Former House Speaker Glen Casada, R-Franklin, today called members of the Registry of Election Finance “biased” for subpoenaing him about a political action committee allegedly created at the behest of his former chief of staff. Speaking at an event in Williamson County, Casada denied knowing anything about the PAC, Tennessee Journal reports. Rep. Brandon Ogles, R-Franklin, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, was also at the event. He said leaders of that committee are talking about conducting a “deep dive” into the powers of the campaign finance board’s powers, especially its subpoena power. Casada is retiring from the House at the end of this term to run for Williamson County clerk.
