STATEHOUSE (Dec. 15, 2022) – State Reps. Matt Hostettler (R-Patoka) and Cindy Ledbetter (R-Newburgh) recently received appointments to serve on key House standing committees at the Statehouse.
House standing committee appointments are made by the Indiana House Speaker biennially after the November election and are in effect for the duration of members' two-year terms. Hostettler will serve as a member of the House Employment, Labor and Pensions Committee, the House Natural Resources Committee and the House Public Health Committee.
"Supporting hardworking Hoosiers and local, small-business owners remains a top priority for me," Hostettler said. "I'll continue to look for ways to reduce the size of government, and cut regulations and red tape."
Ledbetter will serve as a member of the House Family, Children and Human Affairs Committee, the House Government and Regulatory Committee, and the House Public Health Committee, which will all begin their work with the start of the 2023 legislative session. She was also appointed Assistant Majority Caucus Chair, a House Republican leadership position.
"As a nurse practitioner, I look forward to leaning on my experience in the health care industry and my understanding of patient needs to serve on the House Public Health Committee," Ledbetter said. "Affordability and access to care are two critical challenges that we have to address, and I look forward to representing our district on these committees at the Statehouse this session."
House lawmakers are scheduled to convene for session at 1:30 p.m. on Jan. 9. Hoosiers can visit iga.in.gov to find legislation, view calendars, and watch committee meetings and session.
