PHOENIX — On this week’s AZ Political Podcast, Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Horne joins to discuss several topics involving Arizona schools.

First, Horne discusses the latest with the ESA program and what to expect from it with another school year underway.

We also react to the recent decision from a federal appeals court that upheld a lower-court ruling that blocks Arizona from enforcing a 2022 law that bans transgender girls from playing on girls school sports teams.

Thanks, as always, for checking out the AZ Political Podcast.
