In this episode of the Ride With Us podcast, Greg Mengarelli sits down with Arizona Representatives Quang Nguyen and Selina Bliss for a legislative update focused on Prescott, Yavapai County, and rural Arizona. They discuss the close of the legislative session, the state budget, tax cuts, and key bills that impact Arizona families, seniors, ranchers, and property owners.
The conversation also highlights the Andy Groseta Act, a bill focused on transparency in meat labeling. This law helps consumers know if they are buying traditional meat or cell-cultured, lab-grown products. As a result, the bill supports Arizona ranching heritage and gives families more information about the food they bring home.
Next, the group discusses improvements at the Prescott Rodeo Grounds and the long effort to secure state funding for the project. They discuss the economic impact of the World’s Oldest Rodeo, which brings visitors to Prescott from across the country and around the world. In addition, they share how the rodeo supports local businesses, tourism, and Arizona’s western traditions.
Finally, Nguyen and Bliss discuss future legislative priorities, including cattle theft, deed and title fraud, and continued work for rural communities. They also reflect on the importance of public service, local history, and keeping Arizona residents informed. Tune in for a timely update on Arizona legislation, Prescott Rodeo progress, and the issues shaping Yavapai County.
