Veterans-related bill tied to Arizona Department of Housing fails third reading after lawmakers express lack of caucus support
On third reading, the House failed to pass Senate Bill 11-51, a measure amending provisions related to the Arizona Department of Housing. The clerk recorded the vote as 6 ayes, 49 nays and 5 not voting, and the bill failed in open session.

Representative Marquez, explaining her vote, said the bill "looks like a good bill for veterans, but it does not have the support of the majority of our veterans caucus and, would ask folks to vote no on it." Representative Kupper explained his vote similarly: "I spoke with, not the legislator, but the lobbyist who's running this bill. And every question I asked this individual about this bill, he couldn't answer anything for me. I don't feel comfortable with this."

After roll call and explanations, the clerk recorded the vote and announced the bill had failed.

The transcript shows third-reading debate and explanations for votes by multiple members and records the final tally and failure of SB 11-51; it does not include additional floor motions tied to the bill in the provided excerpt.
