John,

 

Governor Holcomb’s effort to create thousands of Hoosier jobs has never stopped and the results continue to be felt throughout the state in MAJOR ways.

 

Just in the few weeks since the legislative session ended, multiple Fortune 500 companies have been eager to do business in Indiana –– and they’ve committed to create over 3,000 new jobs and invest more than $900 million into the Hoosier economy.

 

I’ve included a few articles below that break down these developments.
