PHOENIX — The Flagstaff City Council passed a resolution to oppose a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border and to not do business with companies that design, finance and construct a border wall.

Hundreds of miles away from the border, Councilmember Eva Putzova authored the action during Tuesday night's council meeting. The council approved the resolution on a 7-2 vote.

"There's nothing ethical about procuring services from companies that profit from essentially the death of people," Putzova said at the meeting. "Speak with our money but at the end of the day we're not going to resolve the underlying problem. Why this wall is being built?"

Putznova had tweeted out Monday that the council would be passing the agenda item.

At a council meeting two weeks ago, councilmen Charlie Odegaard and Scott Overton opposed going ahead with the resolution.

The Arizona Daily Sun reported that the president of the Arizona Chapter of the Associated General Contractors wrote the council and described the move as unconstitutional, limited competition and could cost taxpayers more money.

A year ago, the group disapproved of a similar measure passed in Tucson.

The Tempe City Council was expected to vote on adopting an anti-border wall resolution at Thursday's meeting.

And then this one:

Political bombshell, in a few days Luis Videgaray will arrive as the new general coordinator of the Meade campaign!

http://www.elregionaldesonora.com.mx/noticia/72025

* The first replacements begin in the campaign of the PRI candidate for the presidency of the republic, Aurelio Nuño did not improve anything, as Meade is still very low in the polls.

By Jose "Pepe" Alvarado

Hermosillo, Son.- And we get very reliable information from Mexico City that already in the campaign for presidency of the republic there is much concern because and its (PRI) candidate Jose Antonio Meade has not elevated his candidacy and time is passing, for all this the president of the republic apparently already made the decision to first relieve the general coordinator of campaign Aurelio Nuño and instead appoint the still secretary of foreign relations Luis Videgaray as replacement of Aurelio Nuño.

And the gossips say that all this is a great move of the boss in Mexico because if in a few days Meade does not rise and continues below in the polls, Luis Videgaray could be the replacement candidate for Meade, so they could be the relays that the Lord in Mexico is preparing, in case the current candidate does not rise in the polls in the coming days, so could get Luis Videgaray first as general campaign coordinator and then as the new candidate of the PRI to the presidency of the republic.
