Conservative activist and journalist Glen Morgan聽recently filed a complaint, alleging that Washington State Sen. Emily Alvarado, D-Seattle, violated laws regarding her role with

Morgan claimed that Alvarado violated state laws (RCW 42.52.020 and RCW 42.52.110) due to her role as vice president. He argued that Alvarado has a conflict of interest, as legislators are prohibited from holding certain positions with organizations that engage in lobbying. This week, he appeared on “The Jason Rantz Show” on KTTH to discuss his ethics complaint against Alvarado in more detail.

“She actually has a paid lobbyist as well, and she’s head of their organization,” Morgan said. “And then, the lobbyist is lobbying for the policy that she’s drafted and endorsed and signed.”

In 2016, Morgan founded , an outlet dedicated to supporting conservative movements and fighting against corrupt politicians. He previously filed similar complaints against other state senators, resulting in fines.

The bill in question is , which聽looks to cap rent increases at 7% for most units and 5% for mobile homes, with some exceptions, according to .

Conflicts of interest arise all the time; however, the proper course of action, according to Morgan, is to refrain from voting on them. And while he acknowledged that similar conflicts of interest are common, he believes this situation is particularly egregious.

“They can dance around these rules if they want to, but this isn’t even pretending to do that. This is just flat out; she was violating it,” Morgan said. “It’s a little bit more significant of a violation than some of those other ones that I’ve had.”
