McGee served on the Washington Elementary School District Governing Board from 1999 to 2007.  Brophy McGee won a House seat in LD11 in 2010 and then won the House seat in LD28 in 2012 and 2014.  In 2016, she won the Senate seat in LD28 and has maintained that seat until today.  Brophy McGee is seeking reelection for the same Senate seat this year.  Brophy McGee did not respond to our survey despite repeated attempts to contact her.  In 2016, Cannabis Dispensary featured an article on Brophy McGee on February 19 which discussed her attempts to ban EBT cards for medical marijuana:  “In Arizona, people can use their EBT cards to purchase many basic necessities; including meat, bread, milk and prescriptions.  But what’s the answer when it comes to medical marijuana?  Under current law, recipients are not allowed to use their EBT cards in liquor stores, casinos or strip clubs.  Rep. Kate Brophy McGee (R-Phoenix) wants to add medical marijuana dispensaries to the list by amending House Bill 2261. “I just don’t think that taxpayer funds should be used for that purpose,” she said.”  However, when the legislature was considering a bill to fund anti-marijuana research, she moved to allow some funds to be used for determining “the safety, efficacy and adverse events associated with marijuana.”  Brophy McGee has avoided being a prime or co-sponsor of any cannabis reform bills in the last two legislative sessions and her office actually asked us to stop calling when we were trying to set up an appointment with her earlier this year.
