Abstract
A public employee is not prohibited by the Ethics Reform Act from running for public office. Nor are there any requirements in the Ethics Reform Act which requires a public employee to resign their public position in order to run for public office. Agencies may have restrictions or prohibitions concerning an employee's candidacy, however, no such restriction or prohibition exists in the Ethics Reform Act.
