Lege Trend: Less Conflict of Interest Disclosures for Energy Regulators

The State: Arizona

The regulators who should have less disclosure of conflicts of interest: The state utility commissioner

The reason why:  The previous utility commissioner had to resign because of a conflict of interest over her son-in-law working at a Solar Company.

The new conflict of interest disclosures for the utility commissioner, are they unheard of standards? No, its the same conflict of interest standard as lawmakers in Arizona
