Michigan is one of two states that does not require lawmakers to publicly disclose at least some financial data, “and that would not change under this package,” said Rep. Bill Sowerby, D-Clinton Township.
“It is the public s right to know what financial conflicts those they are electing might have,” he said. “It is therefore so disappointing to me that this package fails to do that, and rather moves Michigan towards more darkness and obscurity.”
Supporters, however, contend the legislation will make significant improvements to Michigan ethics laws, which currently require no financial disclosure by lawmakers or other officials, and begin to restore waning public trust in government.
