I hope we turn the lights out on LA and see what they have to say about their boycott against Arizona.
Dear Mayor Villaraigosa,
I was dismayed to learn that the Los Angeles City Council voted to boycott Arizona and Arizona-based companies ? a vote you strongly supported ? to show opposition to SB 1070 (Support our Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhoods Act).
You explained your support of the boycott as follows: ?While we recognize that as neighbors, we share resources and ties with the State of Arizona that may be difficult to sever, our goal is not to hurt the local economy of Los Angeles, but toimpact the economy of Arizona. Our intent is to use our dollars ? or the withholding of our dollars ? to send a message.? (emphasis added)
I received your message; please receive mine. As a state-wide elected member of the Arizona Corporation Commission overseeing Arizona?s electric and water utilities, I too am keenly aware of the ?resources and ties? we share with the City of Los Angeles.
Rest of the story here:
