Committee won't likely tackle complaint

by Nick Delgado

The Legislative Ethics Committee will reconvene tomorrow to continue its review of the committee rules and regulations.  But it's highly unlikely they'll get to hearing the complaint filed against Senator Matt Rector posed by Monte Mesa.  

There was much debate among the members during last Friday's meeting as the members were unable to agree on what action, if any, should be taken on Legislative Majority Legal Counsel Therese Terlaje's letter citing a conflict of interest in advising the committee.  Meanwhile, Senator Adolpho Palacios says he does not expect any official rules to be adopted.

The meeting will begin at noon.
