Governor Hobbs expressed disappointment in Superintendent Horne's handling of the situation, stating that he has consistently put his own political agenda ahead of the needs of public schools and the children who rely on them. She called for him to be held accountable for his mismanagement of school improvement grants and the resulting loss of critical federal funding.

This latest development comes after Superintendent Horne failed to secure important Title I funding for Arizona public schools. Instead, he focused efforts on a $10 million advertising campaign for the controversial ESA program, which has been criticized for its lack of accountability and sustainability.
