By Katherine GreggPROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Steve Archambault, a Democratic candidate for attorney general, is calling for the "immediate passage'' by state lawmakers of legislation to give voters in Rhode Island the opportunity this November to reinstate the Ethics Commission's power over state legislators.
"We need more oversight of the General Assembly -- not less,'' said Archambault, who is also a Smithfield town councilman, in a statement. "Member(s) of the General Assembly should be subject to the same Ethics Commission oversight as the rest of our state's public officials."
