The Arizona House completed third readings and recorded votes on a large number of measures on March 10, 2026. Key outcomes and vote tallies on the floor included:
- House Bill 24‑29 (short‑term rentals): Passed 36 ayes, 19 nays, 4 not voting, 1 vacant. Sponsor Representative Bliss described the bill as a negotiated, targeted measure to address repeat bad actors while protecting private‑property rights.
- House Bill 24‑44 (Arizona State Board of Pharmacy): Passed 33 ayes, 22 nays, 4 not voting, 1 vacant after floor debate about access to care and professional opposition.
- House Bill 26‑20 (appropriations to the Department of Veterans' Services): Passed 51 ayes, 4 nays, 4 not voting, 1 vacant. Supporters described specific appropriation detail and oversight guardrails.
- House Bill 29‑14 (long‑term care resident recordings): Passed 40 ayes, 15 nays, 4 not voting, 1 vacant. Supporters said the bill permits resident‑authorized cameras; opponents raised concerns about rulemaking.
- House Bill 27‑26 (health‑care device/sleep apnea): Failed 16 ayes, 39 nays, 4 not voting, 1 vacant after debate over device costs and statewide fiscal exposure.
- House Bill 20‑47 (forcible entry and detainer / eviction): Passed 32 ayes, 22 nays, 5 not voting, 1 vacant following a floor exchange about criminalizing poverty.
- House Concurrent Memorial 20‑16 (rename a stretch of U.S. Route 191 as Chief Barbancito Highway): Passed 32 ayes, 23 nays, 4 not voting.
Several other measures were read and passed or retained on the calendar; the clerk recorded actions for transmittal to the Senate. Many members used recorded explanations of vote to put their floor rationale on the record. Where the transcript records a roll call, the tallies above follow the clerk's announcements on the floor.
Next steps: bills that passed the House will be enrolled for transmittal to the Senate or otherwise proceed according to legislative rules; bills that failed may be reconsidered per applicable rules or refiled in future sessions.
