The Indiana Chamber of Commerce announced on Tuesday its endorsement of State Senator Kyle Walker in his re-election campaign for Senate District 31. Senate District 31 encompasses parts of Hamilton and Marion counties, including all of Fishers and part of Lawrence.
In its endorsement, the Chamber noted Walker’s record on economic development, jobs, cutting taxes and improving the quality of life metrics important to Indiana employers and growing the state’s economy.
“Senator Walker has led on key issues to fuel economic development and support job growth, accelerate entrepreneurial activity, strengthen public safety and improve quality of life,” said Indiana Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Kevin Brinegar. “He is an innovative, pro-jobs leader that’s making an impact to grow the Indiana economy and his district.”
During the 2022 legislative session, Walker authored economic development legislation (SEA 245) to attract sports, convention and tourism events to Indiana, which generate revenue, drive economic development and bring visitors to the Hoosier State. He also authored legislation (SEA 166) to help local communities leverage private investment for key infrastructure projects.
During the 2021 budget session, Walker supported a $1.1 billion income tax cut for Hoosiers, which – when fully implemented – will be tied for the lowest income tax rate in the country. He also worked to secure funding to support technology, innovation and entrepreneurial efforts at the Indiana Internet of Things (IoT) Lab based in Fishers, which will be used to expand programming and development of IoT Labs across the state.
“I’m grateful to the Indiana Chamber of Commerce for its endorsement and the meaningful work it does to support and grow Indiana jobs, businesses and our economy,” Walker said. “In the Senate, I will continue to advance policies that allow businesses in our district to thrive, bring jobs to our region, support entrepreneurship and improve quality of life for all residents.”
