On the recordMarch 17, 2021
Today, I rise to honor Indiana Secretary of State Connie Lawson. Since 2012, Connie has overseen Indiana's elections and modernized how Hoosiers and businesses interact with the State. Connie championed comprehensive election reforms that included election security and expanded our voting access for Hoosiers. Connie is a fierce advocate for Hoosiers to be financially literate and has advocated high schools offer a free financial class to all students. Connie modernized State government departments by implementing an efficient one-stop portal for businesses to register, file, report, and make payments to State agencies. Prior to being secretary of state, Connie served 16 years in the Indiana State Senate and, before that, was clerk of the Hendricks County Circuit Court. I congratulate Connie on her retirement. On behalf of all Hoosiers, we will miss your 33 years of dedicated public service. ____________________
