Rhode Island Democratic Gov. Dan McKee will be investigated by the state Ethics Commission in order to establish whether or not a free lunch violated state campaign finance laws.
Published 3 hours agoJeff Britt, a lobbyist representing urban development firm Scout Ltd., paid for the $228 meal at the Capital Grille in Providence in January. Scout Ltd. was hoping to move ahead with a plan to redevelop the Cranston Street Armory in Providence.
Britt said he paid for the lunch at the request of Sahagian. The governor’s campaign said last month that they reimbursed Britt for the lunch. Rhode Island Republican Party Chairman Joe Powers, who welcomed the investigation, said “the Ethics Commission needs to expose Rhode Island’s pay-to-play political culture.” Powers added in the written statement “what has happened in this state in the last sixty days is embarrassing."
