Madison (WKOW) - Senate Majority Leader Mark Miller may be getting heat from his own party to make things right with Senator Tim Cullen.

Yesterday 25 year veteran Democratic Senator Bob Jauch called on Senator Miller to show more leadership and unify the Democratic caucus, "I'm concerned that it got to this point. It didn't have to, I warned them on it. I thought it was a mistake to let it get to this point."

Cullen left the caucus Tuesday, expressing frustration that Miller never gave him a shot at any serious committee leadership positions.

Jauch also explained why Cullen left, "At some point, Senator Cullen felt, I can take no more of this insult to my district."

Senator Mark Miller did not respond to requests for comment.
