In the waning hours of the 2013 session, the Arizona Legislature consolidated multiple voter suppression bills into the Omnibus Voter Suppression Bill HB2305, with 3 Republicans changing their previous "nay" votes to "yay". This bill was so important to the national Republican Party that Speaker of the House John Boehner and RNC Chairman Reince Priebus called Arizona Republicans and told them to find the votes to pass it.

Days later, Democrats, Greens, Libertarians, unionists, and others joined forces to launch a petition drive to stop implementation of HB2305 and put a Citizens' Veto on the November 2014 ballot. In this video Arizona Democratic Party officers call on precinct committee persons and volunteers to collect 86,000+ signatures in a massive 90-day effort.
