Arizona SB1328 amends the state's domestic relations statutes to emphasize parents' rights and children's best interests.

Arizona SB1328 amends section 25-103 of the Arizona Revised Statutes to clarify the purposes of the domestic relations title. It emphasizes promoting strong families and family values, protecting parents' rights, and ensuring children have substantial, frequent, meaningful, and continuing parenting time with both parents. The bill also states that, absent evidence to the contrary, it is in a child's best interest to have both parents participate in decision-making about the child. Courts are directed to apply these provisions consistently.
