STATEHOUSE (Dec. 16, 2016) — State Rep. Mike Aylesworth (R-Hebron) was recently selected to serve on the House Committee on Local Government.

He was also named to the House Committee on Environmental Affairs and the House Committee on Natural Resources. Additionally, Aylesworth will be serving as vice chair of the House Select Committee on Government Reduction.

“As committees address policy areas such as local government and Indiana’s natural environment, I will be able to contribute my input based on my experience and background,” Aylesworth said. “I’m eager to continue to be a strong voice for Northwest Indiana during the committee process as we tackle several key issues this legislative session.”

Standing committee assignments are made biennially after each election. On Jan. 4, House lawmakers will convene at 1:30 p.m. in the House Chamber for the first day of the 2017 legislative session.
