Congressman Joe Morelle's campaign has released screen shots of text messages that appear to support his claim he did not pressure RIT to fire County Legislator Sabrina LaMar.
The messages show Morelle discussing LaMar with RIT's head of government affairs.
While Morelle inquires in the messages about LaMar's appearance on a social media video with his Democratic primary opponent, the messages don't demand LaMar be fired.
LaMar says she heard recently that Morelle was bragging he tried to get her fired.
