NTU to file ethics complaints against Grandy and others
The National Taxpayers Union says it will file complaints with the House ethics committee against Rep. Fred Grandy and three other congressmen for unexcused absences. NTU claims Grandy missed 30 days while seeking the Republican gubernatorial nomination and seeks a $10 980 pay dock. Governor Branstad cites lost votes on key bills during the period. Speaker Foley is also targeted for failing to enforce pay deductions.
