[edit] Notable Complaints
[edit] Transportation Commissioner
In November of 2008, the Ethics in Government Group called for the firing of Transportation Commissioner Gena Evans for having inappropriate relationships with co-workers. [2]
The state transportation board has met to discuss Evans behavior, but have not yet taken any action. [3]
[edit] House Speaker
The Group sought e-mail records of Georgia House Speaker Glenn Richardson in order to investigate whether or not there had been an "improper relationship with a female utility lobbyist". The e-mails failed to prove incriminating. [4]
