Bingham Edwards says the center offers a place for residents of 18 counties and 35 legislators to meet officials and discuss state matters with offices, secretarial help, and conference rooms for over 30 participants. The council has a $17,700 six month budget and is deemed a proper government function by the Attorney General and Ethics Commission.

Ethics Law Aims Told by Alabama Official
Melvin Cooper director of the State Ethics Commission told Alabama Associated Press editors the two year old ethics law aims to restore confidence in elected officials and curb cynicism toward government. He cited changes in attitudes among officials and employees and noted calls to the commission about permissible actions. Cooper supported the 1973 law as ethical principles the public expects and opposed a federal ruling striking down a provision requiring media and public officials to file economic interest statements as an assault on the First Amendment. He said the commission is appealing a state court ruling that the law does not apply to city and county levels.
