| Executive Department |
The Arizona State Executive Department is the executive branch of the Arizona State Government. The executive branch is headed by the Governor of Arizona, and is composed of the Office of Governor and the various executive Departments and Agencies of the State.
Arizona State Executive Cabinet[edit | edit source]
The senior-most body of the Executive Department is the Arizona State Executive Cabinet, which is composed of the Governor –who heads the Executive– and the principle Officer in each of the various executive Departments and Agencies of the State. The Executive Council is not a cabinet in the parliamentary sense of the term. Rather it is more of a council of state that advises the Governor on the affairs of the State, whereby all final decisions are made by the Governor and not by the whole council as would be the case in a cabinet system of executive government: The Governor is not a primus inter pares[a], but the Chief Executive of the State.[1]

Department of State and Foreign Affairs[edit | edit source]
- Website: link://state.arizona.gov
The Arizona Department of State and Foreign Affairs, usually shortened to "Department of State", is the State's combined foreign, elections, records and archives, notary-public, trademark registration, and copy certification (certified copies) ministry. Among other responsibilities, the Department is tasked with carrying out the Governor's foreign Policy and the United States' Common Foreign Policy, as well as ensuring the proper functioning of all State, county, local, and Federal electoral systems within Arizona. The Department is headed by a Secretary of State and Foreign Affairs, commonly known as "Secretary of State". After the Governor, the Secretary of State and Foreign Affairs is the most senior member of in the Executive Department. However, the Secretary of State is not the first in the gubernatorial order of succession; rather, the President of the Arizona Senate is first in line to succeed to the Office of Governor in the event that the duly elected Governor is killed, incapacitated, is absent from the State (in which Case the President of the Senate serves only as Acting Governor until the elected Governor returns to the State), or is otherwise unable to execute the Powers and Duties of his Office.

Department of the Attorney-General[edit | edit source]
- Website: link://attorney-general.arizona.gov
The Arizona Department of the Attorney-General is responsible for providing legal counsel to the State and to local governments on all matters of State and Federal law. The Department is also the State-level prosecutor's office; however, the fifteen County-Attorney offices carry out most of this responsibility: for the most part, the Department of the Attorney-General would only take on the role of prosecutor in extraordinary circumstances and for extraordinary crimes, such as investigating corruption in one of the County-Attorney offices or investigating corruption in the offices of senior State officers, or prosecuting the crime of treason. However, the Department of the Attorney-General is responsible for prosecuting federal offenses. The Department of the Attorney-General is headed by the Attorney-General of Arizona. The AG must be an attorney licensed by the State Bar of Arizona and have had practiced Law in Arizona for at least five Years prior to his appointment as Attorney-General and, like every State or local Officer, must have not been convicted, under Arizona law, of Treason, Felony, or domestic Violence.
The post of Attorney-General is a powerful one, especially in that the AG may issue advisory opinions on Matters of State and Federal law, which are binding unless and until overridden by the Legislature or the Courts; however, opinions issued by the Arizona AG on Matters of Federal Law may also be overridden by the United States Attorney-General.
The Department is also the primary enforcer of Arizona’s antitrust, consumer Fraud, organized Crime, and civil Rights laws. This gives the Attorney-General significant ability to shape public Policy. The Department also prosecutes administrative disciplinary Actions against Doctors, Dentists, real estate Agents, licensed Contractors, and others who hold occupational Licenses.
The Attorney-General, both personally and through the Department of the Attorney-General, also plays an important, but not exclusive Role in criminal law Enforcement: In Arizona, most Crimes are initially Tried at the County-level in superior Court by elected County Attorneys and their Staffs. Appeals of criminal Convictions are, however, typically handed by the Department of the Attorney-General to ensure Statewide consistency on important legal Issues. In addition, the Attorney-General has supervisory Powers over County Attorneys and can take over local criminal Prosecutions at the request of the Governor or County —this usually occurs when a County Attorney has a conflict of Interest.

Department of Public Safety[edit | edit source]
- Website: link://publicsafety.arizona.gov
The Department of Public Safety, also known as the “Arizona State Troopers”, is responsible for maintaining law and order throughout the State. However, in practice, much of this responsibility is carried out by the fifteen Sheriff's Offices and the numerous municipal and specialist police agencies. The Department of Public Safety is, however, vested with primary jurisdiction over certain, specific offenses, and exclusive enforcement authority over various statutes (primarily those which pertain to immigration, customs, foreign affairs, national security, trans-national crime, arms and human smuggling, white-collar crime, and financial crimes); and is vested with exclusive jurisdiction, both investigative and enforcement, over all State property, State facilities (including State military installations), and State Lands. DPS coordinate with the Department of Emergency and Military Affairs on security matters for Arizona embassies and Arizona ambassadors abroad.
Also a gendarmerie force, the Arizona State Troopers have a wide-ranging mandate, however the Agency has delegated many of its responsibilities to county Sheriffs and municipal Police.
The Department of Public Safety is under the command of the Secretary of the Department of Public Safety, with the rank of Colonel, who is appointed by the Governor of Arizona, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Arizona Senate. The Secretary is assisted by a Senior Undersecretary, with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, appointed by the Governor on the recommendation of the Secretary. The Department is composed of six primary divisions - State Patrol (formerly Highway Patrol), Criminal Investigations, Technical Services, Agency Support, Intelligence, and the Secretary’s Office. The five program Divisions are each headed by an Undersecretary, each with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.
