>> COMING UP NEXT ON ARIZONA HORIZON: THE IMPACT OF ALL THINGS TARIFFS COMING OUT OF THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION... ALSO TONIGHT: HOW AI IS BEING PUT TO USE BY THE ARIZONA SUPREME COURT... AND, BUTTERFLY SCULPTURES RAISE FUNDS AND AWARENESS FOR ISSUES INVOLVING HOMELESSNESS.

THOSE STORIES AND MORE, NEXT, ON ARIZONA HORIZON.

>> GOOD EVENING, AND WELCOME TO ARIZONA HORIZON.

I'M TED SIMONS.

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER ROUND OF VOLATILITY ON WALL STREET.

THE MARKET TOOK A NOSE-DIVE AMID CONCERNS ABOUT THE WORSENING TRADE WAR WITH CHINA, SPECIFICALLY THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION TODAY CLARIFYING THAT THE PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED 125% TARIFF ON IMPORTS FROM CHINA WAS IN ADDITION TO A 20% TARIFF ALREADY IMPOSED.

THE RESULT WAS ANOTHER FREE-FALL ON WALL STREET.

THE DOW WAS DOWN OVER A THOUSAND POINTS, OR 2.5%; NASDEQ WAS DOWN 4.3%, AND THE S&P FELL 3.5% PERCENT.

DEMOCRATS ON CAPITOL HILL ARE INCREASINGLY SAYING THAT THE STRIKING UPS AND DOWNS ON WALL STREET NEED AN INVESTIGATION FOR POSSIBLE STOCK MANIPULATION.

>> WE NEED TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF OF THE POSSIBLE STOCK NATION IS UNFOLDING BEFORE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, INCLUDING, WHAT IF ANY, ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE DID MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE REPUBLICAN CONFERENCE HAVE OF TRUMP'S DECISION TO PAUSE THE RECKLESS TARIFFS THAT HE PUT INTO PLACE.

>> ARIZONA CONGRESSMAN RUBEN GALLEGO TODAY SENT A LETTER TO PRESIDENT TRUMP'S CHIEF OF STAFF ASKING FOR AN INVESTIGATION INTO POSSIBLE INSIDER TRADING AMONG WHITE HOUSE ALLIES.

A NEW STUDY SHOWS THAT TRUMP- ADMINISTRATION TARIFFS WILL COST MIDDLE-CLASS HOUSEHOLDS $3400 A YEAR.

THE STUDY OUT OF YALE UNIVERSITY TAKES INTO ACCOUNT THE PRESIDENT'S 90-DAY PAUSE ON COUNTRY-SPECIFIC TARIFFS AND THE 145% TARIFFS ON CHINESE GOODS.

THE STUDY FOUND THAT THE TARIFFS WILL HIT LOWER-INCOME AMERICANS HARDER AS A SHARE OF THEIR TOTAL INCOME.

AND AMAZON PRICES WILL LIKELY RISE DUE TO TARIFFS.

THAT'S ACCORDING TO AMAZON'S CEO WHO SAID TODAY THAT THE ON-LINE RETAILER OF THIRD-PARTY SELLERS WILL TRY TO KEEP PRICES LOW, BUT WILL PASS ANY INCREASED COSTS ON TO CUSTOMERS.

THE CEO ADDED THAT AMAZON HAS NOT AS YET SEEN ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN CUSTOMER BEHAVIOR.

AND, THE U.S. HOUSE TODAY NARROWLY ADOPTED THE BLUEPRINT FOR A REPUBLICAN BUDGET THAT INCLUDES CUTTING TAXES AND GOVERNMENT SPENDING.

>> NOW THE REAL WORK BEGINS IN THE COMMITTEES.

WE HAVE 11 COMMITTEES IN THE HOUSE READY TO GO TO WORK NOW OVER THE NEXT TWO WEEKS, AS MEMBERS ARE IN THEIR DISTRICTS DURING EASTER, THE COMMITTEES WILL BE WORKING AND LEADERSHIP WILL BE MEETING BETWEEN THE HOUSE AND SENATE WORKING WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP ON THE DETAILS TO START THAT PROCESS THE DAY WE GET BACK SO THAT WE CAN DELIVER REAL WINS FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

>> THE BILL IS PASSED AFTER GETTING CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICANS TO END THEIR HOLD-OUT.

DEMOCRATS WERE AGAINST THE PLAN DUE TO CONCERNS OVER MASSIVE CUTS OVER SOCIAL PROGRAMS LIKE SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICAID, BUT HOUSE SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON, THIS IS HIS RESPONSE.

