Joe Arpaio: Joe Arpaio Action Fund: help conservatives win office

Former Sheriff Joe Arpaio is soliciting funds for his new "Joe Arpaio Action Fund". He has set it up as a social welfare organization under Section 501 [instead of a political PAC under Section 527]. He says he is forming the JAAF to "build an organization that promotes a conservative agenda, helps conservative ideas become law, and help those conservatives win office." The IRS defines "social welfare" as "promoting in some way the common good & general welfare of the people of the community".

Joe Arpaio: America's Toughest Sheriff in nation's third largest Office

You probably know him as "America's Toughest Sheriff," a name given to him years ago by the media. It's a name he certainly has earned as head of the nation's third largest Sheriff's Office which employs over 3400 people. But even before he became Sheriff in 1993, Joe Arpaio was one tough lawman. After serving in the U.S. Army from 1950 to 1953, Arpaio went on to be a Washington, D.C., and Las Vegas, NV, police officer for almost five years.
