Ethics Commission Sets July 11th Meeting

Ethics Commission Chairman Don Bingham says the agency will detail its request for more funding at a July 11th meeting.
He also said the Commission will ask Governor Henry and legislative leaders for a $238,000 supplelmental appropration.
The agency has threatened to sue the Legislature over what Commission members say is a lack of adequate funding. They contend the Oklahoma Constitution mandates "adequate" funding but the Legislature has not given it enough money to do its job.
