State Rep. Bruce Borders (R-Jasonville) recently received appointments to serve as a member of three key House committees.

Borders will serve as vice chair of the House Local Government Committee. He will also serve as a member of the House Insurance Committee, and the House Commerce, Small Business and Economic Development Committee.

"Our communities thrive when local governments, businesses and families have the tools they need to succeed," Borders said. "I'm honored to continue working on legislation that strengthens Indiana's economy and protects Hoosiers' livelihoods."

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.

Borders encourages constituents to visit in.gov/h45 to sign up to receive e-newsletter updates about what’s happening at the Statehouse throughout the legislative session and beyond.