>> WE HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO GET OUR COUNTRY BACK ON A SOUND FISCAL TRAJECTORY AND ALSO MAKE SURE THAT WE ENSURE AND PROTECT THE ESSENTIAL PROGRAMS.

THE DEMOCRATS, AS I NOTED THIS MORNING, HAVE SAID THAT WE'RE GOING TO GUT MEDICAID.

IT IS NOT TRUE.

WE'RE GOING TO PROTECT THE BENEFITS THAT EVERYONE IS LEGALLY ENTITLED TO.

THE BENEFICIARIES WHO HAVE A LEGAL RIGHT TO THAT, IT WILL BE PRESERVED.

IS THERE ESSENTIAL SAFETY NET PROGRAMS THAT THE PRESIDENT SUPPORTS.

THEth HAS MADE CLEAR, SOCIAL SECURITY, MEDICARE, MEDICAID WILL NOT TAKE A HIT.

SO YOU CAN COUNT ON THAT AND WATCH IT DEVELOP AS WE GO.

>> APPROVAL OF THE PLAN IS CONSIDERED A VICTORY FOR REPUBLICAN LEADERS AND PRESIDENT TRUMP.

AND AS WE MENTIONED, THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION TODAY CLARIFIED THE TARIFFS IMPORTEDS FROM 29 CHINA ARE NOW $125%.

AND IT'S RAISING CONCERNS FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF A RE RECESSION.

THE BILL WAS PASSED AFTER GETTING CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICANS TO END THEIR HOLDOUT.

FOR MORE ON THAT, WE WELCOME EDDIE DAVILA, ASSISTANT CHAIR OF THE DEPARTMENT OF SUPPLY CHAIN AT ASU'S W.P.

CAREY SCHOOL OF BUSINESS.

WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF ALL THIS?

>> IT'S CHAOS.

WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO THINK?

THINGS CHANGE -- MAYBE WE SHOULD CHECK OUR PHONE RIGHT NOW TO SEE IF THINGS CHANGED AGAIN.

BUT I LIKE TO TELL PEOPLE, SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGERS, WE'RE PEOPLE TOO, AND SO WHEN I CAME OPTION ARISE INSIDE YOUR HOME, AT WORK, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

SOME PEOPLE PANIC.

SOME PEOPLE FREEZE UP.

SOME PEOPLE MAKE A CHAOTIC PLAN.

SOME PEOPLE SLOW DOWN, AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING OUT THERE RIGHT NOW WITH SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGERS.

THEY'RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT'S THE BEST THING TO DO IN THIS MOMENT, AND MAYBE WHAT'S GONNA BE THE BEST THING TO DO TOMORROW.

>> ARE THERE CERTAIN SECTORS THAT YOU SEE BEING AFFECTED MOST BY THESE TARIFF AS SOON AS.

>> MOST IS PROBABLY GOING TO BE THOSE THAT WILL BE THINGS COMING IN FROM CHINA.

SO THOSE WILL BE YOUR ELECTRONIC GOODS, YOUR INDUSTRY GOODS, PERHAPS A LITTLE BIT OF CLOTHING.

BUT IT'S REALLY GONNA BE THOSE ELECTRONICS THAT WE BRING IN.

>> WHEN THESE TARIFFS HIT, IF THESE -- I MEAN, GOODNESS GRACIOUS, WE DON'T KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO HIT AND HOW AND WHY.

BUT WHEN THEY HIT, AS THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION SEEMS TO WANT AND SEEMS TO HAVE DESIGNED, DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF SUPPLY CHAIN, WHETHER IT'S TRANSPORTATION, WHETHER IT'S STORAGE, THESE TYPE THINGS.

WHAT HAPPENS THERE?

>> THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION BECAUSE THE FIRST THING WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND IS THAT ULTIMATELY THIS FIRST PHASE, THE TARIFF IS GOING TO IMPACT THE PRICE OF BRINGING IT INTO THE COUNTRY ALONE.

A LOT OF THE ARCHITECT TOUR OF YOUR SUPPLY CHAIN ISN'T GOING TO BE -- LIKE IT'S NOT GOING TO BE DISRUPTED RIGHT AWAY.

BUT DOWN THE LINE AS THE PRICE OF ALL OF YOUR INGREDIENTS CHANGE, AS THE PRICE OF LABOR CHANGES, AS THE PRICE OF FUEL CHANGES, THAT'S WHEN WE'RE GOING TO SEE A LOT OF THOSE CHANGES.

