Ethics rulings say Daniels will be allowed to lobby legislature

Posted: Updated:

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels will be allowed to lobby the state legislature as Purdue University's next president.

Two state ethics rulings determined that Daniels can lobby for university funding and related matters when he finishes his term as Indiana's governor.

The rulings say that Daniels will not need a one-year "cooling off period" before lobbying the legislature -- like some thought.

Daniels has requested further clarification of all rules that apply to his exit from state government.
