AZ HB2645

Amends section 41-192 of Arizona Revised Statutes to revise gender-neutral language regarding the attorney general's powers and duties, replacing gender-specific pronouns with "the attorney general."

Reorganizes the list of state agencies exempt from the prohibition on employing legal counsel without authorization from the attorney general, renumbering the exemptions from 1-13 and adding the secretary of state and superintendent of public instruction as newly exempted offices.

Makes technical corrections throughout the statute, including changing "section" to "subsection," "funds" to "monies," "such" to "the," and "upon" to "on" for consistency and clarity.

Adds clarification that the industrial commission exemption refers to the "Industrial Commission of Arizona" specifically.