BUT FOR RIGHT NOW, I THINK IN THE NEXT TWO OR THREE MONTHS, DEPENDING ON THE INDUSTRY THAT YOU'RE IN, WE'RE GONNA SEE CHANGES HAPPENING MOSTLY JUST TO THAT PRICE.

BUT WAIT AND SEE FOR WHAT HAPPENS NEXT.

>> SO IF YOU WORK AT A PORT, IF YOU'RE A TRUCK DRIVER, THESE SORTS OF THINGS, WHAT ARE YOU EXPECT SOMETHING IN.

>> I THINK THERE'S SOME PEOPLE IN ARE VERY AFRAID OF SOME OF THESE PORTS.

I SPOKE WITH SOMEBODY FROM THE PORT OF SEATTLE JUST A COUPLE DAYS AGO, AND THEY HAVE ALREADY BEEN SEEING SOME PULLBACK IN THE AMOUNT OF THINGS THAT ARE HEADING UP TO THE NORTHWEST.

THE THINGS THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO COMPORT OUT OF THERE AND THE THINGS THAT THEY BRING IN THROUGH THAT PORT, THERE'S GONNA BE SOME RADICAL CHANGES IN THAT AREA, AND I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF FEAR AT SOME OF THESE PORTS THAT THEY'RE GONNA SEE THE NUMBER OF CALLS THAT COME IN, DROP SIGNIFICANTLY, AND REALLY IMPACT NOT JUST THE GOODS THAT ARE GOING IN AND OUT, BUT ALSO, AS YOU SAID, THE TRUCKING COMMUNITY, THE RAIL COMMUNITY, THE WAREHOUSING COMMUNITY, AND THAT'S WHY I WAS SAYING WE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN WITH THAT, THAT'S GOING TO ROLL OUT OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS.

>> ARE YOU WORRIED OR CONCERNED?

I MEAN, ARIZONA'S CLOSE TO CALIFORNIA.

WE'RE CLOSE TO THESE PORTS, ESPECIALLY, THEY'RE REALIGNED THROUGH ARIZONA.

I MEAN, ARE ARIZONA INDUSTRIES IN GENERAL AND CERTAIN SECTORS IN PARTICULAR GOING TO BE AFFECTED ABOUT I THIS?

>> THE WEST SIDE VERY MUCH TIED TO WHAT'S GOING ON AT THE L.A. AND LONG BEACH PORTS.

IT'S STRATEGY CLEO OH I MEAN, THE REASON THAT IT'S THERE IS ABOUT A SIX-HOUR DRIVE FROM THE PORT OF L.A.

SO THE THINGS THAT ARE GOING TO BE HAPPENING IN THE PORT OF L.A. AND LONG BEACH ULTIMATELY WILL REVERBERATE TO THE WEST SIDE, TO THE RAIL THAT'S GOING THROUGH THERE.

SO THAT'S DEFINITELY GOING TO HAPPEN.

WHAT THE IMPACT IS GOING TO BE, I DON'T KNOW.

IT DEPENDS ON WHETHER ORGANIZATIONS CHOOSE TO BUY AHEAD.

YOU KNOW WHAT, WE JUST PULLED BACK 90 DAYS ON THESE TARIFFS, MAYBE WE SHOULD GO AHEAD AND BUY A LOT OF THINGS RIGHT NOW, AND IF WE DO, THAT'S GONNA IMPACT AMOUNT OF GOODS THAT WILL BE STORED ON THE WEST SIDE.

ON THE OTHER HAND, IF ORGANIZATIONS TAKE A WAIT-AND-SEE APPROACH, THEN WE MAY SEE THINGS STAY A LITTLE BIT SORT OF WHERE THEY'RE AT RIGHT NOW.

>> ARE THERE ASPECTS OF ALL OF THIS, THOUGH, WHERE THE DAMAGE HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE?

>> OH, FOR SURE.

AS I SAID, PEOPLE ARE OUT THERE TRYING TO MAKE DECISIONS ABOUT SUPPLIERS.

IF I'M MANUFACTURING IN THE UNITED STATES AND USING A SUPPLIER THAT'S IN CHINA, AND THAT SUPPLIER AND I HAVE BEEN WORKING TOGETHER FOR 10 YEARS, 20 YEARS, WE HAVE A REALLY CLOSE RELATIONSHIP.

FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS, WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO DECIDE, DO WE WANT TO CONTINUE TO WORK TOGETHER, AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TARIFFS ARE -- WITH, AND LET'S NOT USE CHINA AS AN EXAMPLE BECAUSE THOSE HAVE BEEN RAISED.

