STATEHOUSE (Oct. 26, 2023) – State Reps. Chris Jeter (R-Fishers) and Lori Goss-Reaves (R-Marion) were recently appointed to serve on several key House committees, which will begin at the start of the 2024 legislative session in January.
Jeter will serve as chair of the House Judiciary Committee, and he will continue to serve as a member of the House Courts and Criminal Code Committee and the House Utilities, Energy and Telecommunications Committee.
"As the new chair of the Judiciary Committee, I’m ready to get to work and dive into issues and legislation related to our state's judicial system," Jeter said. "I'm looking forward to leaning into my experience as an attorney and my roles on both the judiciary and courts committees."
Goss-Reaves will serve on the House Public Health Committee, the House Family, Children and Human Affairs Committee, and the House Insurance Committee.
"Committees represent a critical aspect of the law-making process and allow us to meet with stakeholders, policy experts and members of the public to debate and discuss legislation," Goss-Reaves said. "I look forward to using my experience in social work, mental health and education to help Hoosiers in our local communities and across the state."
Committees are responsible for vetting bills, including hearing testimony and considering amendments.
House standing committee meetings take place during the legislative session, which begins in January, and are typically held at the Indiana Statehouse in Indianapolis. To watch committee hearings and session meetings, view calendars and agendas, and track proposals for new laws, visit iga.in.gov.
