ND Legislators Calling For Rep Simons' Resignation, Expulsion

(Bismarck, ND)  --  Legislation is being drafted to begin the expulsion process against state Representative Luke Simons, as lawmakers call for him to resign.  One legislator has also come forward with experiences she's had with misconduct by Simons.  Representative Emily O'Brien says Simons harassed her and led to her having her desk moved away from him on the House floor.  She and others are calling for more people to make formal reports of their experiences.  Previous informal allegations have been made by Capitol staff members, but no other formal complaints have been made.
