Save Our Schools Petition Drive

Save Our Schools Arizona is running a statewide referendum to stop the universal voucher expansion passed by the legislature and signed by the Governor earlier this summer. This expansion will strip Arizona public schools of hundreds of millions of dollars a year. This means our taxpayer funds will be diverted to unaccountable private academies with no transparency or oversight of public dollars. Mad? Furious? Join the efforts to Stop Voucher Expansion: teamsosarizona.com. 

 The Arizona legislature passed this bill in June, defying the will of Arizona voters who already rejected universal vouchers in 2018 by a 2-1 margin. But SOSAZ is fighting back. By collecting 218,823 valid signatures by Sept. 23, 2022, they are working to stop the law from going into effect and put it on the 2024 ballot, where AZ voters will reject it once and for all.  

 The stakes could not be higher - this is a referendum to decide the future of education in Arizona and across the nation.  

 How can you help?  

 Join the August Signature Slam this weekend: teamsosarizona.com/signature-slam/

 If you need petitions to circulate to friends and family, PLEASE act quickly. You can get petitions at any Petition Hub at or any August Signature Slam event this weekend: teamsosarizona.com/signature-slam/  

 Make no mistake - our public schools are under attack and Arizona is the tip of the spear 

 We must put a stop to this before they eradicate the cornerstone of our democracy - public education. Donate at sosarizona.org/donate
