Republican lawmakers in Arizona are joining a chorus of conservatives across the country trying to ban basic income programs, which offer residents no-strings-attached payments.
Arizona state lawmakers introduced a bill that would ban any municipality or county from making payments to a person as part of a guaranteed basic income program. The law, House Bill 2375, describes a “guaranteed income program” as any program where someone receives payments that are “unearned” and can be used for any reason.
This seems like the opposite direction to the way we should be heading. What actions can people take to fight this?
