Counties Protest State Budget
Elected officials from Gila County and Arizona’s 14 other counties have joined forces to protest the state budget passed by the State Senate. In a series of letters to lawmakers and in committee testimony, officials protested provisions of the budget that would shift state costs and responsibilities to counties.
These include funding the state Motor Vehicle Division; paying incarceration costs for state prisoners sentenced to less than a year; and funding the Department of Public Safety through a diversion of county road building and maintenance money.
The counties say this would have a catastrophic impact on them, including their ability to provide law enforcement and criminal justice services.

Food Prices Expected to Rise
While gasoline prices continue to rise, it looks like higher food prices are going to be next.
The US Department of Agriculture predicts that retail food prices will rise 3.5% in the US this year. But the Arizona Republic reports that the recent jump in wholesale food prices could be a preview of much higher retail prices.
Arizona Food Marketing Alliance President Tim McCabe says he thinks Arizona food prices could increase between 5 and 6 percent this year. That could beat the 5.5% jump in 2008, the largest increase in almost 20 years.
