A complaint filed against Phoenix City Councilmember Carlos Garcia alleged he broke Arizona law by accepting money from a labor union.

A Phoenix council member running for reelection to represent south Phoenix probably violated campaign finance laws, according to a report released Thursday.

Herrera, who was referred the case after Phoenix City Clerk Denise Archibald noted a potential conflict of interest, agreed with the allegations and sent her findings to Phoenix City Attorney Cris Meyer for further investigation. Phoenix City Council candidates are not, by state law, allowed to accept labor union donations. They are, however, allowed to accept donations from labor unions that register separate political action committees or mega PACs.
