UA System policy (and maybe state law) changed and he had to either give up his job or he couldn't run for the legislature anymore

If I understand the existing state ethics law, if your pay is from the state funds, it is a violation of that law to serve in any compensated elected state post. That was explained to me when I asked why working professional teachers never got to serve on school boards (state or local) or in the legislature. Only "former" teachers (like the present Governor) can serve.

The change only went into effect in the past 5 years or so. I'm almost positive it was only a UA System policy, not law, but I'm not 100% sure
