"Government is a trust, and the officers of the government are trustees;
and both the trust and the trustees are created for the benefit of the people." - Henry Clay, 1829

Watchdogs protest, file new complaints against MellowFrom the Scranton Times-Tribune: Harrisburg watchdogs announced they filed new and amended demands for investigations of state Senate Minority Leader Robert J. Mellow as they staged their own Groundhog Day observance outside his Peckville Senate office Tuesday. One amended complaint asks the state attorney general's office to look into more than $188,000 worth of checks made payable to "cash" over nine years by Mr. Mellow's chief campaign committee, Friends of Bob Mellow. A Times-Tribune review of the senator's campaign finance reports last year raised questions about whether reports that listed the checks meet the explicit language of the state campaign finance law. The law requires the committees to name who receives "each and every expenditure." |
