Obviously - unless LA ‘overpaid’ on those “$8 million” worth of contracts, they’re going to decide to go and PAY HIGHER (somewhere else). So, you’re screwed again California fans by your brilliant marxist-racist politicians!

LA gets much of their electricity from AZ. This could be amusing.

This cuts both ways. If I was Brewer, I'd immediately sign an executive order prohibiting doing business with any company in the state of California. It probably wouldn't hold up under scrutiny, but the point would be made.

California is in MUCH worse financial condition than AZ.

The usurper in the WH is thrilled to sit back and watch the crumbling of our union.

Good for Arizona. If they are getting goods from LA, they are paying too much, and the goods are probably the product of illegal labor. If Arizona is selling something to LA on credit, they probably won’t get paid anyhow. This is a win/win for Arizona.

They are probably just issuing IOUs now, anyway. Might be a great break for AZ.

This is all for show. Until they stop taking AZ water and power, this is a dumbshow for the groundlings. Pay those people no mind and give them no attention, they’re clearly too deeply ashamed of themselves to even bother making sense anymore.

Symbolic at best. Symbolic of what, I’m not sure. Stupidity? Mexican Nationalism? Misdirection? Boredom?

That’s a few million illegals from LA that won’t be traveling to Arizona then, right?

Ahem....doesn’t AZ provide LA with a LOT of its water and power? Wouldn’t take much of a counter action to bring LA to its knees. AZ owns LA.

I know I have to spell it out so I will...

LA does this because they want to stop Arizona from causing more illegals to go to LA.

There. I just saved myself a few responses.

Does that include the ELECTRICITY they buy from Arizona, as well??

Or will the Hypocrites still do that to avoid rolling blackouts in the heat of an LA summer??