BUT IF I'M WORKING WITH A SUPPLIER IN VIETNAM, LET'S SAY, AND I HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH THEM, THAT RELATIONSHIP HAS BEEN DISRUPTED.

I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN USE YOU ANYMORE.

OH, WAIT, I CAN USE YOU.

BUT NOW WITH THAT 90-DAY HOLDOVER FOR THESE NEXT 90 DAYS, I THINK THAT THEY'RE EXPLORING OTHER OPTIONS, AND I'M EXPLORING OTHER OPTIONS TOO BECAUSE WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.

>> DO YOU HAVE OTHER OPTIONS?

IF THE WIN SATURDAY YOU'RE MAKING REQUIRES ALL OF THESE THINGS FROM VIETNAM, FROM CAMBODIA AND ALL OF THESE PLACES AND NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TARIFFS HAVE GONE UP OR YOU DON'T KNOW IF THEY'RE GONNA GO UP OR NOT, WHERE DO YOU 91.

>> THERE MAY NOT BE AN OPTION IN THE SHORT RUN BUT YOU START TO EXPLORE OPTIONS OF THINGS YOU CAN DO IN THE LONG RUN OR START TO LOOK FOR SUBSTITUTES OR PERHAPS YOU START TO FIGURE OUT HOW YOU CAN OFF-SET SOME OF THE COSTS THAT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO INCUR IF YOU CONTINUE TO USE THAT SUPPLIER.

>> DOES THAT PROVE THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S POINT, THOUGH, THAT AMERICA IS TOO DEPENDENT ON SOME OF THESE OFFSHORE AREAS, THAT THINGS THAT ARE MADE IN VIETNAM AND CAMBODIA AND THAILAND SHOULD BE MADE IN AMERICA?

>> IT'S POSSIBLE.

BUT AT THE SAME TIME, YOU'RE ALSO LOOKING AT IT FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF, ARE WE TOO DEPENDENT ON THAT?

IF WE WANT A WORLD WHERE WE MAKE EVERYTHING OURSELVES, THEN THAT'S POSSIBLE.

BUT IF ON THE OTHER HAND, WE'RE LOOKING AT RAISING THE AMOUNT OF DISPOSABLE INCOME THAT WE, HAVE BUYING THE ELECTRONICS THAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO FOR THE LAST FEW DECADES, GETTING CARS AND HAVING ALL OF THE CHOICE, WELL, THEN WE'RE GOING TO LOSE SOME OF THAT ALONG THE WAY, AND THAT'S KIND OF THE TRADE-OFF THAT WE'RE MAKING.

DO WE WANT SOMETHING THAT'S MORE SELF-SUFFICIENT OR WOULD WE RATHER HAVE MORE CHOICE.

>> SO THIS BASICALLY IS A FUNDAMENTAL SHIFT IN TRADE AND IN POWER FLOWS?

THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING RIGHT NOW, ISN'T?

>> THAT IS WHAT IS ATTEMPTING TO HAPPEN.

BUT AGAIN WITH THE BACK AND FORTH OF, LET'S HAVE TARIFFS, LET'S NOT HAVE TARIFFS, LET'S INCREASE THEM, LET'S NOT HAVE THEM BE AS HIGH, IT REALLY CREATES TENSION INSIDE THE SUPPLY CHAIN FOR YOUR BUSINESS LEADERS TO KNOW WHAT EXACT -- WHAT SIGNAL ARES SENDING TO ME AND WHAT EXACTLY DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?

>> AND LAST QUESTION, AT WHAT POINT DOES THE ON AGAIN, UP A AGAIN, YES, NO, HERE IT IS, THERE IT IS, NOW IT'S GONE AGAIN -- AT WHAT POINT DOES BUSINESS OR CAN BUSINESS SUPERSEDE THIS AND SAY WE'RE GOING TO DO WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO BECAUSE THEY CAN'T MAKE UP THEIR MINDS?

>> I THINK WE'RE SEEING A LITTLE BIT OF THAT ALREADY.

I THINK SOME ORGANIZATIONS ARE TRYING TO MAKE THESE SHORT-TERM DECISIONS OF LET'S BUY A LOT OF INVENTORY, LET'S START MOVING OUR SUPPLIERS, AND THERE'S A LOT OF ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE SAYING, YOU KNOW WHAT, LET'S JUST KEEP BUSINESS GOING IN THIS DIRECTION.

MAYBE WE'RE PLANNING IN THE BACK ROOM FOR ALTERNATIVES BUT WHY SHAKE UP THE SUPPLY CHAIN AT THIS POINT IN TIME WHEN WE DON'T EXACTLY KNOW WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN THREE MONTHS, SIX MONTHS OR A YEAR FROM NOW.

