Roll Call Quotes Ken Gross on ‘Real Improvement’ in Congressional Ethics
Contact:
For its article “Despite fears agency could be crippled, House fills ethics posts,” Roll Call quoted Akin Gump senior political law counsel and consultant Ken Gross. The article looks at the state of the Office of Congressional Ethics and of the House Ethics Committee in the 118th Congress, noting that ethics advocacy groups had feared the House GOP majority would sideline the former.
Gross called the fact that the House Ethics Committee will accept formal complaints from individuals and groups outside Congress a “real improvement” but cautioned that “the proof will be in the pudding, because just allowing a complaint doesn’t mean there will be action.”
