Legacy
An elementary school is named for Hull in Chandler, Arizona.
Hull is best known for her role in signing a bill that resulted in the "alt-fuels" scandal of 2000. The resulting law promised car buyers up to 60 percent off new vehicles if they were converted to run on alternative fuels like propane or natural gas, yet did not properly cap the number of buyers eligible for the program, (nor did it force buyers to use the new fuels). Instead of the $10 million the program was supposed to cost, it ended up costing Arizona $200 million before lawmakers changed the rules.
Hull is also known in her role as governor for signing the death warrants of two foreign nationals, despite international pressure from Germany for a retrial.
