State Rep. Todd Courser may be the next one kicked out of the MI House GOP Caucus...
The freshman legislator went OFF recently, breaking his silence on the removal of State Rep. Cindy Gamrat from the House GOP caucus in a fierce email Monday, blasting House Speaker Kevin Cotter and questioning the real reasons for Gamrat's removal.
Courser asks people to call Cotter and demand he show the evidence of Gamrat breaching caucus confidentiality, as well as contact their local State Rep. to demand they support Gamrat-and vote against what he calls "Welfare/Ed Increases Over Road" budgets.
Here are the top 10 parts of the email, and below, the full email itself.
" It is now well past time for me to explain the situation that led to Rep Gamrat’s removal and to do my best to set the record straight. I have known Rep Gamrat for several years and have witnessed her in very difficult political circumstances and she has always acted with the utmost integrity, respect, and honor in all of her dealings even with those who are dead set against her efforts to advance liberty and freedom. Even in these current moments, as she is being maligned and abused by the leadership, she has acted with complete respect and decorum in her defense of herself. I have absolutely no doubt that the charges, put forward by the Speaker, against her are false and that she has in no way breached the "confidentiality of the caucus."
"The Speaker acted without doing any of the proper steps required by his position of leadership…and his timing and actions since should cause all to be concerned about what motivated his actions in the first place..."
"(T)he Speaker of the State House has removed Rep. Gamrat from caucus, claiming wrongdoing and yet offering no evidence as such; instead he has stated that he there have been multiple incidents, but offered no evidence and has simply engaged assassination of her reputation and character. All on the eve of the lead up to the “Welfare Increases Over Road Funding” budget hitting the floor for debate; essentially silencing a huge fiscally conservative voice from the caucus where the debates on the budget would occur. The timing on the eve of the budget debates in the caucus and on the floor of the House is more than a little suspect…the forces of tyranny are attempting to silence a huge voice for liberty on the eve of the budget increases, just as amendments were being prepared to expose the "Welfare/Ed Increases Over Roads Funding" and as we were preparing to push for a total Defunding of Planned Parenthood and any organization that performs abortions!"
"The Speaker will probably remain in his official position, but due to his initial actions, and his treatment since, against Rep Gamrat, he is right now at risk of losing the trust and confidence of many members of the caucus and of course the public at large."
"I have waited for the Speaker to step up and do the right thing in providing a process to resolve the situation for everyone involved...His actions in this situation seem to be off beat and without any warning and are certainly not the actions of a servant leader; they are the shameless actions of a bully bent on abusing his power to silence in the caucus a voice of liberty; my hope and prayer is that the Speaker will change course and make some good steps this week to bring resolution to this situation for all involved."
"Those who remain silent share in the actions of the leadership and I am just not at all equipped to stand by while someone is stripped of their membership without cause. I realize he and she are both now acting and reacting to each other in their attempts to defend themselves and this has led to the whole mess being played out publicly. Unfortunately the Speaker has taken no lead up process steps; his removal of her, was at best, a knee jerk unfounded unilateral action, and were not the proper steps of a true servant leader"
"There is a proper biblical way to handle such disputes; that process doesn't include destroying a member of your group publicly and without providing any evidence of such wrongdoing. The proper way to handle such an incident is to first, if he had issue with Rep. Gamrat's actions, he should have given her a warning on his specific charges, which would be followed by an opportunity to correct the situation, then if the situation was not corrected then further actions would be taken in private before he threw her out publicly, without warning, and without evidence being offered to back up his decision. "
"The caucus is supposed to be held in secret and everyone in attendance has no doubt that it is indeed a private secret meeting and that nothing is to be shared about what has or has not transpired. In this particular case, we as reps received notices of what was called a "budget workshop" to be held off site at a lobbyist facility and the notice in no way described this event as a caucus. As a matter of fact, it was held in the offices of a lobbyist firm with the doors open to the lobbyists and support staff of the lobbying firm just outside the open doors; many of us didn't fit into the room, myself included. Also, it has been said that a reporter was even present in the room listening to part of the presentation, before he was removed. I didn't know it was a caucus and there were several others who did not know as well."
"The Speaker at that moment stated she was being removed for the post, but then a couple of days later, said to the media that it was for multiple breaches of the confidentiality of the caucus; not for the Facebook post at all. If so, then why no warnings? And why the sudden urge to remove her at that moment? He of course had never brought these multiple breaches to her, nor to the caucus, nor had he ever given her a warning, nor has he since met with Rep. Gamrat to inform her of the evidence against her. He has simply used his position to attempt to malign and destroy her reputation and her credibility in the media."
"If there is a meeting to resolve this and the issues surrounding it, then Rep Gamrat should be afforded the opportunity to have those she trusts hear the charges and evidence being brought by the Speaker or the Speaker needs to just bring the evidence out so the public can see his reasoning on the "confidentiality issue" and make the determination for themselves. There just isn't anything American about this sort of leadership action taking place without evidence being offered to support it."
Here is the email in full:
She has my 100% support! I Stand W/ Rep Gamrat!
I appreciate all of your prayers on this, for Rep Gamrat, for Speaker Cotter, for myself, and for "The Caucus;” just prayer for the hearts and minds of all involved; that there would be a spirit of restoration would take hold; at this point that does not look likely. People have a right to know what is happening in their State House; there should be transparency; good or bad, right or wrong, caucus or not, the people have a right to know what the power of their State House is being used for and who it is being used against. Yes there should be a place for strategy/tactics to be discussed privately, but when that same power is used to malign/destroy a duly elected public official of the State House, without a showing of cause, there is nothing honorable in it and such an abuse of power and process is shameful.
I have felt my leadership role requires me to bring these sorts of abuses to you, and to be unhindered by the political consequences to myself as I do, even when it is hard and regardless of what the costs might be; it is my responsibility to bring it and to explain it to you. And as always, it is your responsibility what you do with this information, insight, and understanding. It is now well past time for me to explain the situation that led to Rep Gamrat’s removal and to do my best to set the record straight. I have known Rep Gamrat for several years and have witnessed her in very difficult political circumstances and she has always acted with the utmost integrity, respect, and honor in all of her dealings even with those who are dead set against her efforts to advance liberty and freedom. Even in these current moments, as she is being maligned and abused by the leadership, she has acted with complete respect and decorum in her defense of herself. I have absolutely no doubt that the charges, put forward by the Speaker, against her are false and that she has in no way breached the "confidentiality of the caucus."
Please call her office and tell her you support her efforts to restore some sanity to Lansing; she needs your prayers and your support! Her phone number is 269-605-0517 and her email is cindy@cindygamrat.com
Also please call the Speaker; His phone contact is 517-373-1789 (the rest of the House Caucus members contact info is at the bottom) – let them know how you feel about:
1. Rep Gamrat being thrown out of caucus
2. A budget that increases but prioritizes “Welfare/Ed Increases Over Road Funding”...
3. A budget increasing overall again...more for Welfare/Ed but less for roads…
4. And of course funding for abortions…
The Speaker acted without doing any of the proper steps required by his position of leadership…and his timing and actions since should cause all to be concerned about what motivated his actions in the first place...
"To not speak is to speak and to not act is to act..."
This is a long email, but I believe it is a critical email for those who want to understand what the conservative cause is up against; it is not the people or the institutions as much as it is this spirit of “expanding the centralization of governmental power” over any adherence to the Constitution, sound governance, lower spending and less taxes. Unfortunately in some important parts of the party we have a spirit of “progressive top down central planning” wrapped in claims of a conservative mantle; all the while spending more, taxing more, and stripping away more of our civil liberties.
Many of you are already aware, though some are not, that the Speaker of the State House has removed Rep. Gamrat from caucus, claiming wrongdoing and yet offering no evidence as such; instead he has stated that he there have been multiple incidents, but offered no evidence and has simply engaged assassination of her reputation and character. All on the eve of the lead up to the “Welfare Increases Over Road Funding” budget hitting the floor for debate; essentially silencing a huge fiscally conservative voice from the caucus where the debates on the budget would occur. The timing on the eve of the budget debates in the caucus and on the floor of the House is more than a little suspect…
I rarely ask you to make calls into the State House, but today I am asking; the forces of tyranny are attempting to silence a huge voice for liberty on the eve of the budget increases, just as amendments were being prepared to expose the "Welfare/Ed Increases Over Roads Funding" and as we were preparing to push for a total Defunding of Planned Parenthood and any organization that performs abortions!
The Speaker will probably remain in his official position, but due to his initial actions, and his treatment since, against Rep Gamrat, he is right now at risk of losing the trust and confidence of many members of the caucus and of course the public at large.
I have waited for the Speaker to step up and do the right thing in providing a process to resolve the situation for everyone involved. I have attempted to bring some good movement in the background to clear Rep Gamrat's reputation and to allow Speaker the opportunity to change course by allowing her to return to the caucus, but it is now nearly two weeks later and the Speaker and the members of the caucus now appear to be content to move along and forget that he has acted to destroy her and her reputation without providing any evidence of wrongdoing. His actions in this situation seem to be off beat and without any warning and are certainly not the actions of a servant leader; they are the shameless actions of a bully bent on abusing his power to silence in the caucus a voice of liberty; my hope and prayer is that the Speaker will change course and make some good steps this week to bring resolution to this situation for all involved.
Those who remain silent share in the actions of the leadership and I am just not at all equipped to stand by while someone is stripped of their membership without cause. I realize he and she are both now acting and reacting to each other in their attempts to defend themselves and this has led to the whole mess being played out publicly.

There is a proper biblical way to handle such disputes; that process doesn't include destroying a member of your group publicly and without providing any evidence of such wrongdoing. The proper way to handle such an incident is to first, if he had issue with Rep. Gamrat's actions, he should have given her a warning on his specific charges, which would be followed by an opportunity to correct the situation, then if the situation was not corrected then further actions would be taken in private before he threw her out publicly, without warning, and without evidence being offered to back up his decision.
The media theater has swirled around all of this with lots of speciation - Is this a targeted elimination of one of the most conservative leaders? Or simply a misunderstanding gone bad? Or has she actually broken the rules of the confidentiality of caucus? As time has gone on it is looking less and less like a simple misunderstanding and more and more targeted and timed.
Background…
Speaker Cotter removed Rep Gamrat and stated originally that she had made a Facebook post against caucus rules, and then changed his story to state it was due to multiple breaches of confidentiality. If his action of personally throwing her out of the "budget workshop" was not due to the Facebook post then why did he throw her out personally from the event?
Here is her Facebook post...
"Listening to subcommittees reviewing their budgets. How do we get to free market solutions when our starting point is Medicaid and more and more government programs being funded, from daycares to dental programs to planned parenthood."So why is the Speaker choosing to do this to Rep. Gamrat at this particular time? Is it about...
1. Her Facebook post?
2. A series of multiple offenses of breaches of confidentiality as claimed, but with no evidence presented?
3. Her stand against an out of control and growing budget?
4. Her stand against Planned Parenthood funding in this budget?
5. Her efforts to put forward amendments to this budget to move spending from more for "Welfare/Ed spending less to roads."
5. Her current party campaign to become the National Committeewoman?
6. Her efforts to stop "Proposal 1," the increase in sales tax scheduled for May 5th?
7. His first steps, performed badly, just didn't allow him to back up and save his own reputation and so it forced both to then fight it out defending themselves publicly.
Or is it all of the above?
Background on "The Caucus" - Most do not know what a caucus is nor why it matters, so a little background is required here. The Republicans in the State House are all members of what is called "The Caucus," it is a club of sorts, where the bills of the day are discussed in an open and frank way. The Democrats have a similar arrangement. It is a group that meets in private in a back room of the State House. I will say personally aside from this incident the caucus has been an enjoyable way to discuss the business of the day; unfortunately in this situation it has turned into something less worthy. The Caucus operates with rules, with the underlying rule that "what happens in caucus stays in caucus." Essentially in this environment the bills are discussed and the leadership of the party can give "suggestions" and "requests" to the members of the caucus; and even marching orders on certain topics. The caucus is supposed to be held in secret and everyone in attendance has no doubt that it is indeed a private secret meeting and that nothing is to be shared about what has or has not transpired.
In this particular case, we as reps received notices of what was called a "budget workshop" to be held off site at a lobbyist facility and the notice in no way described this event as a caucus. As a matter of fact, it was held in the offices of a lobbyist firm with the doors open to the lobbyists and support staff of the lobbying firm just outside the open doors; many of us didn't fit into the room, myself included. Also, it has been said that a reporter was even present in the room listening to part of the presentation, before he was removed. I didn't know it was a caucus and there were several others who did not know as well. Even so, Rep. Gamrat in her Facebook post from the event in no way revealed neither anything of substance nor anything confidential pertaining to the caucus or the budget workshop.
The Speaker at that moment stated she was being removed for the post, but then a couple of days later, said to the media that it was for multiple breaches of the confidentiality of the caucus; not for the Facebook post at all. If so, then why no warnings? And why the sudden urge to remove her at that moment? He of course had never brought these multiple breaches to her, nor to the caucus, nor had he ever given her a warning, nor has he since met with Rep. Gamrat to inform her of the evidence against her. He has simply used his position to attempt to malign and destroy her reputation and her credibility in the media.
I have enjoyed caucus and understand the need to have a spot where Representatives can have open and frank discussions on legislation, but the idea of a group that would remain silent as the Speaker destroys a person without offering any intermediate steps or evidence is disturbing. There is nothing honorable about remaining silent when a person is being spitefully used and abused and their reputation is being destroyed by one in power.
Servant Leadership must be above reproach, honest and forthright in it's dealings with it's members and also be totally aware and sensitive in how its words and actions affect its members and the public at large. Our Speaker is at this moment very close to losing his mantle of leadership and the respect of the members. Once honor and respect are replaced by withholding info, denying the free speech of the members to come out and support a member, and finally the possibility of outright lying about the member and the charges against the member, then the Speaker’s credibility is on very shaky ground. If there is a issue with a member then there should have been a quiet process to review the issue and come to a determination.
That did not happen in any way. Leadership must also be self-controlled; leadership must be ever vigilant to not overstep in accusing a member without offering proof of such breach, in this case "of confidentiality.” Finally, Leadership cannot, if it is to remain with the goodwill of its members and those who support the members, throw out a member without some amount of intermediate steps to show it's self-restraint on charges without evidence and a thoughtful process for doing so, or it risks greatly losing its credibility to all. Regardless of how this is spun, and I hope this isn't the case, but it is looking more and more like a witch hunt and an clear abuse of power.
The Speaker is at this moment on very shaky ground; officially, he will probably retain his position, but he will very likely lose, and has lost, at least some of the confidence of the members in the way he has brought this punishment forward without providing any evidence, or a way for Representative Gamrat to review or see the evidence he says he has before he has taken these very public steps to politically destroy her. I hate to say this, but this is beginning to look very self-serving, done at a critical moment in the budget process, and will be interpreted by a great many as if he is simply lying and has no evidence.
I am honestly not sure how the caucus will or should handle this, but I am hopeful that cooler heads will look at this and figure out a way to:
1. Redeem Representative Gamrat from her Speaker-imposed exile (she has been maligned and smeared publicly by "our" elected leadership - that means we in the caucus share in the stain on this if it has been done poorly and with ill intent),
2. then hopefully there is some way salvage the Speaker's credibility from the situation he has gotten himself into,
3. and finally also salvage the original spirit of the caucus.
Publicly and privately there are only a few options here for how this will all end up looking.
1. First, he has possibly "just failed to do a proper process, had overstepped, had become a bit overzealous in his actions and has now corrected it."
2. Second, "he is doing this with political or official motivations to remove her."
3. Third, regretfully "He is telling the truth" (if so he should bring his evidence to justify his actions and put this to rest).
4. Finally, even more regretfully, "he is lying and now attempting to cover it up." Unfortunately, if he doesn't bring out his case, regardless if he is telling the truth or lying, he will be viewed as lying and will have lost the respect and admiration of the public and a great many members of the caucus, on who's trust and confidence his leadership rests.
5. None of this looks good internally or publicly; I do absolutely hope this can all find a good result for all involved and I am praying to that end.
"To not speak is to speak and to not act is to act..." At this point, whether we like it or not, all who are in the caucus have responsibility for this due simply to our silence. The members of the caucus who have not spoken up about this do not stand absolved of their responsibility; nor do I; it looks as if we all are agreeing with the Speaker and supporting his position; I do not. I would like this resolved well for all involved. I am again writing this to hopefully move this to a good result this week. I have received no less than two dozen requests for interviews on this topic and to this point I have been very careful to not accelerate and inflame the situation further; but I felt it was time for the public to know and they have a right to know what is being done in their State House; I have felt that my entry into this right after it happened would not give this situation it's best chance at being resolved well for all involved, but it is now time to no longer sit silently while no evidence is offered, and while evil is afoot. None of this sits well with me, nor should it sit well with anyone to see someone destroyed without evidence, so if there is evidence of her wrong doing it needs to come out so this can be put to bed, or if no evidence is offered then to me this should all be put to bed and she should be allowed back into the caucus immediately. If there is a meeting to resolve this and the issues surrounding it, then Rep Gamrat should be afforded the opportunity to have those she trusts hear the charges and evidence being brought by the Speaker or the Speaker needs to just bring the evidence out so the public can see his reasoning on the "confidentiality issue" and make the determination for themselves. There just isn't anything American about this sort of leadership action taking place without evidence being offered to support it.
Many of you know Rep. Gamrat and understand what a huge warrior she has been in the cause of liberty; it has been no secret that she has stood firm and strong against the onslaught of the progressive march. In all of this, and in every battle where she has been placed, she has always shown herself to be completely respectful and honorable in her dealings, even with those who are set on advancing the progressive march; and when they have not acted in the same manor. Many have tried to speculate if there was a political motivation to her being personally removed by the speaker.
The liberal progressive establishment has so many things happening, especially the increasing of the budget to fund more entitlements at the expense of the roads, maybe it was all done to sideline and distract the cause of liberty while they moved their plans down the tracks to passage; if so I would hope the Speaker will now take a step back and correct the steps and re-admit her to the caucus. Many times those in power will simply attack at a moment of critical importance so that the opposition is distracted and has to then spend its time defending itself rather than attacking the plans to steal away more of our lives through more spending, more taxing, and more destruction of our civil liberties. Please join me in supporting Rep. Gamrat and resisting the tyranny of those who would further erode our precious liberty!
In Christ Alone...
