The Arizona Cardinals contributed $109 million. The Cardinals purchased the land for the stadium for $18.5 million. Facility Website Twitter: @UOPXStadium UPDATE: Following the previous summer’s ruling from the Maricopa County Superior Court that the rental car tax was unconstitutional, the court has ruled the state must refund the rental car tax previously collected. The refunds could cost the State approximately $160 million. This would likely reduce the funding the Arizona Sports and Tourism Authority receives from the State to use toward debt payments on the University of Phoenix Stadium. In June 2016, the University of Phoenix Stadium upgraded the sound system throughout the arena.

  • BLANTON, Ray, Congressional Papers
    State of Tennessee Department of State Tennessee State Library and Archives 403 Seventh Avenue North Nashville, Tennessee 37243-0312 RAY BLANTON CONGRESSIONAL PAPERS 1967 – 1972 Processed by: Stewart Southard Archival Technical Services Manuscripts Accession Number: 1995-098 Microfilm Accession Number: 1726 Date Completed: 12-3-2003 Location: XI–C–1-6; II–A–1v, Box 1 MICROFILMED INTRODUCTION From his election in 1967 until his defeat to Howard Baker in 1972, Leonard Raymond Blanton served as U.S. Representative representing Tennessee’s Seventh Congressional District. As a freshman legislator from a predominantly rural district, Blanton had little influence on national politics, sponsoring few bills of any significance. He served on only two committees; the Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee and the District of Columbia Committee, where his attendance records were reportedly poor. Instead, Blanton concentrated his efforts on constituent service, returning often to his district, responding promptly to voter’s concerns, and working to draw federal money to finance projects in Tennessee. This collection of documents mirrors the focus Blanton placed on the needs of his constituency during his six years as U.S. Representative. More than one half of the documents in this collection consist of correspondence, both with constituents, and with state and federal agencies. During Blanton’s tenure as Representative, a number of divisive issues prompted individuals to write their congressman, by themselves or as part of organized letter writing campaigns. For example, both the war in Vietnam, and the court mandated busing of students to desegregate the schools prompted volumes of mail. Part of the constituent correspondence was filed by date, but the bulk of it is filed by subject.
