Axon

DeSantis and the Florida Cabinet approved $87 million in immigration grants for 56 local law enforcement agencies, primarily funding radios and AI systems. The grants come from a $250 million state program aimed at combating undocumented immigration, with Brevard County Sheriff’s Office receiving the largest share.

The NYPD is investigating whether a bodycam featured in a subway video was stolen. The video shows an Axon body camera, a brand used by NYPD officers for recording interactions.

Opponents of Axon's Scottsdale headquarters project, Taxpayers Against Awful Apartment Zoning Exemptions (TAAAZE), will appeal after a court ruled a state law blocking their referendum constitutional. The law, passed to prevent voter challenges to Axon's zoning change, was challenged as underinclusive but upheld by Judge Michael Herrod, who acknowledged the law's direct link to Axon's project while deeming it broadly applicable.

A Maricopa County Superior Court judge ruled a state law preventing Scottsdale residents from voting on Axon’s headquarters and housing project constitutional. The law allows cities with 200,000–500,000 residents to bypass public hearings for certain developments, benefiting Axon’s project. A group opposing the law argued it violated the state constitution’s ban on 'special legislation,' but the judge found the law applied broadly enough to avoid being 'underinclusive.'
