Urquhart: 'We'll Keep It Together' on Legislative Ethics Reform

Sen. Steve Urquhart, noting that he's been appointed to chair the Senate Ethics Committee, says the ethics reform process "calls for criticism, critique, give and take, modification, etc. No doubt, the media will have a field day writing that the Legislature is about to explode with fights between the House and Senate and Republicans and Democrats. Sure, we'll disagree some. And you'll be well served by that disagreement. Hopefully, you'll help foment some of that disagreement and discussion. Each body and party will complain that the other is moving too fast or too slow or too this or too that. But, we'll keep it together, and I predict that we'll take the public's input and move the issue forward."
