It was appropriate that Rep. Laurie Sanborn has decided to step away from the commission directly involved in the oversight of charitable gaming,\u201d<\/strong> Wilhelm said on Friday. \u201cHowever, she remains the Chair of the House Ways and Means Committee, where members will resume work on retained bills specific to charitable gaming this month.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\nShould She Leave Legislature?<\/h2>\n

Sanborn must resign from her elected position immediately and retire from any active career in public service.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\nHe also wants the voting records of both Sanborns reviewed while they held elective office to make sure there were not \u201cany conflicts of interest.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThroughout the process, we did our due diligence to ensure compliance with all application requirements and standards. While I strongly disagree with the (Lottery) Commission\u2019s statements, I welcome the examination ahead, as I have full confidence our actions were transparent and in complete accordance of the law.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
