There have been at least 2 high-profile abuse of office in North Dakota as of late. First, Rep. Jason Dockter was found to have violated the law in his conduct of appropriating tax dollars to the Attorney General's building he was involved in. Second, the sentencing of former Sen. Ray Holmberg described his corruption and abuse of office for decades.

These examples should lead to more support for the North Dakota Ethics Commission created by voters. Instead, politicians are trying to tie the hands of the Commission.
