PHOENIX (AP) — A bill backed by top Republicans in the Arizona Legislature that replaces pensions for new judges and other elected officials with a 401(k)-style retirement plan passed the Arizona Senate on the second try Wednesday.

The 16-13 vote came a day after the bill failed on a 12-12 vote because four Republican senators were absent. The House already voted for the bill, but a second vote is required because of Senate amendments before it heads to Gov. Jan Brewer for her consideration.
