A psychologist is licensed and able to serve clients in Arizona now after a fight spearheaded by the Goldwater Institute against the state.
Article by Bob Unruh from WND.
The organization reported that Dr. Carol Gandolfo had moved from California, where she was a licensed psychologist, but she had been unable to practice in Arizona initially because the state declined to recognize her qualifications.
The state actually has a “Breaking Down Barriers to Work” law that recognizes the validity of occupational licenses granted by other states as qualifying them for work in Arizona.
But the Goldwater Institute reported that the Arizona Board of Psychology Examiners claimed her doctoral degree wasn’t valid because it was from a state-accredited school, not a regionally accredited school.
The Institute took her case to the state, and the board reversed its decision and granted her a license.
“Yet when Dr. Gandolfo appealed the board’s refusal to abide by state law, the board retaliated against her by opening an investigation against her for practicing psychology without a license,” the Institute report explained.
“That complaint was predicated on no reliable evidence, and it was based on lawful activities, including volunteer activities with the Sedona Police and Fire Departments, over which the board had no jurisdiction.”

Now, Goldwater reported, the board has closed its complaint with a letter that includes no punishment.
“This action recognizes that Dr. Gandolfo did not engage in any wrongdoing. And it draws to a close a long and punitive investigation that was only brought forward because Dr. Gandolfo exercised her rights under Arizona’s universal licensing law,” the Institute reported.
“At a time when more Arizonans are in need of mental health services, the board should focus on allowing respected professionals to provide those services. The board’s decision today allows Dr. Gandolfo to get back to providing the care she is trained and experienced to provide, and it assures other Arizonans that they can practice their professions free from the arbitrary restraints of occupational licensing boards.”
The Institute reported its precedent in Gandolfo’s case also paved the way for several others in similar situations to obtain their needed state licenses.
Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We just launched a new GiveSendGo page. We also have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
