A committee considering expelling Rep. Thomas Wright meets tomorrow.
The House Select Committee to Investigate Alleged Misconduct and other Matters Included in Indictments Against Rep. Thomas Wright will hold its first meeting at 4 p.m. in Room 544 of the Legislative Office Building.
The committee with the unwieldy name will consider criminal indictments against the Wilmington Democrat that he defrauded banks, corporations and political donors.
Separately, the Joint Legislative Ethics Committee will look into whether Wright improperly used his office to convince a state worker to write a fraudulent letter that helped him secure a $150,000 loan.
A spokesman for Speaker Joe Hackney said the meeting will be mostly, er, housekeeping, setting up a schedule and laying down the rules of the game.
