STATEHOUSE (Dec. 16, 2024) – State Rep. Garrett Bascom (R-Lawrenceburg) recently received appointments to serve as a member of three key House committees.

Bascom, elected to his first term in November, will serve as a member of the House Courts and Criminal Code Committee, the House Judiciary Committee and the House Local Government Committee.

"Indiana relies on an efficient and balanced court system, and these committees are at the forefront of considering legislation to further improve our state's legal infrastructure," Bascom said. "I'm ready to hit the ground running and bring my experiences from state government and private practice to these new appointments."

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.

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.
