About this episode
The episode discusses the underfunding of the Office of Ethics in Bridgeport following charter reforms aimed at improving local ethics policies.
Last November, Bridgeport voters overwhelmingly supported charter reforms really focusing on local ethics policies and bolstering oversight of elections. Apparently, the money needed to hire a solid director for the Office of Ethics is potentially not being invested properly. We asked John Hosier, vice chair of the 13-member bipartisan Charter Revision Commission, what’s going on.
