METRO board: We're not a rubber-stamp; we just all vote like it

The chair of METRO's board doesn't like being called a rubber stamp for CEO Frank "Procurement Disaster" Wilson.

To quote board member Jackie Freeman, "We end up voting in one voice... and it appears like it’s a rubber stamp, but there’s a lot of work that goes into it before each meeting.”

In a story on Friday, Texas Watchdog's Rosanna Ruiz sorted out METRO's new, please-don't-call-it-a-rubber-stamp approach to delivering near unanimity for Frank "Procurement Disaster" Wilson. Be sure to check it out if you haven't already.
