Senate: We won't pay Lavigne's bills

My colleague Graham Richardson last night reported that Senator Raymond Lavigne, under fire for allegedly misusing public funds, wanted taxpayers to pick up the legal tab he’s ringing up to clear his name.

Some Senators were watching last night, apparently, and today this press release came forth from the Red Chamber:

“The Senate wishes to confirm that the Committee on Internal Economy, Budgets and Administration last week refused to underwrite the legal expenses of Senator Raymond Lavigne.”
