“But I will not sign into law any legislation that attacks people’s rights and doesn’t address serious issues. “I will support legislation regardless of where it comes from,” Hobbs said in a March interview with Phoenix New Times. Since we dubbed her the "Veto Queen," Hobbs has blackballed two dozen more bills, including one about abortion, one about sex offenders, and another one about stealing garden gnomes. Hobbs has also broken the record for the most vetoes in any legislative session, which previously stood at 58 by Napolitano in 2005, according to the Arizona Mirror. And her first legislative session as governor isn’t over yet. But Hobbs has made a habit of giving Republican-backed legislation a one-way ticket to the veto bin, having done so 63 times as of April 18.
