STATEHOUSE (Dec. 13, 2024) – State Reps. Craig Haggard (R-Mooresville) and Peggy Mayfield (R-Martinsville) 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. Haggard will serve as a member of the House Veterans Affairs and Public Safety Committee, the House Environmental Affairs Committee, and the House Roads and Transportation Committee.
"Supporting our veterans and ensuring safe, efficient infrastructure is critical to Indiana's success," Haggard said. "I'm committed to addressing the needs of our communities and working on policies that make a meaningful difference for Hoosiers."
Mayfield was reappointed as vice chair of the House Public Policy Committee. She will also serve as a member of the House Ways and Means Committee and the House Insurance Committee. Mayfield said committees are responsible for vetting bills, including hearing public testimony and considering amendments.
"Our state's public policies and insurance regulations play a major role in the lives of everyday Hoosiers," Mayfield said. "I'm excited to dive into these important issues and work with my colleagues to enact meaningful, commonsense legislation."
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.
