STATEHOUSE (Dec. 23, 2024) – With the next legislative session quickly approaching, State Reps. Stephen Bartels (R-Eckerty) and Chris May (R-Bedford) encourage Hoosiers to take their online surveys and offer feedback on important issues.
To start, Hoosiers should visit their state representative's webpage and click on the "Take My Survey" button.
Residents of House District 74 can find Bartels' legislative survey at in.gov/74 and residents of House District 65 can find May's at in.gov/h65.
"This survey is a great opportunity to share your opinions on a variety of issues," Bartels said. "These responses will help me better represent District 74."
To complete online surveys, Hoosiers must be a resident of the district and submit it by the Dec. 31 deadline. Constituents can check which House district they reside in by visiting the Indiana General Assembly's website at iga.in.gov, clicking on "Find Your Legislator" on the homepage and entering a home address. Constituents can also expect to receive or may have already received a copy of their state representative's survey mailer in their mailbox.
"I encourage the Hoosiers I represent at the Statehouse to provide feedback heading into session and stay engaged throughout the process," May said. "These surveys help legislators get a better understanding of the issues affecting constituents to find potential solutions."
The 2025 legislative session begins Jan. 8 and must conclude by April 29. Hoosiers can follow session proceedings at iga.in.gov, where they can find information on proposed legislation and watch livestreams of committee hearings and session.
Hoosiers also can stay updated during the legislative session by signing up for their legislator's email newsletter at IndianaHouseRepublicans.com and entering their email address under "Subscribe to eNews," or by calling 317-232-9600.
