Bracker Blurs Line Between Public Office, Private Business
John Pelissero, a senior scholar at the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University, notes that politicians have an ethical obligation to avoid even the appearance of a conflict of interest.
In Bracker’s case, Pelissero told the NI, "There is the appearance of a conflict of interest here, because Supervisor Bracker seems to be conducting public business in his private business location."
