(1)The commission shall determine its own rules and order of business and shall keep a journal of its proceedings. It may compel the attendance of absent members, may punish its members for disorderly behavior, and, by a vote of not less than two-thirds of its members, may expel a member for disorderly conduct or the repeated violation of its rules. However, a member may not be expelled unless notified of the charge against the member and given an opportunity to be heard.
