Last April, Richard Painter, University of Minnesota law professor and a top ethics scholar who worked as George W. Bush’s chief ethics lawyer, talked with Mill City Commons members about conflicts of interest of the president of the United States and other government officials. As the Trump presidency begins year two, Professor Painter will take a look back with a review of ethics in the administration’s first year. His talk will include discussion of the U.S. Constitution, conflict of interest laws and the practices used by government officials to comply.
