Advisory opinion regarding whether State Representative Bryan Adams may be employed by a fire truck sales dealer. |
|
Bryan Adams is the State Representative for District 85. Mr. Adams was previously employed by a fire truck sales dealer. Rep. Adams never sold fire trucks to entities which used state dollars to purchase the trucks. The fire trucks sold were to municipalities, parishes and non-profit fire companies that provided services to municipalities and parishes. Rep. Adams intends to work in the same field again.
