DUers I Need Help RE Scott Pruitt

[avebury]

I want to file a complaint with the Oklahoma Bar Association to try to get Pruitt investigated.

I need help coming up with information and sources on his ethical violations that one could argue has pretty much been established so that they don't come back with it is just rumors or media reporting.

I want to include as much detailed information/evidence so that my request receives serious consideration and they actually take a look at him.

I would appreciate any help that you all could provide me with.

The Oklahoma Bar Association has launched an investigation into an ethics complaint filed against Environmental Protection Agency chief Scott Pruitt.

The complaint accuses Pruitt of breaching Oklahoma Rules of Professional Conduct by allegedly misrepresenting the facts when he told a Senate committee at his confirmation hearing that he did not use a personal email address to conduct business while attorney general of Oklahoma, reported KSWO-TV.

Documents that the attorney general’s office released through an Open Records Act lawsuit in Oklahoma appear to contradict sworn testimony from Pruitt, the state’s former attorney general.

“It appears that Mr. Pruitt misrepresented material facts that bore on the Senate committee’s analysis of Mr. Pruitt’s fitness to serve as EPA Administrator,” states the complaint, filed last week by the nonprofit Center for Biological Diversity, which works to protect endangered species, and University of Oklahoma law professor Kristen van de Biezenbos.

It doesn't specifically relate to Oklahoma, but there are many details about Pruitt's ethical violations alleged by former employees. Good luck!

4. I talked with someone at the OK Bar Assn today

and they would not confirm that there is an investigation on Pruitt. However, from what I understand about their procedures, an ethical violation does not have to take place in Oklahoma. If complaints are filed regarding ethical violations, they are supposed to investigate them.
