Arizona Retaliation protections

Is landlord retaliation illegal in Arizona?

A landlord may not raise rent, cut services, or bring or threaten an eviction after the tenant complains to a code agency or to the landlord about habitability, or joins a tenants' union. A complaint within 6 months before the landlord's action creates a presumption of retaliation, unless it came after a termination notice.
