The resolution SCR1007 proposes to prohibit public entities in Arizona from entering into contracts valued at $100,000 or more with companies unless those contracts include a written certification that the company does not discriminate against firearm entities or firearm trade associations. This measure is subject to voter approval and aims to ensure that public contracts do not favor companies that engage in discriminatory practices against the firearm industry. The resolution also outlines specific definitions related to firearms, firearm entities, and discrimination, and it establishes compliance requirements for public entities regarding procurement processes.
Additionally, the resolution amends existing statutes that currently prohibit public entities from contracting with companies that boycott Israel or use forced labor related to ethnic Uyghurs in China. It includes provisions for exemptions in certain circumstances, such as sole source contracts or lack of responsive bids. The resolution will be submitted to voters at the next general election and will take effect only if approved by the electorate and proclaimed by the Governor. The measure is set to be repealed on January 1, 2033, unless further action is taken.
