Ethics complaints filed against local lawmakers
 
Dave Palmer, a California man who calls himself "The Watchdawg," filed ethics complaint against more than 20 Texas lawmakers for campaign finance violations yesterday. Four local Republican lawmakers - State Sen. Chris Harris of Arlington and State Reps Todd Smith of Euless, Phil King of Weatherford and Linda Harper-Brown of Irving - made the list.
 
Their alleged missteps include using campaign money to pay for dry cleaning (King) and gym membership fees (Smith).
