Voters in Maricopa County are set to determine the future of a sales tax that supports law enforcement funding. The proposed measure, known as Proposition 413, seeks to extend the current one-fifth-of-one-cent sales tax for an additional 20 years.

The extension of this tax is intended to provide continued financial support for public safety initiatives within the county. Further details regarding the implications of the proposition or the current funding levels were not provided.

The decision will be made during the upcoming election, where voters will have the opportunity to express their views on the continuation of this funding mechanism for law enforcement.
