

Attorney General Kris Mayes has sued 3 Tucson-area apartment managers and owners over despicable, unsafe living conditions - non-working ACs, mold, broken plumbing, crumbling infrastructure, and the list goes on. Every renter deserves a safe, clean place to live, especially with reliable AC during Arizona’s extreme summers. Thank you, AG Mayes, for standing up for what’s right!

The fight for water rights over the Colorado River remains ongoing. With new federal plans suggesting Arizona could face severe cuts, lawmakers continue to push back, arguing the proposal hits Arizonans hardest. 40 million people in the state rely on water from the river, and its continued shrinkage demands fast, long-term solutions!

🔋 🌞 TEP has opened its largest battery storage facility on Tucson’s southeast side. This facility enables solar power to be stored and used during peak demand hours, helping utilities manage rising summer electricity demand and keep costs lower for consumers.

Arizonans know firsthand that as summer temperatures climb, so do our energy bills. So, why does the Arizona Corporation Commission keep voting to approve rate increases?

Companies such as Arizona Public Service - APS and Tucson Electric Power report consistent profits year after year while seeking ongoing rate increases from the ACC. Arizonans who are already struggling to afford everyday necessities should not be worried about higher enery costs. The ACC needs to protect consumers and say NO to rate hikes!

🌡 📈 Arizona is breaking heat records—and utility bills are breaking budgets.

As the Arizona Corporation Commission rolls back energy efficiency standards and considers a 14% APS rate hike, Arizona families are left paying more. 💸
