Ethics complaint filed against Texas Speaker of the House

http://bayareahouston.blogspot.com/2008/12/house-speaker-craddicks-ethics.html

Over the last few months State Representatives Eissler and Isett have been heavily fined by the Texas Ethics Commission for using their campaign cash to pay their spouses and dependents for services. They both claimed ignorance and at least one claimed House Speaker Craddick was doing it also. And for good reason.

Craddick has paid his daughter Christi over $650,000 since 2003 for "salary", $133,000 in 2007 and $110,000 for the first 10 monts of 2008. As Isett and Eissler has learned, the Ethics Commission rules prohibits payments to dependents.

IT IS MUCH WORSE. COME BY AND READ MORE.