>> EDDIE DAVILA, ASU'S WP CAREY SCHOOL OF BUSINESS, THANKS FOR BEING HERE.

>> THANKS FOR HAVING ME.

>> YOU BET.

>>> THE ARIZONA SUPREME COURT IS USING NEW AI AVATAR TECHNOLOGY TO HELP COMMUNICATE BETTER WITH THE PUBLIC.

TAKE A LOOK: I'M DABBLE ONE OF THE NEW AI REPORTERS, YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING WHY AN AI-GENERATED SPOKESPERSON LIKE ME IS SHARING THE NEWS.

THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE, WE WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND THE COURT AND ITS DECISIONS BETTER AND WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU GET ACCURATE INFORMATION DIRECTLY FROM NEWS A TIMELY WAY.

TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE SUPREME COURT'S USE OF AI TECHNOLOGY.

WE WELCOME STATE SUPREME COURT CHIEF JUSTICE, ANN SCOTT TIMMER.

GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

>> THANKS FOR HAVING ME.

>> WHAT WE JUST WATCHED, THAT'S NOT REAL.

>> IT'S NOT REAL.

HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT?

>> IT'S A LITTLE TERRIFYING.

IT LOOKS SO REAL, WHICH IS CONTRACT VERY FIRST THING THESE REPORTERS SAY IS WE'RE AI-GENERATED.

>> OKAY.

WHY GO THIS PARTICULAR SNOUT.

>> WELL, THIS IS SOMETHING I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT FOR A WHILE.

THE COURT HAS BEEN WANTING TO DO, IS GET OUT AND COMMUNICATE MORE DIRECTLY WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN OUR DECISIONS, AND WHATEVER ELSE WE'RE UP TO WITH WHAT WE'RE DOING.

SO TRY TO NOT RELY ON THE MEDIA TO REPORT OUR DECISIONS.

SO WE NOW DO PRESS RELEASES TO EXPLAIN WHAT A DECISION IS ABOUT IN MORE LAYPERSON'S TERMS, BUT I WANTED VIDEO, BECAUSE VIDEO IS WHERE PEOPLE GET THEIR NEWS.

THEY DON'T HAVE TIME TO READ THROUGH THIS STUFF.

SO WE WERE THINKING ABOUT PEOPLE TO USE AND WHAT SHOULD WE DO, AND OUR PO SAID HEY, WE CAN GET AVATARS TO DO IT, AND WE WERE SOLD.

>> AND THAT WAS DANIEL, CORRECT?

>> THAT WAS DANIEL.

>> AND VICTORIA IS ALSO AN AI GENERATION?

>> SHE'S NOT REAL EITHER?

>> SHE'S NOT REAL EITHER.

>> WHO PUTS THE WORDS IN THEIR MOUTH?

ARE THEY JUST MAKING THIS STUFF UP?

>> NO.

THIS IS NOT USE OF GENERATIVE AI TO DIE SECRETARY OUR OPINIONS TO COME UP WITH WHAT THEY THINK IS LEFT.

THIS SOME COOLING RIGHT FROM THE JUSTICE SYSTEM ITSELF, OURSELVES.

SO WE WRITE -- WHOEVER THE AUTHORING JUSTICE IS FOR AN OPINION WILL OFFER THE FIRST STAB AT A PRESS RELEASE, AND YOU WILL OF A THE JUSTICES ON THE COURT MUST APPROVE THAT AND ALSO APPROVE A VOICE SCRIPT FOR THE AVATAR TO SPEAK.

SO REALLY YOU'RE HEARING OUR VOICES THROUGH THESE AVATARS.

>> BUT WHY AGAIN USE THE AVATAR WHEN EVERYTHING YOU SAID COULD HAVE BEEN DONE BUT A REAL HUMAN BEING?

>> WELL, YOU CAN'T DO IT AS QUICKLY.

WE FOUND THAT OUT.

SINCE DO YOU TV, YOU KNOW IT TAKES A WHILE TO MAKE A PRODUCTION.

IT TAKES A THAT WHILE MAYBE HAVE TAKE 1, TAKE 2, WE WOULD NEVER HOLD UP AN OPINION WAITING FOR THE PERSON TO BE AVAILABLE TO BE ABLE TO BE THE SPOKESPERSON.

SO WITH THIS, IT CAN BE FED IN TO A COMPUTER.

IT TAKES 20 MINUTES TO COME OUT.

