“AHPA is a strong voice at the Legislature and has worked hand in hand with us in ensuring that pay increases for Patrol Officers have been included in the budget these last two years,.”
- State Senate President Ken Bennett

“I’ve always been a strong supporter of AHPA and the Department, and they’ve done a great job. A lot of the legislation that went through wouldn’t have gone though if it hadn’t been for the Association and the people they hire to represent their positions.”
- House Speaker Jim Weiers

“After several years of negotiating and working at the Legislature, the AHPA and APA were able to get their message to Members recognizing what law enforcement is able to do on a day to day basis.”
- House Speaker Pro Tem Bob Robson

“It is because of Andy’s integrity and dedication that I have chosen to work closely with him to pass important legislation for the benefit of your members and ultimately the citizens of Arizona.”
- State Representative Russell Pearce

“AHPA was instrumental in fighting for a 'Meet and Confer' bill that included all DPS employees.  Without AHPA's hard work, civilians would have been left out of the process.”
- State Senator John Huppenthal

“AHPA is one of the most respected organizations that lobby at the Capitol … We have worked on the [pay parity bill] for many years now and I’m convinced the AHPA made the difference this year … [and on] the Meet and Confer Bill … because of the AHPA we were finally able to get that bill passed and signed into law.”
- State Representative Marian McClure

“I work with Andy extensively … I must talk to him 3 or 4 times a week. That’s very helpful to someone like me … it’s a resource for us … and I think he had pretty good success last year.”
- State Senator Jim Waring
