Let's be honest about what these tariffs actually were: an illegal tax on American families and businesses. President Trump cannot impose taxes on the American people without the consent of their elected representatives in Congress.

Settlement in Rental Price-Fixing Case | Attorney General Mayes

Our settlement with Weidner not only stops harmful practices, but also provides direct assistance to renters. We remain in active litigation with RealPage and other corporate landlords to hold them accountable.

I will always fight to protect the constitutional rights of every child born in Arizona, and I'm proud to stand with my fellow attorneys general in defense of the constitutional principles our nation has upheld for over 150 years.

When customers leave a tip, they expect it to reach the worker who earned it. When workers are promised pay, they expect to receive it. This settlement makes both of those things right.

I’ll keep fighting on behalf of the people of our state against bad actors committing consumer fraud or creating public nuisances. But it should be abundantly clear to Arizonans whose side of these fights legislative Republicans are on.

GOP legislators are trying to curtail my authority to bring public nuisance actions - and now they want to stop me from fighting consumer fraud. They're hell bent on stopping me from protecting Arizonans.

Landlord accused of price fixing settles suit. How much will renters get? Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes will dismiss claims against Weidner Property Management, which agreed to donate $1 million to help tenants.

This settlement not only stops harmful practices but also provides direct assistance to renters. My office will continue to hold companies accountable and restore transparency and fairness to the rental market.

This case is a clear example of someone who abused the public's trust for personal gain. Arizonans deserve to know that those who steal from their communities will be held accountable, and this sentence reflects exactly that.

Outrageous. We now know from a whistleblower that he was instructed to train new ICE recruits to enter homes without judicial warrants -- shredding the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution.

15 States Sue H.H.S. Over Revisions to Vaccine Schedule

Choice Home Warranty allegedly misrepresented the coverage provided by their warranties and pocketed millions from vulnerable Arizonans. We fought back and secured the largest settlement with a home warranty company in Arizona history.

Trump's overturned tariffs cost $126 billion. Which states paid the most It's unclear who will get that cash back β€”Β or when.

Arizona families and businesses paid $1.6 billion in unlawfully collected tariffs. The Trump administration should refund them.

Mayes notches big win as Supreme Court strikes down Trump’s tariffs The Feb. 20 ruling from the nation's top court was Attorney General Kris Mayes' highest profile win in her battles against the Trump administration.

This case was about more than just tariffs or economic policy. It was about the rule of law and American democracy.

Today is a major win for the rule of law. All year, Americans have watched prices climb and wondered if anyone in power was going to do anything about President Trump's illegal tariffs. We did something about it.

The Supreme Court has just struck down Trump's tariffs. A tax he illegally imposed on the American people. I'm proud to have brought this lawsuit alongside my fellow AG's on behalf of the people of Arizona and all Americans.

Arizona bill protects tenants with temperature standards (The Center Square) - A new Arizona bill seeks to protect tenants by establishing temperature standards for rental properties.

This legislation establishes common-sense protections that recognize that landlords have a responsibility to provide safe and habitable housing even in rural parts of our state. It's far past time we provide these protections to every tenant in Arizona.

It's always an honor to share what my office is doing to protect our state. I had a great time at the Mesa West Rotary Club discussing the Arizona Attorney General's Office's efforts to safeguard Arizona and it's residents while fighting corporate greed, drug trafficking, and abuses of power.

We won this case, and the court was clear β€” this termination was unlawful and FEMA was ordered to reverse it. Yet two months later, Arizona communities are still waiting for flood protections that could save lives and property.
