Employees of the Governor's Office of Economic Development are banned from working for or contracting with any company that received state grants, loans, or other financial assistance from that office for five years after they leave their job. Violating this "cooling off period" restriction is a criminal misdemeanor, meant to prevent conflicts of interest and ensure state economic development funds aren't used to benefit former employees.