I'M ALSO HOPING TO BE ABLE TO POSSIBLY DO THIS IN OTHER LANGUAGES, IN SPANISH, THAT KIND OF THING.

SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE COULD -- WE'RE SET FOR THE FOUNT EXPLORE FOR NOW.

>> AND THOSE ARE THINGS THAT CAN TURN ON A DIME BECAUSE THIS TECHNOLOGY.

>> EXACTLY.

>> YEAH.

THE COURT'S RULING ON THE 19th CENTURY ABORTION LAW, THERE WAS A LOT OF REPORTING ON THAT.

THERE WAS SOME CONFUSION.

HOW MUCH OF THIS IS BECAUSE OF THAT?

>> NOT MUCH.

I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS.

I STARRED MY TERM AS CHIEF JUSTICE IN JULY, AND IT WAS IMMEDIATELY PART OF OUR STRATEGIC AGENT TO DO MORE IN PROMOTING PEOPLE'S FAITH AND CONFIDENCE IN THE COURTS, WHICH INCLUDES LETTING THEM KNOW WHAT WE DO.

I'LL HAVE TO TELL YOU WITH THE ABORTION DECISION, I DID HAVE THE THOUGHT, THINKING, GOSH, I WISH WE HAD THESE THINGS PLACE NOW WITH THE -- IN RETROSPECT, OUR OWN KIND OF A SUMMARY, DISTILLING WHAT THIS OPINION MEANS, WHAT IT DOESN'T MEAN, HERE'S THE KEY TAKE-AWAY, THAT KIND OF THING, AND WITH A VIDEO IT WOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT.

>> DID YOU THINK, JUST OUT OF CURIOSITY, DID YOU THINK THE COURT MISHANDLED THAT NARRATIVE A BIT?

>> MISHANDLED IS A STRONG TERM.

I WISH WE HAD THE INSTATE TO DO THIS KIND OF THING SOONER.

>> SO NOW VICTORIA AND DANIEL, THEY BEING USED NOW?

>> YES.

>> SO THEY'RE ALREADY WORKING.

>> IF YOU GO TO YOUR WEBSITE TODAY, YOU WILL SEE NEWSROOM WITH THEIR LITTLE PICTURES ON IT, AND YOU CAN CLICK ON IT, AND FOR EVERY DECISION THAT COMES OUT, I THINK WE HAVE A NEW CASE COMING OUT TOMORROW, IT WILL ISSUE SIMULTANEOUSLY THE OPINION, THE NEWS RELEASE, AND THEN YOU CAN JUST SEE WHAT'S ABOUT FROM ONE OF THEM.

>> SO EVERY SINGLE DECISION YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE THESE FOLKS -- THESE AVATARS DOING THEIR BUSINESS?

>> YES, EVERY SINGLE ONE.

>> WOW.

WAS THERE MUCH TO BAIT AMONG THE JUSTICES ABOUT THIS?

WAS THERE ANY LIKE DISCOURAGING WORDS OR WAIT A MINUTE, LET'S HOLD OFF HERE?

>> NO.

NO DISCOURAGING WORDS.

I THINK WE'RE ALL VERY COGNIZANT OF THE FACT THAT WE NEED TO BE BETTER AT COMMUNICATING WITH PEOPLE DIRECTLY AND ACCURATELY ABOUT WHAT OUR OPINIONS SAY.

SO THIS WAS FULLY EMBRACED BY EVERYONE.

>> AND IS THERE PLANS NOW FOR THE FUTURE, THE USE OF AI IN DIFFERENT FORMS, DIFFERENT WAYS?

KIND OF REFERRED TO THIS EARLIER, BUT TO EXPAND THE ROLE OF AI IN DIFFERENT WAYS?

>> SURE.

WE USE IT NOW QUITE A BIT.

WE JUST LAUNCHED SOMETHING THAT BUILT A BOT THAT WILL HELP PEOPLE WHO HAVE TRAFFIC TICKETS, FOR EXAMPLE.

IF YOU WANT TO BE WALKED THROUGH, THIS IS WHAT I NEED, HOW DO DO I PAY A TRAFFIC TICKET, IT'S MORE PERSONALIZED.

WE HAVE SOMETHING CALLED GAVEL WHICH WILL WALK YOU THROUGH WHERE YOU NEED TO GO.

I'D LIKE TO DO MORE WITH THE AVATARS FOR TEACHING PEOPLE.

SO WE'RE ALSO GOING TO BE USING THEM -- WE'LL GET A THIRD AVATAR, NO NAME YET, WHICH WILL TEACH YOU AND HELP YOU OUT WHEN YOU'RE HELPING YOURSELF IN COURT.

