For Star subscribers: The House speaker blasts a Chandler lawmaker for inviting someone 'to present unsubstantiated and defamatory allegations'' at a legislative hearing on elections. Senate president and House speaker also blame each other.
Howard Fischer PHOENIX — House Speaker Ben Toma blasted a Chandler lawmaker for inviting someone"to present unsubstantiated and defamatory allegations'' at a legislative hearing last week on elections.
The hearing featured Scottsdale insurance agent Jacqueline Breger, who was given nearly 45 minutes to accuse dozens of officials and private citizens of taking bribes. Less clear is whether the speaker will take any action against the first-term lawmaker. He has unilateral ability to remove her from the Committee on Municipal Oversight and Elections.Toma is in a difficult political position. He needs the cooperation of every one of the 31 House Republicans to pass the GOP agenda. He did not address whether Harris will be removed from committees or otherwise disciplined.
She also presented documents to the committee that listed others — including Toma — as guilty of corruption. But Rogers also made it clear she was not saying the unsubstantiated claims that Breger presented were unfounded. She said it's just not the job of lawmakers to reach such a conclusion.
