SUN CAPITAL BUREAU

CARSON CITY -- Assemblyman Josh Griffin, R-Henderson, said today he has resigned from the legislative committee that will study the consequences of the $836 million tax increase enacted by the 2003 session.

Griffin, who was assistant minority leader, said he is stepping down to avoid a potential conflict of interest that might arise.

He runs Griffin's Communication Group that will lobby for clients. He said he doesn't think he has any clients now that would pose a conflict of interest from serving on the committee. But he said he might gain some business in the future that could conflict with the study committee.
