Colton Moore Says Speaker Rolston Has Abused Power Of Office

  • Thursday, June 4, 2020
Georgia state representative and state Senate candidate Colton Moore said Speaker David Ralston had abused the power of the office.
 
He said Speaker Ralston should be investigated by the House Ethics Committee according to 97 percent of respondents on a public survey.

It was alleged that Speaker Ralston, who is an attorney, had continually delayed cases, including one in which a 14-year-old girl claims she was raped by a traveling evangelist.

Rep.
Moore said, "Families, victims, and criminals affected by these allegations and Delayed Justice deserve an Ethics Review as called for by Georgia House Rule 164.4.
 
"Someone should not be allowed to serve as Speaker in the Legislative Branch, if their duties delay Justice, in hundreds of circumstances, in the Judicial Branch of our State Government.
 
"After speaking with more Citizens and reviewing House Rules, perhaps this is what our People have always wanted?
 
"This Ethics Review should have been done a year ago but unfortunately, the Chairman of the Ethics Committee was picked by Speaker Ralston and has opted to not do his job when serious allegations arise. Swamp.
 
"We get the government we deserve. The People deserve a review from the Ethics Committee in the Georgia General Assembly."
