Ok Governor, Mary Fallin gets health-sector lift
Doesn't this seem a little unethical? Looks to me like she is being bought with this money (madokie)
Doctors, dentists and others who would benefit from tort reform legislation to be considered in an upcoming special session have poured more than $700,000 into Gov. Mary Fallin's campaign coffers, a Tulsa World analysis shows.
The contributions from the health industry accounted for one out of every seven dollars given to Fallin's campaigns for governor, a World analysis of Ethics Commission data reflects. The individuals, businesses and political action committees from the health sector have contributed about $741,000 to Fallin's 2010 and 2014 candidate committees.
The majority of contributions came from individual doctors and other medical professionals while PACs and businesses contributed $92,000.
Medical providers are a chief segment of those who stand to benefit from any tort reform legislation that will be under consideration when the Legislature meets in special session. The session is to begin Sept. 3 and will cost taxpayers about $30,000 a day.
