“this resolution, S. Res. 506, on behalf of myself and the distinguished Republican leader, Mr. McConnell, concerns a request for representation in a pro se civil action pending in Indiana small claims court. In this action, the plaintiff seeks damages from a former Member of the Indiana House of Representatives arising out of plaintiff's efforts to obtain Social Security benefits. Plaintiff has issued trial subpoenas to former Senator Evan Bayh and an unnamed employee of his former Senate office for testimony arising out of their Senate duties. This resolution would authorize the Senate Legal Counsel to represent Senator Bayh and employees of his former Senate office in this case to seek to quash the subpoenas on the ground that the Senator and his former staff lack personal knowledge of the relevant events and other legal bases. The resolution would also authorize the former constituent services director for Senator Bayh to submit a declaration in support of the motion to quash attesting that she has no knowledge of anyone in the former Senator's office who has any information relevant to this case.”
