INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (WOWO) — Today, State Senator Liz Brown (IN-15) submitted her resignation as Assistant Majority Floor Leader in charge of Communications to Senate President Pro Tempore Rod Bray, effective immediately.

“We who led the conservative effort to redraw our Congressional maps are devastated about yesterday’s vote,” said Brown. “Myself, Sen. Gaskill and the other 17 senators who voted yes recognize the consequences of what it will mean to have socialists control Congress. Yesterday, we failed our conservative voters, our colleagues in the Indiana House, our Indiana Congressional Delegation and the President who won our state by 19 points. Our Caucus will have rebuilding to do to repair communication and trust with voters, and I will focus on that effort outside of Senate Leadership.”
