Request to Speak

Make your voice heard!
The Request To Speak program (RTS) electronically collects public input on bills in the Arizona legislature. It allows you to make comments on bills, and express support or opposition for those bills.

Get an Account: RTS accounts must be activated at the Capitol. If you’d like an account, simply fill out this form. Volunteers from Civic Engagement Beyond Voting will activate an account for you and send you an email with instructions on how to get started.

This video outlines how to use the RTS system:
