> Kavanagh’s bill makes a violation a petty offense, the lowest-level Arizona crime that can bring a fine but no jail time. Refusing to stop recording when an officer orders it would be a low-level misdemeanor subject to a 30-day jail sentence.

Payment for time served directly from police budgets and the legislators salary instead of generally from the taxes of the residents.

It wont. It will, however, cause law enforcement to be "more careful" and less people will lose their jobs.
