SHOULD THIS LAW BE ENFORCED?

Indiana doesn't have a Recall Law. After days of researching Indiana Code, we found that there is a way of removing an elected official from Office.

Indiana Code: 5-8-2-1 Section 1. Any person holding any office under the Constitution or laws of this state who shall voluntarily become intoxicated within the business hours of the office, OR is in the habit of becoming intoxicated by the use of intoxicating liquors, shall be removed from office under IC 34-17.

(P.L. 1-1998, SEC.68.)

Freedom Of Speech would like to say:

No elected official should be above this law. Could this be part of the reason our city is in the mess we are in? Are too many deals being CUT at the local Studio's Bar?

Maybe we should start having council meetings there and let the rest of us in on what is really going on in our city.

No wonder the ISP is keeping close tabs on New Albany downtown bars.

Like the Commanding Officer of the Sellersburg ISP Headquarters told us: We work for the citizens of Indiana and not Mayor England...we will continue to enforce the laws of the State of Indiana.

Don't worry Mayor England... Freedom Of Speech has your back!
