Supporting our Military, Veterans

America's active-duty military and veterans put their lives on the line to protect our country and freedoms.

Here are some laws I have supported in recent years to demonstrate our appreciation for our men and women in uniform.

State income earned from active or reserve military service is now exempt from Indiana's income tax.
More veterans are now eligible for the disabled veteran property-tax deduction.
A new Green Alert Program will help locate at-risk missing veterans.
Catastrophically disabled veterans can now hunt on the same free hunting days designated for youth hunters.

Local Assistance for Veterans and their Families

County Veteran Service Officers (CVSOs) can connect veterans with valuable resources they earned because of their military service.

CVSOs are available in all 92 counties and work with the Indiana Department of Veterans Affairs, the United States Department of Veterans Affairs and veteran service organizations to help veterans and their families identify and apply for benefits they may be eligible to receive.

Thank You, Indiana National Guard

Each day, I am grateful for the fifty brave men and women (pictured above) who are deployed in El Paso, Texas as a part of Operation Lone Star.

Thank you for protecting Hoosiers from illegal human trafficking and drug trafficking activity at the border.
