In Arizona, a divided state government means elected leaders spend a lot of their time blocking one another’s policy proposals instead of creating bipartisan compromise.

@TucsonSentinel “RECORD 174 VETOES HIGHLIGHT HOW MUCH FASCIST DRIVEL AZ REPUBLICANS PERSISTENTLY TRY TO FOIST UPON CONSTITUENTS.”

There, fixed that *egregious* bothsidesing headline. Your article itself literally reports that Republicans are *proud* of how much active harm they’re trying to do to Arizonans that Hobbs is shutting down. Maybe the headline could reflect the clear one-way directionality that the contents articulate, instead of gesturing at “both sides bad”?

@TucsonSentinel BOTH SIDES!

"Republicans" is fewer letters (if that's a concern) than "elected leaders" and is more accurate.

Funny how "partisan gridlock" is only a problem when the chief executive is a Democrat. If the chief exec were a Republican, you'd be calling it "obstruction."
