Monrovia Assemblyman Portantino Denied Access to Assembly Finance Info

In a battle with his own Democratic party, Assemblyman Anthony Portantino, who represents part of Monrovia, has been denied information regarding fellow legislators' budgets. He had been accused of overspending (he denies it) and I think he'd like to compare his office expenses with those of other Assembly members. http://goo.gl/k0dw7

Opinion: This makes the Assembly leadership smell like a rotten chicken. Portantino - and for that matter, the public - should be able to see how much money the Assembly is spending on each of its members.  Star-News reporter Beige Luciano-Adams did a good job on this article.
