Rep. Greg Smith, a Republican serving a 13th term in the Oregon House, repeatedly broke state ethics laws to secure a hefty raise for his work as head of a small public agency in eastern Oregon, a commission concluded Friday.

Longtime Republican lawmaker Greg Smith broke Oregon ethics laws when he used his office to try to secure a $109,000 raise for his work as executive director of an eastern Oregon economic development agency, then maneuvered to get a $66,000 pay hike and make it retroactive, the Oregon ethics commission concluded Friday.
