Here's a news item from the Associated Press: BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Lawmakers plan to take a second look at Treasurer Ron Crane's bid to expand his office's authority to run financial-literacy workshops, following an audit questioning his use of taxpayer funds and staff time for the annual "Smart Women, Smart Money" event. The measure was heading for a House vote, but on Wednesday representatives unanimously agreed to send Crane's proposal back to the State Affairs Committee for reconsideration. House Minority Leader John Rusche said lawmakers may add provisions requiring any money used for the 12-year-old conference be approved by the Legislature. Crane contends past auditors told him his staff could work on the confab, provided it didn't detract from regular duties. Crane runs the conference through his private nonprofit organization, but says he's restructuring it after auditors raised some conflict-of-interest concerns.
