Sep. 1 - Senator Peter Wirth discusses ethics and the Gila River Diversion Project

House leaders have called for the resignation of Secretary of State Dianna Duran based on allegations she embezzled money to feed her gambling habit. As the voices grow stronger for Duran to step down, so do the voices wanting an Ethics Commission. Today we continue to look at the state’s need for an Ethics Commission, the efforts that have been made to create one. Senator Peter Wirth, currently in meetings in Silver City regarding the Gila River Diversion Project, was one of the sponsors of such a proposal and talks about what the commission would do and why it’s critical for New Mexico.
