Conflict-of-interest and voting on legislation - 2 of 25
Incorrect answer:
NO. Existing law already affords tenants sufficient time within which to cure any default is INCORRECT.
Whether or not any particular piece of legislation has merit on public policy grounds is irrelevant to the ethical duty incumbent upon you to analyze carefully and thoughtfully any potential conflicts of interest in connection with each vote you cast as a member of the General Assembly and to follow all applicable requirements if that analysis leads to the conclusion that a conflict is present. In this case, because of the "class exception", a conflict-of-interest situation is not present and you may vote on the legislation. However, you still need to undertake the analysis, regardless of the merits, or lack thereof, of the legislation at issue.
