Statement from State Sen. John Crane
State Sen. John Crane (R-Avon) made the following statement regarding the conclusion of the 2024 legislative session:

STATEHOUSE (MARCH 8, 2024) – "As we conclude the 2024 legislative session, I reflect on my time at the Indiana Senate. I am pleased with what I've been able to be a part of during my time here.

"As the ranking member on the Senate Education and Career Development Committee, I am pleased that Senate Enrolled Act 1, has made its way to the governor's desk. SEA 1 would ensure Hoosier students get the best reading education by providing Science of Reading instruction and ensuring struggling students get the support they need to succeed. Literacy is a vital skill that everyone should have, and this legislation will help our students achieve a strong foundation for their future.

"I am proud to have been a part of history in 2022 when Indiana held a special session and passed Senate Enrolled Act 1, which outlawed the vast majority of abortions in Indiana.

"Serving Indiana and Senate District 24 has been very rewarding. I made a promise to serve this state to the best of my ability with God as my guide. I was also informed by my four C's – core values, the constitution, my constituents, and my caucus.

"I am so thankful for my time in the Indiana Senate. I will remember my colleagues and my time here very fondly. God Bless Indiana."
