The Council must be Proud of their Chief
Failure by the City and the Police Department to release public records pertaining to Chief Harris' involvement in the Obama administrations lawsuit challenging SB-1070 has prompted lawsuits by Judicial Watch out of Washington DC, a conservative, non-partisan educational foundation, that promotes transparency, accountability and integrity in government, politics and the law.

PLEA & APA Testify re: Anti Union Bill
PLEA Lobbyist and Consultant Dr. Levi Bolton and APA Executive Director Brian Livingston testified in the Arizona Senate Judiciary Committee to represent the interest of Law Enforcement in the controversial new ballot initiative. The bill supporters insist that the new initiative's single purpose is to insure that where local, state or federal law permits or requires an election for employee elections, it shall be by secret ballot. Both PLEA and the APA support secret ballots, it is the actual bill language that is problematic and creates potential interpretation issues that may expand entitlements beyond the scope of the crafter's intent.
Why SB 1070 and Border Security are Important
On February 2, 2009, Kuwaiti Professor Abdallah Al-Nafisi addressed a gathering in Bahrain. His remarks were broadcast by Al Jazeera TV out of Qatar. The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) captured the video and posted it on their website with a translation of the professors comments. In his remarks, Professor Nafisi advocates the smuggling of anthrax into the US via the US/Mexico border to be used in an attack on the White House. He also advocates and prays for the future success of an attack on a nuclear power plant in Michigan. Videos and commentary such as this make the strongest case for the control of illegal immigration and securing the southen border of the US.

Rush Limbaugh Interviews Brewer on SB 1070
Conservative talk radio commentator Rush Limbaugh publishes a monthly newsletter known as the Limbaugh Letter that is mailed out to subscribers worldwide. One of the trademarks of the Limbaugh Letter is a one on one interview between Rush and a prominent political figure. In the August 2010 edition of the Limbaugh Letter, Rush interviews Arizona Governor Jan Brewer on SB 1070. Included in the article are photos of the signing of SB 1070 with PLEA and numerous other APA assciations from around Arizona in attendance. Perhaps what is more telling is who isn't in the photos.

PLEA speaks in Houston on SB 1070
PLEA was invited by the 5,000 member Houston Police Officers Union to speak to them and community leaders on Arizona's SB 1070 and illegal immigration problem. So far, the trip has been very productive as Houston and the State of Texas are facing their own problems relating to illegal immigration. The State of Texas is considering adopting a similar law to Arizona's SB 1070.
Listen Now! to comments aired on the Mike Broomhead show regarding PLEA's visit to Houston TX.
