STATEHOUSE (Dec. 17, 2024) – State Reps. Cindy Ledbetter (R-Newburgh) and Shane Lindauer (R-Jasper) 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. Ledbetter was appointed as a member of the House Family, Children and Human Affairs Committee, the House Insurance Committee and the House Public Health Committee.
"As a nurse practitioner, I look forward to using my experience in the health care industry to help alleviate some of its challenges, such as affordability and access to care," Ledbetter said. "I look forward to representing our district in these committees at the Statehouse this session."
Lindauer was reappointed as chair of the House Natural Resources Committee, and will serve as a member of the House Roads and Transportation Committee. Lindauer said committees are responsible for vetting bills, including hearing public testimony and considering amendments.
"My top priority as chair is for us to be great stewards of the land and natural resources we have been given," Lindauer said. "I'm eager to continue to protect our great land in the Hoosier state responsibly."
House lawmakers are scheduled to convene at 1:30 p.m. on Jan. 8 for the first day of the 2025 legislative session. Hoosiers can visit iga.in.gov to find legislation, view calendars, and watch committee meetings and session.
