David Stringer, guest host of Prescott Talks and publisher of Prescott eNews, , discusses the lawsuit that Howard Mechanic and Ralph Hess have brought against the $15 million Legislative appropriation to Prescott Rodeo Days. The lawsuit alleges that the appropriation violates the Arizona Gift Clause law, and has other problems, such as no restrictions on how the money is to be spent.
[Editor’s Note: The President of Prescott Frontier Days, Inc. has been invited to come in and give his side of the story. We are waiting for his response.]

Thanks, David, for the informative interview! Can you follow this up with a look why the $10 million
Fountain Hills received under this same bill is not a gift?
And maybe a closer look at any other similar recipients’ situations?
Thanks, again!