>> CHIEF JUSTICE ANN SCOTT TIMOR, ARIZONA SUPREME COURT, GOOD TO HAVE YOU HERE, GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

YOU'RE THE REAL THING.

>> THIS IS ME.

I KNOW, IT'D LOOK BETTER IF IT WASN'T ME.

>> DOUBLE-CHECKING.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

PHOENIX ROTARY 100 AND LOCAL ARTISTS CREATED BUTTERFLY SCULPTURES TO RAISE FUNDS AND HIGHLIGHT THE CHALLENGES OF THOSE FACING HOMELESSNESS.

WE RECENTLY LEARNED MORE ABOUT THE EVENT FROM DANIEL CAPOTE, CHAIR AND CLUB PRESIDENT OF PHOENIX ROTARY 100, AND LISA HENNING, CO-CHAIR AND BOARD MEMBER.

>>> THANK YOU BOTH FOR JOINING US ON ARIZONA HORIZON.

GOOD TO HAVE YOU BOTH.

DAN, WE'LL START WITH YOU.

TAKE FLIGHT.

WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT?

>> SO TAKE FLIGHT, YOU KNOW, WE'RE PART OF PHOENIX ROTARY 100.

AND THIS IS THE SECOND -- WE'RE THE SECOND ANNUAL EVENT.

IT'S A FUNDRAISER WHERE WE'VE GOT ABOUT 40 ARTISTS AROUND THE VALLEY, MAKING 50 DIFFERENT BUTTERFLIES, AND THERE'S ALL DIFFERENT SIZES, THESE ARE THE SMALLEST ONES, AND IT'S USED TO BE A FUNDRAISER AND TO HELP US WITH SOME OF THE GRANTS AND HOW WE DO COMMUNITY SERVICE.

>> AND THE IDEA OF BUTTERFLIES REPRESENTING PEOPLE IN TRANCE MISSION?

IS THAT CORRECT?

>> YES, TRANSFORMATION.

SO A LOT OF OUR CLUB FOCUSES ON IMPACTING HOMELESSNESS IN THE COMMUNITY, AND WE FEEL THAT PEOPLE GOING THROUGH HOMELESSNESS ARE IN A STRONG PERIOD OF TRANSITION IN THEIR LIVES, SO BUTTERFLIES REPRESENT OBVIOUSLY GREAT TRANSFORMATION AND INSPIRATION AND HOPEFULLY SOMETHING MOTIVATING TO PEOPLE TO BE IMPACTFUL IN THEIR JOURNEY.

>> AND AGAIN, YOU HAVE ARTISTS, OKAY, THEY'RE JUST BEGIN A BLANK PIECE OF METAL?

>> YEAH, WE PROVIDE -- THESE ARE ACTUALLY STAINLESS STEEL OR STEEL.

AND WE GIVE THEM THE BLANK METAL.

SO THEY JUST LOOK LIKE SILVER METAL WHEN WE GAVE THEM TO THEM.

THEY HAVE CARTE BLANCHE TO DO WHATEVER THEY WANT.

YOU KNOW, WE'VE GOT TWO SAMPLES HERE, ONE HAS GOT BLOWN GLASS AND ONE HAS GOT TILE.

BUT A LOT OF THEM ARE PAINTED.

THERE'S PEOPLE THAT PUT WOOD ON THEM.

THERE'S PEOPLE IN HAVE DONE -- WELDED EXTRA METAL ON THEM.

THEY CAN KIND OF DO WHAT THEY WANT.

>> AND THESE ARE THE SMALLEST ONES, CORRECT?

>> THESE ARE THE SMALLEST ONES, THERE'S A 30 INCH VISION AND A 40 INCH VERSION AND THOSE GO ON STAKES IN YOUR YARD.

>> OKAY I BET THEY DO.

HOW DO YOU FIGURE OUT WHICH ARTIST WILL PARTICIPATE?

>> WELL, WE HAVE A STRONG ARTIST COMMUNITY, WHICH IS FABULOUS.

AND DAN AND I ACTUALLY JUST DID A LOT OF POUNDING THE PAVEMENT IN OLD TOWN ON MAIN STREET AND REALLY JUST GOING IN TO GALLERIES AND ASKING THEM AND THE PEOPLE THAT THEY HIGHLIGHT IF THEY'D BE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING, WE'VE HAD SUCH A WONDERFUL RESPONSE TO ARTISTS GETTING ON BOARD AND BEING CHARITABLE AND EVEN RECOMMENDING OTHER PEOPLE THEY KNEW AND THEIR FRIENDS.

