Ethics staff increases face fight over lobbyist shift
Sen. Thomas L. Moore said senators likely oppose staff increases if lobbying regulation moves from the Secretary of State to the Ethics Commission. A compromise bill would transfer lobbying duties to the ethics office on July 1, 1983, with Moore noting the Senate may resist future staffing. He cited Secretary of State Jim Miles’s stretched staff and campaign to retain control, while other gains include a rule barring lawyer-legislators who plead before boards from voting on those agencies’ budgets. The panel aims to finalize language by June 28.
