When thinking about Indiana's key industries, advanced manufacturing, agriculture and pharmaceuticals may come to mind. Many of these sectors have flourished in the Hoosier state because of our business friendly climate, which makes it possible for these job creators to expand their operations. We're at a time, when once again, Indiana can position itself as a place for economic development with the creation of a film and media tax credit, and I authored legislation to do just that.
Schools do a tremendous job protecting our students, implementing safety measures like security check points, requiring additional background checks for parents and hiring school resource officers. These are great preventative measures, but there's always room for improvement. This is why I proposed legislation that would allow school corporations, along with sheriff departments, to apply for funds to improve communication and response times for local and state agencies in the rare event of an emergency.

While this session is unique due to steps being taken to keep everyone healthy and safe, I remain committed to being your voice at the Statehouse. Over the next several months as we consider new laws, I am dedicated to supporting policies to ensure Indiana comes back stronger than ever before.
As I looked back at the last Manning Memo I wrote at the conclusion of the 2020 legislative session as the COVID-19 pandemic was just taking hold, I don’t think any of us could have imagined all that has transpired in the past nine months. This was quite the year, and we are all still dealing with a lot of challenges. But I am proud of our community, and I am proud of Indiana. We are blessed to live in the Hoosier state.
Even amid tremendous changes, Indiana is in a solid position entering the 2021 legislative session. Hoosiers are getting back to work, the state remains fiscally strong and the legislature is working to ensure public health and safety for all Hoosiers. While this session will certainly be different than previous years, I remain committed to working transparently and efficiently as we take a deep dive into important issues facing our communities.
Last week, I joined my fellow lawmakers in Indianapolis for the start of the 2021 legislative session. While this session is unlike any others due to the pandemic, we are still hard at work tackling important issues like passing a responsibly balanced budget, supporting students and educators, improving public health and more.
