STATEHOUSE (April 4, 2023) – A resolution memorializing Congresswoman Jackie Walorski's life unanimously passed the Senate today, said State Sen. Linda Rogers (R-Granger).
Senate Concurrent Resolution 38 honors the memory of Congresswoman Walorski, who served as the U.S. Representative for Indiana's 2nd congressional district from 2013 until her passing in a fatal car crash in August 2022.
"Jackie was a dear friend of mine and we worked closely together on many occasions," Rogers said. "You could always see how passionate she was to serve the people in her district, and you could tell how much she cared. I strive to honor her memory in any way I can, and I hope her family and friends know that Jackie's love for them and their community is not forgotten."
Rogers was joined for the presentation by Walorski's husband Dean Swihart, her mother Martha Walorski, Swihart's pastor John Wilson and his wife Ramona.
