(Statehouse) – State Sen. Jean Leising (R-Oldenburg) gathered with fellow legislators Tuesday at the Statehouse for Organization Day – the ceremonial start of the 124th Indiana General Assembly.
Organization Day includes the swearing in of new and returning members of the General Assembly, including Leising, who take the formal oath of office to begin a new term. This day also marks the annual first roll call of all state lawmakers and gives each Senate and House of Representatives caucus the opportunity to organize in preparation for the 2025 legislative session.
By state law, the 2025 session will conclude on or before April 29.
During the first session of each General Assembly, lawmakers craft a comprehensive budget to fund government services for the next two fiscal years.
“I look forward to representing Senate District 42 during another legislative session and discussing important topics, including education,” Leising said. “I plan to continue supporting school counselors by authoring legislation that would ensure more of their time is spent with students.”
As the 2025 session gets underway, Leising encourages residents of Senate District 42 to contact her with any questions or comments they may have. Leising can be reached by filling out a “Contact Me” form online at www.IndianaSenateRepublicans.com/Leising or by phone at 800-382-9467.
