Bloggers and News Media cover Sheriff Greg Solano’s Ethics Proposals posted on his Website!
Links and some quotes from the articles are posted below. To read the Ethics Plan click on Issues above.
Some of his ideas like an independent ethics commission have been debated for years now and the idea of having a Secretary of State’s Web site that actually works is sheer fantasy on the level of Tolkien. (If that was really possible they’d have already done that by now, right?)
But there’s some other ideas such as having public financing specifically for attorney general and state auditor are new. Solano also wants a “Department of Webcasting.” A new “department” is probably a little far-fetched, but having one central state agency in charge of that is certainly worth discussing.
Greg Solano, the Santa Fe County Sheriff and an announced candidate for lieutenant governor, unveiled an ethics plan on his campaign Web site today.
In a post on his Twitter account, Solano wrote that he would endorse the ethics plan if he becomes lieutenant governor.
Solano’s Web site says he would support the creation of an independent ethics commission, a goal that ethics reform supporters have wanted for years.
Solano is also in support of a “department of webcasting.” The department of webcasting “would be entrusted with getting as many government meetings and press conferences webcasted as possible.”
In addition to this, Solano says that he believes the positions of state auditor and attorney general should remain elected positions and not be appointed by the governor.
Sheriff Greg Solano is the first statewide candidate to step up with a comprehensive plan to end the culture of corruption at once and for all.
This is the candidate we have been waiting for.
Voters finally have a straight up choice; real reform or, the same old, same old.
