The House put in extra time and debate on a couple of seemingly inconspicuous bills aimed at weakening the State Bar of Arizona.
The first of the bills, HB2219, failed 29-30 on Feb. 24, but not before nearly 40 minutes of floor debate the previous day that left supporters of the bill confused and exasperated.
The bill turns over attorney licensing to the Arizona Supreme Court.
