Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs continued her streak of vetoing a record number of bills on Tuesday by shooting down SB 1129, sponsored by Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers, which would have allowed Arizona homeowners to remove an unlawful occupant or a "squatter" from their property.

The bill would have also deemed that "a person who fails or refuses to surrender possession of the property as directed by a law enforcement officer is committing trespass."

Hobbs vetoed the legislation, stating in a letter, "This bill fails to leverage existing legal mechanisms, respect the due process rights of lawful tenants, and minimize unintended consequences such as for victims of domestic violence."
