Indiana State Senator Liz Brown of Fort Wayne has filed a grievance against Republican Attorney General Todd Rokita.
Brown, also a Republican, filed the grievance over comments Rokita made in an interview with conservative radio host Casey Hendrickson that a bill was stalled in the Senate because she has a family member who is in the U.S. illegally.
Brown says that is “blatantly false” and her office says Rokita is meant to mislead constituents “to make them think that Senator Brown has a personal conflict in performing her duties as Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee.”
