The dark money issue is what Burns sued APS over. The lawsuit was filed in 2015 and the case worked its way through the court system from Superior Court to Appellate Court to the Arizona Supreme Court where it was heard in February 2022, a ruling is still pending. APS/Pinnacle West hid $10.7 million dark money in private non-profit organizations to fund campaign support to get two individuals elected to the Corporation Commission (ACC) in the 2014 election cycle. APS later filed a rate case in 2017 where APS requested a significant rate increase with a re-designed rate structure which resulted in thousands of APS customers paying unnecessary increased prices for electricity.

Deutsche in Arizona seit dem 18. Jahrhundert? Wer mag denn schon vor 200 Jahren aus Deutschland (D, A, CH, LI, etc.) nicht nur in die Neue Welt ausgewandert, sondern dann sogar bis in den Südwesten gelangt sein? Einerseits haben wir natürlich die Fantasiewelt von Karl May, aber andererseits gibt es viele Belege dafür, dass deutschsprachige Missionare und viele andere durchweg die frühe Geschichte Arizonas bestimmt haben. Es geht um die lokale und die globale Geschichte zugleich.
