Hank Stephenson used to cover Arizona politics for lobbyists and insiders. In 2021, he started the Arizona Agenda for everyone else. Since then, he helped launch the Tucson Agenda to ensure Southern Arizona politicians don’t go unwatched. He also co-founded Skywolf, which builds legislative intelligence tools for those unfortunate souls who have to follow the Capitol for a living. He’s been covering Arizona for nearly 20 years, including for The New York Times, Politico Magazine and Columbia Journalism Review. But he's a community reporter at heart — he started out bouncing around small-town papers from Nogales to North Dakota. He enjoys political gossip, public records and comeuppances.
