Oldenburg, IN—State Senator Jean Leising gathered with fellow legislators at the Statehouse for Organization Day – the ceremonial start of the Indiana General Assembly.
Organization Day marks the annual first roll call of all state lawmakers. This day also provides each Senate and House of Representatives caucus with the opportunity to gather before session officially reconvenes in January. By state law, the 2020 session will conclude on or before March 14.
“I am eager to begin working with fellow lawmakers in the 2020 legislative session to address key issues that are impacting our communities,” Leising said. “Specifically, I am looking forward to addressing ILEARN and school accountability. As a member of the Senate Committee on Education and Career Development, I intend to work to keep this year’s ILEARN scores from having a negative impact on schools, educators and students.”
As the 2020 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 via email at [email protected] or by phone at 800-382-9467.
