Arizonans face the twin problems of recovering from a deep and long economic recession and dealing with significant fiscal imbalances in state and local governments. This report details a roadmap to address both the short-term and long-term economic and fiscal issues. The roadmap addresses economic needs by proposing actions in the near term to stimulate the economy and to provide jobs. In the longer term, the economic focus of the plan shifts from job creation to job quality. The roadmap also addresses the state's fiscal difficulties in both the short and long term.
