STATEHOUSE (June 29, 2017) — State Sen. Travis Holdman (R-Markle) has been appointed by Senate President Pro Tem David Long (R-Fort Wayne) to serve as the Chair of the Interim Study Committee on Financial Institutions and Insurance during the summer and fall months to help prepare for the 2018 session of the General Assembly. He will also serve on the following study committees:
“Study committees serve as a valuable resource for lawmakers to prepare for the next legislative session,” Holdman said. “The three committees I’m serving on this year will discuss various topics including laws relating to incorporated businesses, policy changes to Indiana election laws, and a comprehensive review and evaluation of all tax incentives the state uses to attract new employers.”
When Indiana’s part-time legislature is not in session, lawmakers serve on interim study committees that meet to review the state’s top issues, as identified by the General Assembly during the prior legislative session.
Study committee topics are assigned by the bipartisan Legislative Council, comprised of 16 voting members — eight from the Senate and eight from the House of Representatives.
