(Statehouse) – Members of the Indiana legislature took the oath of office during the recent Organization Day at the Statehouse.
On the Indiana House Republicans’ weekly “Around the House” podcast, newly sworn-in State Representative Garrett Bascom of Lawrenceburg said lawmakers will reconvene on January 8 to begin considering new legislation.
“It’s a great honor to be the representative of House District 68 and I’m beyond excited to start this upcoming session,” Bascom said. “As a state legislator, I’ll advocate for greater access to mental health resources, ensure we maintain a strong and efficient justice system, and bring the voices of my constituents to the Statehouse.”
Bascom is a freshman lawmaker who was elected last month.
