| Description | An Arizona state lawmaker has proposed a $20 fee on people who want to view online pornography in order to raise money for building a border wall between Arizona and Mexico.
Arizona House Bill 2444, proposed last week by State Rep. Gail Griffin (R-Hereford), would require makers and distributors of Internet-connected devices to ship such devices with blocking software "that renders a website that displays obscene material inaccessible by default." Under the bill, any Internet user who wants to deactivate the blocking software would have to pay "a onetime deactivation fee of at least $20 to the Arizona Commerce Authority."
To accomplish that goal, the bill provides a list of 10 types of projects that could be funded by the porn fee. First on the list is "build a border wall between Mexico and this state or fund border security." The proposal comes as President Trump continues his push for a border wall. |
