RUETER responded that her

Alexander also attacked the
suggested ethics commission ap-
pointments, saying HRP would
be excluded since they have
little chance of electing groups
of legislators or a governor
who would decide the commit-

State Sen. Gilbert Bursley (R-
Ann Arbor) said he was "heart-
ily behind" Common Cause's
petition effort, speaking in city
hall council chambers where
the meeting was held.
The petition drive is sched-
uled to begin in January.
