STATEHOUSE (Dec. 11, 2023) – With Indiana's lawmakers set to return to the Statehouse on Jan. 8 for the start of the 2024 legislative session, State Reps. David Abbott (R-Rome City) and Chris Judy (R-Fort Wayne) released online surveys to gather constituents' feedback on important issues.

To get started, local residents can visit Abbott's website at in.gov/h18 or Judy's website at in.gov/h83 and click on the red "Take My Survey" button.

"I encourage Hoosiers to provide feedback on the issues that matter the most to them as I prepare for the 2024 legislative session," Abbott said. "Having a better idea of your priorities helps me while navigating bill proposals and drafting legislation."

To complete online surveys, constituents 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.

"Staying informed about what issues that Hoosiers in House District 83 care about most, helps me when crafting new legislation," Judy said. "I look forward to hearing from many constituents through this survey and during session."

The 2024 legislative session begins Jan. 8 and must conclude by March 14. Hoosiers can stay informed and engaged by visiting iga.in.gov, where they can watch session and committee meetings, read proposed bills, and view calendars and agendas.

To stay updated during the legislative session, Hoosiers can sign up for their legislator's email newsletter by visiting IndianaHouseRepublicans.com and entering their email address under "Subscribe to eNews" or by calling 317-232-9600.
