North Dakota To Vote On Adding Anti-corruption Language To State Constitution

in #government6 years ago


The first ballot measure with enough signatures for North Dakota voting in November will be an anti corruption measure.

The measure would prevent lobbyists from giving gifts to public officials and would establish an ethics commission that could investigate public officials, candidates and lobbyists. It would also prevent public officials from being a lobbyist while holding office and for two years after leaving their post, as well as require state agency leaders to "avoid the appearance of bias."
