Are feds interfering with Phoenix PPE orders? [View all]

Phoenix Mayor, (D) Kate Gallego, is not alone. Heck of a job, Jared, you have blood on your hands. We will remember your mafia style crime family come November.

Are feds interfering with Phoenix PPE orders?

City of Phoenix chief financial officer Denise Olson tells 12 News the city has not been able to fulfill a PPE order for more than three weeks.

“We’ve had couple situations where the vendor said they could not meet those orders, that they’d been commandeered by the federal government. But then we went and tried to check that, and we don’t know what that means,” Olson said.

Olson says two of those vendors were Minnesota-based Fastenal and the Los Angeles-based Dunn Edwards.

Dunn Edwards denied knowing anything about that claim.

A spokesperson for Fastenal tells 12 News manufacturers of the masks stopped sending them inventory at the direction of the federal government and therefore the company had to cancel its order to the City of Phoenix.
