Oregon opens ethics probe into ex-transportation commissioner

The Oregon Government Ethics Commission opened an investigation Nov. 13 into former Oregon Transportation Commissioner Alicia Chapman to determine if she violated state ethics law by voting to advance an Oregon Department of Transportation project her company later worked on.
