INDIANA – Throughout the summer and fall, Indiana state legislators serve on interim study committees where they work on policy, examine top issues, gather testimony, and recommend legislation ahead of the legislative session kicking off in January. Rep. Chris May will serve on the Interim Study Committee on Courts and the Judiciary, and the Interim Study Committee on Government.

“This is the time of year when lawmakers take a step back to examine some of the most pressing issues facing Hoosiers that could be addressed through future legislation,” May said. “It’s important to work with constituents and subject experts to continue finding ways to make our state better.”

According to May, members of the public are welcomed to attend and testify at committee hearings, which typically occur at the Statehouse in Indianapolis. Hearings are also livestreamed and archived online at iga.in.gov, where committee calendars and meeting agendas are posted.
