Chamber of Commerce vs. Conservatism: Indiana Senate Primary Pits Marlin Stutzman Against Todd Young

Two Congressmen elected in the Tea Party wave election of 2010 are battling to be the Republican nominee for the US Senate in Indiana.

Congressman Rep. Marlin Stutzman and Congressman Rep. Todd Young have taken two very different courses since joining the House of Representatives nearly six years ago. Congressman Stutzman has been a standout member of conservative Congressman Rep. Jim Jordan’s House Freedom Caucus and is endorsed by bulwark conservatives like Senator Sen. Rand Paul and Senator Sen. Mike Lee.

Congressman Young, on the other hand, is part of the “No Labels” group and is being supported by Senate Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell and the amnesty-pushing US Chamber of Commerce.

Voters in Indiana will not only choose between business mogul Donald Trump and Senator Sen. Ted Cruz Tuesday; they’ll be the deciding factor in the next big battle in the ongoing war between the grassroots and the establishment.

“I was in the Indiana legislature and was a conservative there,” Congessman Stutzman told Breitbart News on Friday. “When I got to DC, I just saw that the system is broken there and Republican leadership and John Boehner said we were going to fight and we never did. Todd Young is trying to run as this ‘effective conservative’, that he is getting things done in Washington, and he’s not…. We’ve not put a stop to Obama hardly at all.”

Voted for Stutzman. I won’t support anyone supported by the ICofC. They are one of the biggest pushers of the LGBT agenda in the state not to mention open borders. I’m surprised Young hooked up with them, but I guess big money talks. McConnell’s group is also backing young.
