An Arizona bill that would make it a crime to alert others about immigration agent operations failed to pass the state House by one vote, but Republicans plan to revive it after a legislative recess.

The Arizona House of Representatives rejected a GOP-backed bill creating a class 1 misdemeanor for 'unlawful alerting'—warning others about impending immigration arrests—by a 29-22 vote, one shy of passage; Rep. Cody Reim of Scottsdale flipped his vote to enable future reconsideration, but the bill cannot be revived for at least four weeks as lawmakers recess until June 1 amid a budget stalemate with Democratic Governor Katie Hobbs, who is expected to veto it.
