GOP Sen. Jake Hoffman threatens to kill ADOT. You won’t believe why

ADOT

Opinion: Sen. Jake Hoffman’s threat to kill ADOT in order to nix talk of Phoenix-to-Tucson train service is the smartest plan he’s hatched since he signing on as a fake elector. Yeah, not so smart.

Let it be known that Sen. Jake Hoffman doesn’t like riding trains.

So much does he despise them that he’s willing to do away with the state agency that builds roads and maintains bridges and patrols highways.

Hoffman is attempting to hold the Arizona Department of Transportation hostage, vowing to kill off the entire agency unless Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs agrees to strike dead, now and forevermore, any thought of establishing a high-speed commuter rail line between Phoenix and Tucson.

“This is something out there that the people do not want,” Hoffman, R-Queen Creek, declared this week.
