Public Comment Period Open for Speaker Heastie's Nominees to the Commission on Ethics and Lobbying in Government

Speaker Carl Heastie today announced that the public comment period is open on his intended nominees to the Commission on Ethics and Lobbying in Government. Public comments on the nominations can be submitted here. The public has seven days to comment on the nominees, who will then be presented to the Independent Review Commission of New York’s law school deans for review and approval or denial to serve on the commission.

Last week Speaker Heastie announced that he intended to nominate Robert E. Torres and Leonard B. Austin to the Commission on Ethics and Lobbying in Government.