SO WE HAVE A LOT OF REPEAT ARTISTS IN OUR SECOND YEAR, AND THEN EVEN THEM BRINGING OTHER FRIENDS TO THE TABLE, SAYING, HEY, WE HAVE SOMEONE THAT WOULD WANT TO DO THIS, SO WE FELT GRADUATEFUL.

>> AND WE WARRANT -- THE SCHUMER FAMILY IS ACTUALLY PART OF OUR CLUB, GOING WAY BACK.

BUT WE PARTNERED WITH THE ART MUSEUM, SO THEY HAVE A LOT OF ARTISTS THAT THEY WORK WITH.

SO PEOPLE HAVE HEARD ABOUT IT THROUGH THERE, AND THEY HAVE YOUTH CLASSES, AND THAT HELPED US SPREAD THE WORD, THE FIRST YEAR ESPECIALLY.

>> AND THEY'RE STILL ON DISPLAY THERE?

>> YES, THE SHIMA ART GALLERY, THE EVENT IS HELD DURING THE GARDEN BE EVENT WHICH WAS LAST WEEKEND, AND THEN WE HAVE A PRIVATE EVENT, WHICH IS THE FINAL END OF THE AUCTION THAT WAS ON SUNDAY.

BUT ALL THE BUTTERFLIES ARE ON DISPLAY THERE.

THE ONES THAT ARE LEFT ARE STILL THERE FOR A LITTLE SHORT TIME.

BUT THAT'S WHERE THEY HAVE BEEN.

>> DOT BIG ONES SELL?

THEY HAVE TO GO, BUT THEY MUST GO FOR A PRETTY PENNY, HUH?

>> DEPENDING ON THE SIZE OF YOUR YARD OR PATIO AREA, IT'S SOMEWHAT OF -- WHICH ONE YOU MIGHT CHOOSE TO BUY.

BUT THE LARGE -- IT'S FUNNY, WE HAD THE DISCUSSION LAST YEAR AT LIKE, WE ACTUALLY HAD THE PERSON -- ACTUALLY, THE COUPLE THAT BOUGHT IT LAST YEAR DECIDED TO KEEP IT INSIDE THEIR HOME.

>> ALMOST LIKE A PIECE OF ART.

>> SO AS FAR AS IT BEING OUT IN YOUR YARD, SOME PEOPLE HAVE CHOSEN TO DISPLAY IT INSIDE THEIR HOUSE AS WELL.

>> BUT THE BIG ONES CAN GO FOR AS MUCH AS A COUPLE THOUSAND BUCKS OR MORE, ONCE YOU GET IN THE AUCTION.

AND THE LITTLE ONES ARE IN THE HUNDREDS AND THE MEDIUM ONES IN THE MIDDLE RANGE.

>> TALK TO ME ABOUT ROTARY 100.

>> WE WERE THE 100th ROTARY CLUB IN THE WORLD.

THERE ARE NOW OVER 40,000.

THERE'S OVER A MILLION AROUND THE WORLD IN OVER 100 COUNTRIES.

I DON'T REMEMBER THE EXACT NUMBER.

WE'RE A SERVICE ORGANIZATION.

WE FOCUS A LOT ON VOLUNTEERING, AND A LOT ABOUT GRANTS AND GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY.

WE -- OVER THE PAST WEEKEND WE HAVE THE 94th ANNUAL SPEECH CONTEST.

WE DO THINGS WITH THE OUTSTANDING YOUNG PERSON OF THE YEAR WITH THE CITY.

WE DO A LOT WITH -- BETWEEN FOOD BANKS, JUST GIVING TO NONPROFITS, WE SUPPORT A LOT OF LOCAL NONPROFITS, SO, YOU KNOW, ROTARY IS ALL ABOUT SERVING YOUR COMMUNITY, GIVING BACK, AND THAT'S WHAT THIS IS TO RAISE FUNDS FOR.

>> AND WE SHOULD REMIND PEOPLE, AGAIN, THAT THIS IS FOR HELPING YOUTH AND THE HOMELESS AND TRANSITION AND ALL OF THESE KINDS OF THINGS.

THAT'S WHERE THE MONEY GOES AND THAT'S WHERE THE SERVICE ORGANIZATION FOCUSES.

>> EXACTLY.

>> THANK YOU BOTH FOR BEING HERE, AND CONGRATULATIONS ON A GREAT SUCCESS ONCE AGAIN WITH YOUR METAL BUTTERFLIES TAKING FLIGHT.

GOOD TO HAVE YOU BOTH HERE.

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
