The future of diversity, equity and inclusion, or DEI, in Arizona will be on the November ballot with Proposition 142, which would amend the state constitution to prohibit race-based programs and positions.

The Goldwater Institute is a key supporter of Prop 142. The conservative think tank argues that the constitutional amendment would ensure equal opportunity in Arizona.

For faith-based advocacy group Lutheran Advocacy Ministry in Arizona, or LAMA, part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, Prop 142 ignores realities of actual inequity in Arizona.
