Representative Chair Richardson introduced L005 as a positive statement ensuring coroners are not precluded from working in their day job, arguing it would reassure small-county coroners who are not paid full time.

I am happy to present to you Senate Bill 105. And it's a very, very simple little bill simply stating that it requires coroners to file written disclosures of their financial interests in specific specified businesses regulated by their respective offices within 30 days of taking office or 30 days of acquiring the financial interest, whichever is later.
