Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

John,

 

This month marks a time of transition for our party, but one thing remains constant: the strength and resilience of our grassroots. I am honored to step into the role of Interim Chairwoman and continue the impactful work we’ve accomplished together.

As we move forward into 2025, our focus will remain on empowering local leaders and strengthening grassroots engagement across Indiana. Together, we’ll continue to build a movement that connects with voters, delivers results, and ensures a brighter future for Hoosiers in every corner of the state.

We have accomplished so much as a party this year. So, please use the upcoming holiday season to rest, recharge, and spend time with loved ones. We will come back together in 2025 ready to continue the great work our party does. 

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me and our team at State Party HQ with your ideas or questions—we are here to support you.

Wishing you a blessed holiday season.

Thank you for all you do!

Erin Lucas, Indiana GOP Interim Chairwoman
