Sen. Rogers Pushes Crypto Tax Payment Option in Arizona

Senator Wendy Rogers introduced SB1024 to the House Commerce Committee, aiming to let Arizonans pay their taxes with cryptocurrency. She explained that third-party services would handle the transactions, converting crypto to dollars so the state isn’t exposed to risk. Some members asked for more oversight, like a formal selection process for providers, but Rogers said agencies should have flexibility. She called the bill a step toward modernizing how the state handles payments.
