Here's one way to beef up Arizona's budget

Charge prison visitors. If you want to visit a prisoner, you must pay a one-time $25 fee. This fee is labeled a “background check fee". But, occasionally, labels are meaningless. In this case, the money goes into the Building Renewal Fund. The fee was imposed as a way to get some money to fix the prisons. However, since Arizona has 40,000 prisoners, the total collected would amount to $1,000,000, which doesn't sound as though it would go very far to fix buildings.

I wonder if Sheriff Arpaio had any input on this.
