Perr Needs to Stop Talking About Ethics Reform and Start Practicing Ethics ReformDemocrat Chairman Continues to Break Promise to Avoid Personal Gain from Chairmanship
(Mount Holly, NJ) - Burlington County Democrat Chairman Rick Perr is at it again. During the Pemberton Township reorganization last week, the law firm of Gluck Walrath, LLC of Trenton was appointed township solicitor. Then, Gluck Walrath was appointed as solicitor to the Riverside Township bond counsel. Finally, Gluck Walrath was able to secure the position of Special Counsel to the Cinnaminson School Board. Mr. Perr’s wife, Cindy, is a high level attorney with the firm.
“It appears that Rick Perr has misled the public once again. He pledged not to use his office for personal gain, but apparently that pledge does not extend to the Perr household,� said Rich Levesque, Executive Director of the Burlington County Republican Committee.
“This is the same Rick Perr who claimed that the Burlington County Taxpayers Association, which he founded, was a non-partisan organization,� Levesque added. “That kind of hypocrisy might work in Mr. Perr’s native Camden County, but it’s just a little too transparent to voters in Burlington County. Mr. Perr needs to stop talking about ethics reform and start practicing ethics reform.�
