Natural Resources Commission members resign — blame top-down decision-making

Two veteran members of the Indiana Natural Resources Commission, including the long-standing chair, have stepped down, criticizing Governor Mike Braun’s administration for undermining citizen engagement and diminishing the Commission's collaboration with the Department of Natural Resources. Their resignation highlights concerns about governance and transparency, suggesting a broader issue with top-down decision-making processes. This shake-up could impact future environmental policies and the administration's approach to public involvement.
