Arizona SCR1010 proposes an amendment to the state constitution to change the grounds for impeaching state and judicial officers.

Arizona SCR1010 proposes an amendment to the state constitution, specifically to Article VIII, Part 2, Section 2. It changes the grounds for impeaching the governor and other state and judicial officers to include high crimes, misdemeanors, malfeasance in office, and failing to follow and enforce a state law or court rule. Conviction requires a two-thirds concurrence of the senators elected. Judgment in such cases would result in removal from office and disqualification from holding any office of honor, trust, or profit in the state.
