Indianapolis, IN — Gov. Eric Holcomb has signed into law State Representative Randy Frye’s (R-Greensburg) legislation that makes it easier for police and fire departments across the state to hire more Hoosiers. Frye’s bill eliminates a requirement for members of police and fire departments to live within a 50-mile radius of where they serve. Frye said his legislation allows police officers and firefighters to live anywhere in the state as long as they have adequate means of transportation to and from work and can receive calls from their employer. House Enrolled Act 1033 goes into effect July 1.
