Governor Andy Beshear.

And a growing chorus of prominent Democratic leaders say Daniel Grossberg should resign from the Kentucky General Assembly.

Grossberg is a Democratic state representative from Louisville's 30th House district.

The new calls come after new reporting in the Lexington Herald-Leader that a Louisville strip club banned Grossberg and allegations he offered to pay a dancer for sex.

This is after earlier allegations that Grossberg sent women inappropriate texts.

Here's the governor this morning.

I want to once again state clearly and unequivocally that Representative Grossberg should resign.

He should resign.

That soundbite is courtesy of Wave three in Louisville.

In addition to the governor, Lieutenant Governor Jacqueline Coleman, Democratic Party chair Coleman Eldridge and the House Democratic Caucus called for Grossberg to resign.

The caucus also voted to expel him.

Goldberg's attorney says he denies the allegations and will remain in office.

For more on the new calls for Representative Grossberg to step down, watch Bill Bryant and a panel of veteran Kentucky reporters tonight on comment on Kentucky.
