DISTRICTS AND LEGISLATORS
Determining Your Legislative Districts and Legislators
The Indiana House is comprised of 100 single-member districts, with all 100 members elected every two years in even-numbered (General Election) years. The Indiana Senate is comprised of 50 single-member districts, with half the members elected to a four-year term every two years.
How to Find Your Legislators
To find your legislative district and Hoosier legislators in the Indiana House of Representatives, Indiana Senate, and United States House of Representatives, go to http://in.gov/legislative/index.htm and click “Who’s Your Legislator?”. To obtain information about your legislators, click his or her name.
How to Contact Your Legislators
In addition to contacting them at home on most weekends during the legislative session, you can reach your legislators by mail, by telephone and (in most cases) by e-mail. For additional information on contacting your legislators, click here.
How and What to Communicate with Your Legislators
If you have not previously contacted your legislators, doing so for the first time can be intimidating. Remember that they are your elected representatives in Indiana government, and you have a right to communicate with and to “lobby” them, based on your views.
