Listening & Leading

It's been another busy week for your Indiana GOP. It didn’t look like we had originally planned with 1,800 delegates together in Indianapolis, but this week voting finally concluded as part of our 2020 Indiana Republican State Convention.

Congratulations to our attorney general nominee, Todd Rokita. Our team is organized, energized and ready to deliver victories for Governor Holcomb, Lt. Governor Crouch, Todd Rokita and Republicans up and down the ballot in November.

And earlier this week, I'm excited to finally share a program that's long been in the works for us -- the Indiana Republican Diversity Leadership Series. Through this program, we'll work to bring more historically underrepresented communities into civic leadership roles. We'll achieve this by hosting monthly seminar-style classes and by providing mentorship as the members of our to-be-recruited class look to grow their involvement in our party. It's a continuation of the listening and learning we as a party have been undertaking -- and will continue undertaking. 

If you know anyone interested, please encourage them to check out our website, ask questions and apply. 

And, of course, all of that news is on top of another record fundraising quarter for Governor Holcomb (more details below). Hoosier like leadership, and that's what they see from him daily. 

It’s been a week of listening and leading. It’s what we do at your Indiana Republican Party and what we’ll continue to do everyday to serve you.

- Chairman Kyle Hupfer

P.S. We did a few media interviews this week on our new Indiana Republican Diversity Leadership Series. Here's one of them from the IndyStar -- check it out. 
Governor Holcomb's Week That Was

Indiana: Back on Track

Today, Governor Holcomb is in Evansville as he joins the Southwest Indiana Chamber of Commerce for their (socially distanced) luncheon. He was excited to discuss how Indiana is getting safely back on track, and how together we’re taking steps to continue fighting this pandemic.

One way we’re fighting the pandemic is by using the right PPE when we’re out and about, including wearing a cloth face mask. On Wednesday, we received an update on how Governor Holcomb and his team are leading the way when it comes to providing Hoosier frontline workers, businesses and schools with the resources we need to mask up!

  • PPE For Schools: Governor Holcomb’s team is getting critical PPE to schools across the state – just in time to safely reopen schools for a new year. They have more than 3 million reusable masks available for students! In addition to masks, schools will also receive hand sanitizer. This program is available to all schools, and as of Tuesday this week, 472 Indiana school corporations are participating.
  • PPE For Businesses: As the Back on Track plan launched, so did the Indiana Small Business PPE Marketplace. Since May, it’s filled more than 30,000 orders to over 600 cities across Indiana, protecting thousands of Hoosiers on the job at our state’s small businesses! And now that requests are shifting, the state is launching the Indiana PPE Directory, which is directly connecting Hoosiers with our local businesses that manufacture or distribute PPE. You can check it out here.

We have so much to be thankful for here in Indiana, and that includes Governor Holcomb’s leadership as we continue to navigate this pandemic.

Another Record Fundraising Quarter
 
Governor Holcomb had another record-setting fundraising quarter. After pausing campaign activity in March and fully focusing on leading Indiana through this pandemic, Governor Holcomb closed the second quarter of 2020 with $8.05 million cash on hand. This impressive total includes $1.48 million raised in less than one month of active fundraising during the quarter. You can read more about his fundraising totals here.
 
There’s no doubt about it – Hoosiers appreciate results-driven leadership, they’ve witnessed it firsthand, and the numbers prove that they like what they see!

The Convention Results Are In

It was an unconventional convention, but we were excited to have our delegates fully engaged, with 98% of all ballots returned.

Congratulations to Lt. Governor Suzanne Crouch for her unanimous re-nomination. The delegates’ voices have been heard and Todd Rokita will be the Republican nominee for attorney general. We’re looking forward to more Republican victories in November!

 
Apply for the Indiana Republican Diversity Leadership Series
 
This week, we were excited to officially announce the Indiana Republican Diversity Leadership Series, a seminar and leadership training program that will provide the preparation and resources needed to increase the engagement of minority Republican leaders in Indiana.
 
This program is open to Hoosiers of all backgrounds and all ages as we work to bring more historically underrepresented communities into civic leadership.
