Lt. Gov. Crouch statement on Gov. Holcomb’s 2022 State of the State address

Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch offered the following statement following Gov. Eric Holcomb’s 2022 State of the State address:

“Our state’s fiscally responsible investments continue to make Indiana a leader in the Midwest and nation for families and businesses. Our incredible growth has taken us to a low unemployment rate that we haven’t experienced in more than 20 years, and Indiana is reaping the benefits that our neighboring states envy.

I applaud Governor Eric Holcomb for his vision to navigate these unprecedented times. I look forward to another year of investing in our infrastructure, recruiting talent for our businesses and keeping Indiana a low tax state.

Additionally, I look forward to reducing the stigma of mental health, expanding mental health services for all Hoosiers and growing the number of behavioral health professionals in Indiana.

2022 brings new opportunities to make Indiana the best it can be, and we have great momentum to ensure all Hoosiers have equal opportunities to succeed in their lives and livelihoods.”

The Lieutenant Governor constitutionally serves as the President of the Indiana Senate, statutorily serves as the Secretary of Agriculture and Rural Development, chairs the Indiana Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Task Force and oversees four state agencies.
