House Speaker Joe Hackney has appointed the six-member committee that will look into allegations against Rep. Thomas Wright.
According to an announcement from Hackney's office, the committee will have the same House members as the Joint Legislative Ethics Committee, which is also looking into Wright.
The two committees are needed because of the nature of the allegations and the relevant laws in place at the time. (For more on that, visit the Tavern.)
Rep. Rick Glazier will chair the committee and House Minority Leader Paul Stam will be vice chair.
The other members are: Reps. Marvin Lucas, Bill McGee, Edith Warren and Laura Wiley.
Glazier, Lucas and Warren are Democrats; Stam, McGee, and Wiley are Republicans.
