2025 Huntington Heritage Days
The Huntington Heritage Days Parade will be held tomorrow, June 14 at 10 a.m., and I encourage community members to join us in celebration of this annual event! The parade proceeds from
Huntington North High School, follows MacGahan Street to Jefferson Street, proceeds through the middle of downtown Huntington and concludes at the courthouse before the railroad tracks. Parade judges and commentators will be located at Lake City Bank.
I will be taking part in this year's parade, tossing out shirts and candy. I hope to see everyone there!

Expanding Housing Access Across Indiana
|
In recent years, communities across Indiana have been working to bring more housing options to the state.
This year, I supported a bill that builds on previous efforts to construct new housing developments in Indiana.
House Enrolled Act 1005 will:
- Bolster the Residential Housing Infrastructure Assistance Program (RIF), a revolving loan fund that helps local governments work on infrastructure projects that support housing projects;
- Give participants in the RIF program priority if they also support affordable, pro-housing policies; and
- Streamline the permitting process by allowing qualified third-party inspectors to perform plan reviews or inspections.
