Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey has signed legislation that will prevent temporary medical licenses issued under his coronavirus executive orders from immediately becoming invalid if he ends the state of emergency he issued two years ago.
"If we want the emergency orders to end, this has to be taken care of first," Republican Rep. Regina Cobb said at the same meeting of GOP House members. "And then once this is taken care of, then the governor can do what he needs to do as far as ending any emergency orders."
On Friday, the governor praised doctors, nurses and other health professionals who have been on the front line of the fight against the coronavirus pandemic while announcing the signing of the licensing extension and 16 other bills. He said extending the temporary licenses means people can keep their jobs and hospitals and other health care facilities can keep their staff.
