Message: From GoLocalProv by James C. Sheehan, GoLocalProv Guest MINDSETTER™ : In 1986 Rhode Island voters approved a constitutional amendment to require that elected officials and public employees adhere to the highest ethical standards of public service. In a 2009 ruling in a case involving former Senate President William V. Irons, the Rhode Island Supreme Court effectively exempted members of the General Assembly from any penalty by the state Ethics Commission for ethics violations relating to their core legislative acts or duties. http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/a-way-to-close-the-ethics-loophole
