Center for Arizona Policy v. Arizona Secretary of State (AZ Supreme Court Decision)

On June 29, 2026, the Arizona Supreme Court issued a decision in Center for Arizona Policy, et al. v. Arizona Secretary of State, et al., rejecting facial challenges to Proposition 211, also known as the Voters’ Right to Know Act, brought by the Center for Arizona Policy, the Arizona Free Enterprise Club, and two John Doe plaintiffs under the Arizona Constitution’s “speak freely” and “private affairs” clauses. The Court also affirmed the dismissal of the plaintiffs’ as-applied challenge under the Arizona Constitution’s private affairs clause, but permitted Plaintiffs to pursue an as-applied challenge under the speak freely clause. This decision upholds robust disclosure of the original sources behind major campaign spending in Arizona, affirming Arizona voters’ right to know who is spending to influence their votes.
