This comes after she has putten so much effort to publically express her “grave concerns” over the Arizona audit.

Also, she was bashing the Senate numerous times over the “fraudit” over the Maricopa County ballots… And now, she’s the one being taken away the ability to defend election lawsuits, by the Republican-led House Appropriations Commitee.
Katie Hobbs has conscientiously supervised elections in Arizona. Republicans there just stripped her of some powers — including her ability to litigate election lawsuits. They gave control of that process to the state AG, a Republican.

Here’s the story from ABC15 news on Tuesday, the very same day these circumstances occurred.
“After publicly expressing “grave concerns” over Arizona’s audit of the 2020 election results, Secretary of State Katie Hobbs (D) was “stripped” of her ability to “defend election lawsuits” by the state’s Republican-led House Appropriations Committee, reported Arizona’s ABC 15 on Tuesday. The duty was transferred “exclusively” to Attorney General Mark Brnovich (R) through the end of the 2023 fiscal year.
Democrats say the move is retaliation against Hobbs’ defense of Arizona voters in “lawsuits filed by the State Republican Party and others challenging Arizona’s election results,” per ABC 15. “It can’t be just a coincidence” that Republicans are blocking a “vocal critic of the audit,” writes Elvia Díaz for azcentral.com. Democratic State Rep. Randy Friese reportedly called the move “troubling,” “disturbing,” and “quite nefarious.”
Furthermore, the Appropriations Committee removed Hobb’s “oversight of the Capitol Museum,” ABC 15 reports, after Hobbs angered state lawmakers when she “flew a gay pride flag from the building’s balcony” in 2019.”
Though, nothing has still been totally lost…
It will have to pass full legislature.
