Lieutenant Governor Suzanne Crouch Makes Us Proud

Proud to have been born and raised in Evansville, Indiana, Suzanne previously served as Indiana’s State Auditor from January 2014 through December 2016.

Before becoming auditor, she served as the state representative for House District 78, which encompasses parts of Vanderburgh and Warrick Counties. She was elected to the seat in 2005, and served as the Vice Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee and on the Public Health Committee. Throughout her years of public service, Suzanne has been focused and committed to programs and services for people with disabilities. She was honored to receive the 2012 Public Policy Award from the Arc of Indiana for her work with people with disabilities and was named Legislator of the Year in 2011 by the Indiana Association of Rehabilitation Facilities.

Prior to serving in the House of Representatives, Suzanne spent eight years as auditor of Vanderburgh County. During that time, her office received its first clean bill of health in decades from the State Board of Accounts. She then went on to serve as a Vanderburgh County Commissioner until joining the House. She presided as president of that body during her third year in office.

As Lt. Governor, Suzanne oversees a portfolio that includes the Indiana State Department of Agriculture, Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority, Office of Community and Rural Affairs and Indiana Destination Development Corporation. In addition, she also serves as President of the Indiana Senate, chair of the Indiana Women’s Suffrage Centennial Commission, chair of the Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Task Force, chair of the Indiana 2020 Census Committee and oversees the Next Level Veterans initiative and the Next Level Connections initiative.

Suzanne graduated from Mater Dei High School in Evansville. She then went on to receive her Bachelor’s Degree from Purdue University, majoring in Political Science, and four years later met her husband Larry Downs. Together they have a grown daughter, Courtney.

  1. Very nice and informative article. She would make an excellent Governor after Holcomb’s term ends.

    • I agree.

      There is one thing that gives me great pleasure at that thought:

      JOSE Proud Boy will not be able to vote for Suzanne Crouch. Poor Guy. He’ll be Florida resident and won’t be able to vote in Indiana!

      That’s the way that works. Like the rest of the trash people living in our Indiana communities, one day, luckily for us, they decide “they’re moving to FLORIDA!”

      And we all sigh with relief because, well, they are MOVING TO FLORIDA.

      Like JoseProudBoy who used to post here at the CCO! He joined all the other trash and moved to Florida too. Home of America’s trash: People who moved to Florida!

      Good luck down there Jose!

      How about that? Wonderful that is.
