With deep roots in labor and employment law and a planned retirement from her law firm by year’s end, Edison-Smith brings fresh perspective and bold leadership to the six-member board. She’s already impressed peers with her clarity on ethical dilemmas and her commitment to enforcing ethics laws—not shaping legislation. The commission, which recently appointed former AG Heidi Heitkamp, handles over 100 annual ethics opinions and investigates complaints, playing a vital role in safeguarding public integrity across state government.
