MICHIGAN CITY, Ind. (AP) A northwestern Indiana city council has unanimously approved a resolution asking the city s mayor to resign and expressing no confidence in his ability to lead after he made profanity-laced remarks about a Black pastor.
All nine members of the Michigan City Council sponsored the resolution approved Tuesday night.
The pastor, Rev. James Lane, last week publicly released a voicemail message Mayor Duane Parry left for him in which the Republican mayor declined to meet with Lane and a task force seeking a meeting over Parry s recent public admonishment of his Black police chief.
