colorado constitution section V, article 43 - prohibited voting on bills with personal interest

[xiondavis]

I think there are a couple of house members that need to go re read section V, article 43 of the Colorado constitution. That article says any legislate member with personal and private interests in a bill are required to publicly disclose that fact and are prohibited from vote on said bill. Legislature members are elected to serve the people, not themselves. If the people you represent want something than vote on it. If you have a personal interest, such as an emotional interest, you are doing a disservice to the state and there are remedies for that. There are a couple of house members that have publicly and officially made it very clear that they have a personal interest in this legislation and that personal interest is affecting their vote. Per article 43; They must abstain from vote on said legislation.
