A member of the Alabama Ethics Commission has resigned over claims he violated state law by making campaign contributions.
The Alabama Ethics Commission reviews ethics complaints against public officials and employees. The commission also issues guidance on what is allowed, and not allowed, under the state ethics law.
McDonald, a Republican, had been critical of a proposed revamp of the state ethics law. During a radio interview, he expressed disappointment that other members of the party were pushing the proposal, and indicated that he had contributed to campaigns. Campaign finance records show that McDonald had made about $500 in contributions since joining the commission.
