The Arizona State Government is responsible for overseeing the administration and implementation of state laws and policies across Arizona. It generates revenue through various means including taxes, fees, and federal grants, which fund public services such as education, healthcare, infrastructure, and public safety. Established in 1912 when Arizona became the 48th state of the United States, the government operates through three branches: executive, led by the Governor; legislative, comprising the Senate and House of Representatives; and judicial, which includes the state court system.
