Wrights Ethics Charges Bankers Campaign Ties
The Republican candidate for state treasurer Wright faces criticism for soliciting campaign contributions from bankers. His finance chairman sent letters nationwide asking for moral spiritual and financial support. Senate Banking and Currency Committee recalls the 1956 Hodge hearings condemning such practices and calls for legislation to ban banker contributions to treasurer candidates. Wright previously acknowledged deposits of state funds in private banks could be influenced by friendship. The piece urges Wright to stop soliciting funds and warns of potential conflicts of interest tied to state deposits and private banking.
