PHOENIX (AP) - The Arizona Attorney General's Office has filed a special action with the state Supreme Court seeking to overturn the rideshare ordinance at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.
State prosecutors also filed a request Tuesday with Arizona's high court to stop the fees from going into effect on Feb. 1.
Attorney General Mark Brnovich says a new $4 fee on Uber and Lyft rides to and from the Phoenix airport is "very likely" unconstitutional.
The ride-hailing giants are threatening to abandon the airport service.
Brnovich says the fees approved by the Phoenix City Council probably violated a 2018 ballot measure prohibiting higher taxes on services.
