Another state lawmaker from northern Indiana has decided to leave his seat early.

State Rep. Duane Cheney of Portage submitted his resignation Wednesday, saying he has so much going on in his life and that his mother has just entered hospice care.

Cheney’s resignation comes just days after fellow northern Indiana Dem. Bob Kuzman stepped down to become a lobbyist.

He’s the fourth lawmakers to leave since the session ended, and it’s a better than even bet that we’ll see even more over the next few weeks.
