Burns admits sponsoring pro insurance bill amid stake in firm
Senate leader Hugh M. Burns acknowledged he sponsored a 1965 bill to allow credit disability insurance in California while he was president and a major owner of Menlo Union Life Insurance Co. He said there was no conflict of interest and that the profit from the firm was not significant. Burns claimed he aimed to exit the business and offered no direct benefit from the legislation.
