STATEHOUSE (Nov. 22, 2016) – State Rep. Randy Frye (R-Greensburg) joined fellow legislators at the Statehouse today for the Indiana General Assembly’s Organization Day.
Organization Day occurs annually in November. State lawmakers use the day to gather together, meet new members and prepare for the upcoming legislative session. Following the general election earlier this month, all re-elected members and member-elects were also sworn into office. The day also marks the first official meeting of the 120th Indiana General Assembly for the next two years.
“During the upcoming session, there are several issues we plan to address including a long-term sustainable solution for our infrastructure and creating a balanced budget,” Frye said. “As a former firefighter, I will promote the health and safety of our first responders.”
House and Senate lawmakers also announced they will team up to support Habitat for Humanity of Indiana to raise awareness about the need for affordable housing. This year, members and staff will participate in a new and used tool drive, which will help Habitat volunteers build houses across the state.
The 2017 legislative session begins in early January and by law must conclude by April 30.
