The ethics bill from Governor Sarah Palin arrived in the legislature this morning, was "read across the floor" in the House chamber, and was assigned to my State Affairs Committee. I am very pleased. Her bill is a very workable document. It covers most of the points in other ethics bills, and will be an excellent vehicle to contain the better provisions of the other ethics bills.
We will introduce the governor’s bill in the State Affairs Committee on January 30th, but not take testimony or debate her bill until after our Ethics Sub-Committee presents its recommendations. My goal is to have that happen quickly. My goal is give ethics legislation top priority.
