Statement from State Sen. Vaneta Becker
State Sen. Vaneta Becker (R-Evansville) made the following statement
regarding the conclusion of the 2025 legislative session:
STATEHOUSE – “This session has been a particularly challenging one. A wide array of bills have been passed, including our biennial budget.
“I believe more funding should have been provided for public schools, and I am disappointed to see more money put toward vouchers in 2027 to anyone, including millionaires. I am also in disagreement with the bill to make school board elections partisan, as I think it is not in the best interest of students or our communities.
“Though there were things we could have improved on, I do think we have done well in our efforts to lower health care costs in the future.”
