96 A Message from the ChairwomanThe Primary Season Final Stretch

Friends,



We are just over two weeks away from the May 7 primary election day and
we need to continue full steam ahead. Don't forget you can avoid the
lines and vote early! If you are unsure about your voting location you
can use this link to check your voter portal at
[link removed] indianavoters.in.gov.



Already voted? Great! But if you're still itching to make a difference,
please encourage your network to get out and vote. Furthermore, you can
also help by signing up to be a poll worker or encourage others to
volunteer as well. Poll workers are extremely valuable members of the
team that make sure everything runs smoothly at the polling centers. Use
this [link removed] link to find your county and get
in touch with your local Republican County Chair. They'll guide you on
how to lend a hand and help us sprint through the finish line!



Primary elections are a great way to make sure your voice is heard
within the party. We have an excellent slate of candidates up and down
the ballot, so make sure your voice is heard.



Thank you for your continued support and for all that you do.

Chairwoman Anne F. Hathaway

firefighters run toward them to serve their community,” said Gov.
Holcomb. “This investment is long overdue in our state. Nothing could be
more important than for these brave men and women to be both properly
suited and trained. It’s how we can best serve them as they serve us." -

 📚🎓 Improving Education in 2024 🏛️

In just the first 3 months of the fiscal year, the Indiana Economic
Development Corporation reported a record setting $20.68 BILLION in new
committed CapEx in 2024. To illustrate the significance of this
investment, 2023 reported a record full year committed CapEx at $28.7
Billion. 2024 is on pace to dwarf those already record-breaking figures.



These large numbers reflect both new businesses coming to Indiana and
existing businesses expanding. Committed CapEx refers to capital
expenditures made by companies to take on new projects or expansions.
Simply put, committed CapEx is how much money is being invested in
growing business in Indiana.



When it comes to committed CapEx, a rising tide lifts all boats. When
there are large investments that create new, high-paying jobs, whole
communities and regions benefit! For example, the new $3.7 Billion
microchip facility announced to be built in West Lafayette will:

Retain talent from Purdue University and prevent brain drain from the
state. Raise the average income in the community, flooding the area with
new dollars that will be spent with local and small businesses in the
area like restaurants, coffee shops, etc. Indiana has taken the lead in
this high-wage job sector of the future which will provide a thriving
economy. Committed CapEx across Indiana empowers communities to thrive
and compete in the economy of the future. Republican leadership has
turned the state into an economic powerhouse, with low costs of living,
higher wages, tax cuts, and a welcoming environment for entrepreneurs.
Indiana's economy is booming and ready to outpace competitors!



Below you can find more facts and figures that show how Indiana’s
economy is thriving under Republican leadership - despite the
incompetence in the White House.
