Welcoming Our New Adminstration


John,



This week the Indiana GOP welcomed Governor Mike Braun's new administration,
celebrating as Governor Braun was sworn in alongside Lieutenant Governor Micah
Beckwith and Attorney General Todd Rokita. Wasting no time, Governor Braun's
administration hit the ground running, issuing a slew of courageous and
necessary executive orders that will usher in a new period in our state's
history, centered around integrity and efficiency in state government.



At Indiana GOP HQ, we’re excited to continue supporting Governor Braun's
administration as he continues to fight for Hoosiers, as well as our Republican
leaders in the General Assembly and Washington. In November, our party received
a hard-earned and historic mandate, and we are dedicated to delivering on the
Freedom and Opportunity agenda that propelled us to victory.



Thank you for all you do!







Erin Lucas, Indiana GOP Interim Chairwoman

Governor Braun is sworn into office, becoming Indiana's 52nd Governor!



Governor Mike Braun took the Oath of Office on January the 13, 2025,

What he said: "As the physical 'Crossroads of America,' Indiana is perfectly
situated to lead our nation through the proverbial crossroads we now face. Let
us listen to the entrepreneurial spirit that dwells within so many of us, the
path of optimism to be pursued, so others may follow.



I am committed to be a governor of not just words but action, as we create a
prosperous future for all Hoosiers. It will take teamwork. It will take
partnership. It will take collaboration. This is why we should all feel a
spirit of optimism. Now it’s time to get to work!
