They were livid about former governor Brewer's accpetance of the Obamacare increase in Medicaid coverage and the new governor isn't about to reverse that decision:

Ducey would also leave intact the state's controversial expansion of Medicaid, something the Legislature is suing to overturn.

He was joined in a show of general agreement by state Senate President Andy Biggs, R-Gilbert, and House Speaker David Gowan, R-Sierra Vista, as well as the chairmen of each chamber's appropriations committee.

"Having seen budgets come and go for more than a decade, I can tell you it's really exciting for me to stand with the governor," Biggs said. He said he is enthused at the prospect of a structurally balanced budget and said Ducey's budget moves the state in the "right direction."

Gowan echoed that sentiment.
