Yes you read that right. First it was a rumor spreading in the Indianapolis bubble but our sources have confirmed this is true. Governor Holcomb is planning on running for Indiana US Senator in 2024 and US Senator Mike Braun plans to run for Indiana Governor in 2024. We have checked the FEC records and found out that Governor Eric Holcomb raised over five hundred thousand and opened his US Senator committee in 2015 and never closed it.
Governor Holcomb has faced numerous of backlash from the Indiana Republicans. The Indiana State Legislators held by Republicans vetoed 2 of Governor Eric Holcomb’s veto.
One bill was restricting Governor Holcomb’s Executive Power and the other one was Senate Bill 5. Senate Bill 5 is about Local health departments; public health emergencies. Provides that if a local order addresses an aspect of a declared emergency addressed by an executive order, the local order may be less stringent than the executive order to the extent permitted by the executive order.
Provides that if a local order addresses an aspect of a declared emergency that is not addressed by an executive order or if a local order addresses an aspect of a declared emergency more stringently than an executive order, the local order may not take effect, or remain in effect, unless the local order is approved by the county legislative body (in the case of a county health department) or by an ordinance adopted by the city legislative body and approved by the mayor (in the case of a city health department).
Provides that the appointment of a county health officer is subject to the approval of the county legislative body. Adds other good cause to the reasons for which a local health officer may be removed in counties other than Marion County. Specifies that a local health officer serves until a successor is appointed and qualified.
Establishes an appeals process before legislative bodies of enforcement actions taken by local boards of health and local health officers in response to declared state and local public health emergencies.
Governor Eric Holcomb also faced backlash from Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita and
Former Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill for abusing his Executive Power during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
That’s why the Indiana State Legislators restricted Governor Holcomb’s power and many Republican Hoosiers are still upset with Eric Holcomb, they even created a Impeachment Grassroots Movement on Facebook. Eric Holcomb would have to work very hard to restore the trust with thousands of Conservative Hoosiers who want him Impeached.
U.S. Senator Mike Braun is also facing backlash after lying and telling Hoosiers he was “gonna fight the voter fraud”, after Former President Trump leaked out voter fraud happening in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona and Michigan.
