Indianapolis City-County Council member Jesse Brown made waves outside a fundraising event for Mayor Joe Hogsett, calling for a change in leadership and questioning whether the mayor is running for a fourth term. Brown criticized Hogsett for various issues, including failing to address sexual abuse scandals and adequately plow streets during winter. He took pictures of potential donors entering the event, warning that supporting Hogsett would result in boycotts. Brown, who was ousted from the Democratic caucus for exposing leadership failures, urged the mayor to resign and allow for new Democratic leadership. While Hogsett previously said he wouldn’t run for a fourth term, Brown argued that the mayor’s fundraising would influence his successor. Brown believes the political elite are propping up Hogsett, preventing a true democratic choice for Indianapolis residents. The mayor, who took office in 2016, is currently serving his third term, which ends in 2028. The event highlighted growing tensions within the Democratic party in Indianapolis and raised questions about the future of leadership in the city.
